The Hacks


Aug 18, 2020

In this episode of The Hacks, Tom and Chunga are talking about cyber hygiene.

Recently, at Black Hat Virtual, Tom gave a speech about how most companies are focused on dealing with infrastructure vulnerabilities in a way that doesn't actually protect their organization as much as it should.

Unfortunately, Tom says when most people look at their digital infrastructure, they build a defense strategy from the outside in; which is the exact opposite of how it should be done. When an organization scans for vulnerabilities, oftentimes they do so without any actual method to fix them.

What percentage of companies are practicing a legitimate level of cyber hygiene? Tom says it's very low. That said, he has some ideas and steps that can be taken right away that can help. Listen now!
