In this Soap Box podcast Patrick Gray talks to Material Security’s CEO and co-founder Abishek Agrawal about the security problems inherent to modern productivity suites. Does it make sense that threat actors can authenticate to o365 and Workspace accounts and clean them out entirely? Years of mail, years of files? Material Security has built a product that tackles this issue. It can lock up email archives behind MFA challenges, redact PII from inboxes, better control files share via Google Drive and OneDrive, and just generally limit the damage a threat actor can inflict when they compromise a cloud productivity account. Even if you’re not interested in buying a product to tackle this, we think this one is a great listen.

In this edition of the Soap Box we hear from Mike Wiacek and Eric Foster from Stairwell. Stairwell makes a product that collects and analyses every executable file in your environment. You deploy file collectors to your systems and they forward all new files to Stairwell for manual and automated analysis. You can do a lot of really cool analysis once you have all that stuff in the same place. But as you’ll hear, Stairwell is broadening out the use cases for its platform. You don’t want to forward files from every system? You don’t have to. It’s still very useful as an analysis platform. It’s sort of like VirusTotal, but private and with a bunch more bells and whistles. There’s also a bunch of sharing tools in the platform, which gives it a “social network for CTI nerds” flavour.

In this joint Risky Business and Geopolitics Decanted feature interview, Patrick Gray and Dmitri Alperovitch talk to Illia Vitiuk, the Head of the Department of Cyber and Information Security of the Security Service of Ukraine (SBU) about the cyber dimension to Russia’s invasion. From turning off Ukraine’s power grid with a cyber attack in 2015 to the Viasat hack in 2022, Russia’s intelligence services are world renowned for executing creative destructive cyber campaigns. Despite this, after a year and a half of Russia waging war on Ukraine its power grid is up, its telcos are functioning and its banks are still processing transactions. How has Ukraine been able to withstand Russia’s onslaught in the cyber domain? Vitiuk joins us to reveal insights into how Russian intelligence services are operating in Ukraine, and how the SBU is countering them.

This Soap Box edition of the podcast is sponsored by Proofpoint. Proofpoint offers email security and DLP products and services, and they’re probably best known for being the biggest email security company on the planet. That means they process a LOT of emails in the hopes of throttling the number of malicious emails that organisations have to deal with, whether that’s malware, phishing or BEC. So, with that in mind, what role could large language models play in email security? Now that the initial ChatGPT hype has died off a little, we spoke with Proofpoint’s VP of cybersecurity strategy Ryan Kalember about large language models and how they’re going to help defenders and attackers alike.

In this edition of the Soap Box podcast we’re going to be talking about a great topic – living off the land. The recent Volt Typhoon report out of Microsoft chronicled the adventures of a Chinese APT crew in US critical infrastructure. But one of the most fascinating aspects of the Volt Typhoon campaign was that the attackers almost exclusively used so-called living off the land techniques. So the question becomes – what can you do about an attacker in your environment who has privilege and isn’t using malware? Guests David Cottingham and Daniel Schell, the CEO and CTO of Airlock Digital, join the show to talk it through.

Today’s soap box is an absolute cracker. We’re talking to Andy Robbins, the principal product architect at SpecterOps and one of the three original creators of the original open source version of Bloodhound. If you don’t know what Bloodhound is, it’s a tool that grabs Active Directory information and turns it into a navigable graph. So if you’re an attacker you land on a network, enumerate directory information, and then map out a path to domain admin. Bloodhound has been extremely popular with red teamers for years – to the point that it’s just a standard tool in the red team toolkit. But the team behind Bloodhound is now turning their attention to making Bloodhound a defensive tool as well as an offensive tool.

In this interview we’re chatting with the founder of Greynoise Intelligence, Andrew Morris. Greynoise operates a global network of sensors that collect data on things like mass scanning, exploitation and reconnaissance.

And as you’ll hear, there are other use cases also, but we’re talking about a few things with Andrew today.

Today’s Soap Box guest is an industry legend – Metasploit creator HD Moore. He’s here to tell us more about what’s happening with his latest creation, Rumble Network Discovery. If you’re not familiar with Rumble, well, you should be. It’s a network scanner that you just set loose and it will go and find all the devices on your network.
