Face to face with controversy.

Next week, California will hold a major election on Tuesday, November 4, amid heightened cyber risk and increased exposure to potential attacks. With the ongoing government shutdown and reduced grant funding for local counties overseeing the elections, vulnerabilities are growing. Sanny Liao, Co-Founder and CTO of Fable Security, joins to discuss the biggest cyber threats to this election, how attackers could exploit phishing or other tactics to gain access, and where counties should focus training to detect and prevent malicious activity.

From alerts to aborts.

Regulation is a double-edged sword. While it helps create structure, establish accountability, and set standards, it also creates unnecessary hurdles, slower response times, and overly rigid systems. With every administration, policy goals and subsequently regulatory stances change, which can have major impacts on business operations.

In this episode of CISO Perspectives, host ⁠Kim Jones⁠ sits down with Ben Yelin, from the University of Maryland Center for Cyber Health and Hazard Strategies, to discuss the current state of regulation. Throughout the conversation, Ben and Kim discuss how the current administration views regulations and the future role of the federal government.
