Episode 85: Reenergizing Collective Action at RSAC 2024
In episode 85 of Cybersecurity Where You Are, co-hosts Sean Atkinson and Tony Sager are live from Booth 4319 at RSA Conference (RSAC) 2024. Together, they discuss how events like RSAC 2024 reenergize collective action in the cybersecurity industry. They begin by noting how resources such as the CIS Community Defense Model (CDM) bring more data and transparency to security recommendations for the cybersecurity industry. They then look back on some of Tony's presentations at prior years of RSAC before looking at the interest surrounding supply chain security, zero trust, and artificial intelligence (AI). To address these developments, organizations must create a foundation for defense and scale rapid improvements, needs which Tony and Sean see as opportunities for collective action in the industry.

In episode 84 of Cybersecurity Where You Are, co-host Tony Sager is joined by Brian de Vallance, Senior Advisor at Cambridge Global Advisors; and Phyllis Lee, VP of Security Best Practices (SBP) Content Development at the Center for Internet Security® (CIS®). Together, they discuss the notion of reasonable cybersecurity. They begin by providing some background about reasonableness in cybersecurity and identifying the problem we need to solve — namely, the lack of a definition of reasonableness around which organizations can build their cybersecurity program. They then discuss how a definition for reasonable cybersecurity needs to include security best practices that are doable. They conclude by exploring how CIS's work around this topic may influence its content development going forward.
