1. Exploring the latest FortiGuard Labs Threat Report – Derek Manky – ESW Vault
As a special treat for this week's vault episode, we set up a conversation with Derek Manky to discuss Fortinet's FortiGuard Labs Threat Report. This is a bi-annual report put out by FortiGuard Labs, and in my opinion, it just keeps getting better and better. The report is chock full of actionable information and insights. It answered all my questions about the current state of threats and attacks, like:
- What is the latest big shift in strategy and focus for ransomware groups?
- I keep hearing that attackers are getting faster and faster - how much time to defenders actually have these days (to patch a critical vuln, for example)?
- What are the latest attack techniques being used? Which are used less, or never used?
There's not a dull moment in this conversation - I hope you enjoy listening to or watching it as much as I did making it!
