Risky Business #632 -- The Kaseya incident wasn't nearly as big as we thought

On this week’s show Patrick Gray and Adam Boileau discuss recent security news, including: Analysis suggests the Kaseya REvil incident was actually a bit of a fizzer They also obtained a decrypt key and no one knows how EU to follow US Treasury on Bitcoin controls Israeli Government has eyes on NSO fallout PetitPotam Active Directory technique is very bad news Much, much more… This week’s show is brought to you by Remediant. Remediant makes a PAM solution that’s, well, quite different from the traditional password-vault style solutions. That’s put them in an interesting situation lately with Gartner. Remediant scored an honourable mention as a PAM to take note of, alongside Microsoft, but the thing is they don’t even qualify as a PAM vendor under Gartner’s own criteria. This might mean the analyst firms need to re-jig the way they evaluate and rank tech given there are so many more ways to skin cats these days. Remediant co-founder Paul Lanzi will join me in this week’s sponsor slot to talk through all of that. Links to everything that we discussed are below and you can follow Patrick or Adam on Twitter if that’s your thing.
