Why More Hackers Are Logging On Than Breaking In
We’ve heard it before – hacker tactics are not changing, but the hackers are getting a lot smarter in how they deploy their time-tested attacks.
Additionally, honing in on the human element of cybersecurity is nothing new. We’ve spoken with numerous guests about getting buy-in, improving training, and how creating a cyber-receptive culture is key in getting any cybersecurity plan to stick.
But Dave Taku, Head of Product Management and User Experience at RSA, and our guest for this episode, offers some unique takes on how these two key variables are intersecting to create new challenges in industrial cybersecurity. He also discusses recent findings found in RSA's ID IQ Research report. Watch/listen as we discuss:
- How attacks are focusing more on humans than networks or systems.
- Evolving hacking strategies like prompt bombing that's focused on stealing credentials or bypassing logins.
- The role AI can play in establishing ways to improve employee training and address the biggest threat to OT security - people.
- Ways to manage remote access without sacrificing identity security best practices.
- Strategies that make zero trust and other identity security tools more user-friendly.
- How AI is helping manufacturers establish priorities in achieving asset visibility.
