In this edition of Between Two Nerds Tom Uren and The Grugq discuss whether cyber operations are any good at deterrence. Tom thinks that attributes of the domain mean that it is just no good for deterrence. The Grugq, however, thinks that it can be, although perhaps not in a state vs state context.

Snake Oilers isn’t our regular weekly podcast, it’s a wholly sponsored series we do at Risky.Biz where vendors come on to the show to pitch their products to you, the Risky Business listener. To be clear – everyone you hear in one of these editions, paid to be here.

We’ll hear from three vendors in this edition of Snake Oilers:

• Socket.dev, a software supply chain product that currently deploys as a GitHub addon
• Teleport, a company that makes a secure access gateway/single sign on product for engineers to securely access infrastructure
• Mandiant joins us to pitch its Purple Team engagement product

Enjoy!

In this podcast Patrick Gray talks to Tom Uren about a report by CSC 2.0 that recommends the US government designate space systems as critical infrastructure. Lots of satellites systems are already covered under other critical infrastructure sectors such as communication or defence, but Tom agrees that there are some good reasons to carve out a space-specific critical infrastructure sector.

They also talk about the US State Department working on developing a portfolio of cyber diplomacy “offerings”, ranging from disaster relief funding, to technical capacity building, through to policy-level cyber education. This seems like a great idea.

In this edition of Between Two Nerds Tom Uren and The Grugq discuss the UK’s National Cyber Force’s recently published “Responsible Cyber Power in Practice” document. The Grugq thinks he’s been plagiarised, while Tom wonders whether the NCF’s “doctrine of cognitive effects” highlights the limits of cyber operations. It’s a good document and will be influential in shaping how people discuss offensive operations (those that disrupt, degrade, destroy etc).
