    Telling the Stories of Cybercrime | An Interview with Geoff White | An Analog Brain In A Digital Age With Marco Ciappelli
    2026/05/24
    PODCAST EPISODE | An Analog Brain In A Digital Age With Marco Ciappelli Geoff White goes where organized crime and technology cross, and he comes back with stories. In this one he announces his newest BBC series — the rise and fall of the Conti ransomware gang — and we get into the thing underneath all of it: how you make a crime nobody can see feel real to people who will never see it. 📺 Watch | 🎙️ Listen | marcociappelli.com There was a red light. A sign, really — ON AIR — that lit up the second a broadcast began, and everyone in the room understood it without a word. Quiet. We're live. I grew up around that light. Geoff White and I opened this conversation laughing about it, because you still catch it hanging behind some podcasters, a little piece of analog theater none of us can quite bring ourselves to retire. We kept the light. What we lost is the patience. Geoff is an investigative journalist — the kind other journalists call when they want to know what actually happened. He works where organized crime and technology cross, and his complaint about modern news is one I share. We get the big bang: something was hacked, data leaked, a hospital went dark. Then the cycle moves on before anyone asks the only questions that matter. How did it work? Who did it? Should I be worried? He told me he once had four minutes on Channel 4 News to explain Bitcoin. Four minutes. He called it impossible, and he's right — but the deeper trouble is that we've trained ourselves to believe four minutes is enough. That reading the headline is the same as reading the story. It isn't. It never was. What pulled me in was the subject of his new BBC series. Conti — one of the most profitable ransomware gangs the world has seen — does not look like the hooded figure in the stock photo. It looks like a company. Payroll. Sick pay. Annual leave. A training program. Strategy meetings. A translation department, because a ransom note full of spelling mistakes doesn't get taken seriously, and these people cared, deeply, about being taken seriously. Someone, on some ordinary Tuesday, had to ask who was running payroll that month. While the gang was shutting down hospitals. I keep turning that over. We like our villains monstrous and separate; it's more comfortable that way. But a criminal enterprise that runs on bonus schemes and brand reputation isn't a monster from the deep. It's a mirror, doing what the rest of us do, with the morality removed. Geoff says the most fascinating part of the 300,000 leaked messages — spilled because a war split the gang in two — is the mundanity. I believe him. The horror isn't that these people are alien. It's that they're familiar. And this is where he and I actually agree on the work. He says you need three things to tell a story, and he reaches for Star Wars to prove it: a victim, a villain, a hero. For years cybercrime refused that shape — the heroes wanted the spotlight, the villains stayed silent, the victims ran. What changed is that the villains started talking. They leak themselves into the open now. Which means, for the first time, the story can actually be told. That's the part people get wrong about cybersecurity. They think the hard part is the technology. It isn't. The hard part is making an invisible crime feel real to someone who will never see it — no broken window, no smoke, just a screen that stopped working. You cannot patch your way to that. You have to tell it. A name. A face. A beginning, a middle, an end. Which is the most analog thing I can imagine. The most digital crime of our age still has to be carried into people's heads the way stories always have. That isn't a weakness. That's the thing worth carrying forward. Geoff's new BBC series, Cyber Hack — the Conti story — is coming; you'll find it linked below. And if you like conversations that take the long way around, the newsletter lives at marcociappelli.com. The red light still means something. Some of us are still on air.

  • After RSAC Conference 2026, Reflecting on Agentic AI, Community, and the Evolution of Cybersecurity | A Brand Highlight at RSAC Conference 2026 with Tony Anscombe, Chief Security Evangelist of ESET

    After RSAC Conference 2026, Reflecting on Agentic AI, Community, and the Evolution of Cybersecurity | A Brand Highlight at RSAC Conference 2026 with Tony Anscombe, Chief Security Evangelist of ESET
    2026/05/23

    Agentic AI was the theme that pulled away from the pack at RSAC Conference 2026. Tony Anscombe of ESET makes the case that once AI shifts from being directed by humans to operating with its own objectives and logic, the security surface changes with it, and organizations are being forced to rethink what they protect and how.

    At the show, ESET announced two products that meet that moment head on. The ESET AI Skills Checker is a free-to-use tool coming to market. ESET AI Protection looks inside AI sessions on the endpoint, flagging sensitive data leakage, malicious links returned by AI systems, and suspicious behavior, and surfacing it all inside normal cybersecurity operations for investigation, blocking, or detection.

    Tony closes with a reminder worth keeping. His first RSA was in 1998, and the technology he worked on then (sandboxing, dynamic code, remote windowing, encryption, authentication) mirrors a lot of what walks the RSAC Conference floor today. The packaging evolves, the core principles do not. Build forward, but do not lose sight of what the past already proved.

    This is a Brand Highlight. A Brand Highlight is a ~5 minute introductory conversation designed to put a spotlight on the guest and their company. Learn more: https://www.studioc60.com/creation#highlight

  • Tackling the Trust Crisis: Inside the 2026 HITRUST Trust Report | A Brand Spotlight Conversation with Vincent Bennekers, VP of Quality at HITRUST | Hosted by Sean Martin

    Tackling the Trust Crisis: Inside the 2026 HITRUST Trust Report | A Brand Spotlight Conversation with Vincent Bennekers, VP of Quality at HITRUST | Hosted by Sean Martin
    2026/05/23
    Cybersecurity assurance was supposed to give boards, regulators, customers, and partners a clear answer to one question: can the security of the organizations they depend on actually be trusted? In 2026, that answer is harder than ever to come by. Supply chains are sprawling, attackers are pivoting through third parties, and too many assurance reports still rely on questionnaires, self-attestations, and frameworks that have not kept pace with the threat landscape. The 2026 HITRUST Trust Report calls that gap what it is: a Trust Crisis. In this Brand Spotlight, Vincent Bennekers, VP of Quality at HITRUST, walks through what four years of performance data across thousands of certified environments now show: 99.62% of HITRUST-certified environments remained breach-free in 2025. That stands in stark contrast to industry surveys reporting that more than 40% of organizations have experienced a breach. Vincent Bennekers is direct on why the numbers hold up: prescriptive controls, a centralized quality review, and an assurance methodology built for measurable outcomes rather than checkbox compliance. Healthcare makes the point even sharper. HITRUST examined the top fifty breaches on the HHS OCR breach portal, the public listing some in the industry refer to as the wall of shame. None of them occurred in a HITRUST-certified environment. For an industry that consistently ranks as the most breached and the most expensive to breach, that is a signal worth pausing on. Quality of the report itself matters as much as the framework behind it. Vincent Bennekers describes a layered review model with automated and manual checks, independent reviewers, and centralized HITRUST quality assurance prior to issuance. Every certification HITRUST issues goes through that same review. Stakeholders consuming any other assurance report should be asking exactly how its integrity is being ensured, and what is actually behind the stamp. Supply chain risk is the throughline. The 2025 Verizon Data Breach Investigations Report found third-party-involved breaches doubled, climbing from 15% to 30%. HITRUST requires service provider coverage, mandatory in the r2 assessment and optional but heavily adopted in the e1 and i1, where over 80% of organizations are choosing to address service provider controls thanks to a streamlined inheritance model. The report closes with a five-step roadmap for stakeholders: shift from flexible compliance to threat-intelligent assurance, verify assurance report integrity, reduce supply chain exposure, secure AI implementations through prescriptive controls, and reassess the definition of good information security assurance. Vincent Bennekers is clear that AI belongs in this conversation now, with HITRUST offering AI certification to address risks across data protection, model integrity, and automated decision-making.
