    Measuring Security Risk Against Dynamic Threats

    Getting dressed is a routine example of everyday life packed with choices. Should I wear pants or shorts? Do I need a sweater? Shoes or sandals? While we often make these choices subconsciously, even actions that don’t appear as choices include several microscopic risk-based calculations.

    These judgments are executed based on some estimate of risk, and as known in the cybersecurity industry, what is believed to be safe today may no longer be safe tomorrow (or possibly even within the hour). Given this unique challenge, how do you establish a process that allows you to identify, analyze, prioritize, and treat security risks that are constantly evolving and where the threat is persistently adapting?

    In this podcast, ISACA's Lisa Cook discusses with Adobe's Matt Carroll, Senior Manager of Technology Governance, Risk, and Compliance the risk methodology and practices his team has developed at Adobe that have helped the company rapidly measure security risk in a constantly changing landscape.

    A View into CTEM Exposure Management: Reducing your Attack Surface 3x

    Organizations can no longer rely on legacy vulnerability management solutions to protect against even basic attacks. Instead, vulnerability management is just one small component in a unified continuous threat exposure management (CTEM) approach to securing an enterprise from malicious intruders and ransomware. In addition to vulnerability management, security around misconfigurations, patching, identity, software, external attack surfaces, and more must be included.

    In this ISACA Podcast, Nanitor Chief Strategist Derek Melber explains that an organization can prevent breaches and ransomware by taking an asset-centric prioritized-security approach that includes all of these security areas.

    Improving Security while Enabling Market Access with CCF

    Software-as-a-Service (SaaS) providers continue to face increasing customer demand to attain security compliance certifications that demonstrate commitment to security, privacy, confidentiality, and more. Pursuing every national and international certification individually results in a repetitive cycle of ongoing walkthroughs, interviews, testing, and evidence requests (i.e., audits).

    A central CCF can be considered a one-stop shop response to the complex alphabet soup of compliance standards on the market today.

    In this ISACA Podcast episode, ISACA's Chris McGowan listens in as Zach Folk, Director of Solutions Engineering explains why having a central CCF can help various product engineering teams meet their security compliance needs and understand the level of effort required for each compliance certification.
