This week’s sponsor interview is with Bernard Brantley, Corelight’s Chief Information Security Officer.
Corelight makes a network sensor you can use to plug in to your SIEM, among other things. It’s based on Zeek, the open source network sensor that Corelight maintains. Corelight is absolutely the industry standard for this sort of thing.
And they’ve just become the standard for something else, too: Microsoft Defender for IoT can now accept Corelight feeds. Bernard fills us in on that.

This week’s sponsor interview is with Paul Lanzi, co-founder of Remediant. Paul joins the show this week to talk about cyber insurance. It’s a topic that has come up a lot for us lately – ransomware has borderline sunk the current cyber insurance model as payments ballooned and payouts made a lot of insurers adjust premiums to the. But all is not lost – Paul says this blowup means the insurance industry is actually adapting and could wind up being a driver of better security practices.

In this week’s sponsor interview Thinkst Canary’s Marco Slaviero talks about some work they’ve done on introducing a “Safety Net” against AWS token enumeration edge cases. That’s a very interesting interview.
There is no weekly news show this week. Instead, we’re running this feature interview with Michael Montoya, the CISO of Equinix. This isn’t a sponsored interview or anything like that, this podcast was prepared with support from the Hewlett Foundation’s Cyber Initiative.
Equinix has 9,000 staff and operates 220 data centres globally. Its annual revenue is in the order of USD$6bn. In September 2020 it was attacked by criminals who deployed the Netwalker ransomware on its corporate network. The attackers demanded a USD$4.5m ransom payment for service restoration and to keep the data they stole from the company private.
This interview has taken a while to organise, but when I first found out Michael was open to the idea of talking through the incident I jumped at it. It’s extremely rare for CISOs to be made available to talk about events like this, but it’s something that should happen more often. We can learn a lot by dissecting these types of incidents publicly. Enjoy!
