    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. This is a Brand Spotlight. A Brand Spotlight is a ~15 minute conversation designed to explore the guest, their company, and what makes their approach unique.

  • The Vendor You Cannot Name | Lens Four by Sean Martin | Read by TAPE9

    The Vendor You Cannot Name | Lens Four by Sean Martin | Read by TAPE9
    2026/05/11
    ⬥EPISODE NOTES⬥ The most dangerous sentence in cybersecurity disclosure right now is "no evidence of unauthorized access to our network." It is technically true. It is also operationally hollow. The customer whose data is on a leak site does not care which network it left from. The plaintiff in Bexar County does not care. The regulator about to receive a federal incident report under a 72-hour clock that starts at suspicion, not confirmation, will not care. In April 2026, two U.S. banks disclosed an incident at the same unnamed third-party vendor. Six class action lawsuits followed in two weeks. The vendor still has not been publicly named. The plaintiffs sued the banks anyway. In a separate situation, an alleged Adobe breach surfaced through a threat actor's claims about a third-party business process outsourcing firm -- and as of the coverage reviewed for this analysis, no public confirmation or denial from Adobe had surfaced. This is the Common Point of Failure pattern, and it is arriving with enough frequency that it deserves to be named clearly. 🔍 In this edition of Lens Four: — Why "no evidence of unauthorized access to our network" leaves the data, the contract, and the customer out of the picture — and why that omission is doing real damage as regulators, plaintiffs, and customers all collapse the distinction between "our network" and "their network" — How the proposed CIRCIA rule's "reasonable belief" trigger changes the operating math when the suspected source is a third party: the 72-hour clock starts when the SOC analyst flags, not when the legal team confirms — What the NYDFS October 21 2025 industry letter on third-party service providers tells covered entities to do — and how the regulator's prescriptive guidance becomes the de facto checklist for audits, examinations, and enforcement — Why the cyber insurance market, per Woodruff Sawyer's annual Cyber Looking Ahead Guide, is now functioning as a verification mechanism — and why the underwriter and the regulator are now the ones shaping what gets bought, not the threat — Verizon's own analysis of its 2025 Data Breach Investigations Report — drawing on more than 22,000 incidents — found the share of breaches involving a third party doubled year over year, from 15% to 30% — Three things the network sentence leaves out: the data (where it lived, how it was stored, what controls applied), the operating model (how a vendor came to have enough access to produce customer harm), and the chain of accountability (the contractual relationship between named brand and unnamed vendor) — Why the vendor concentration the industry has been selling as "consolidation" for two decades is also the thing concentrating blast radius — and why discovery in the class actions, not voluntary disclosure, is the most likely path to actually naming the vendors — Two CISO conversations the Fourth Lens draws on: Tim Brown on what carries a security leader through the worst day of their career (trust built before the trust was needed, context, perspective, communication), and Joe Sullivan on building cyber teams the way fire departments are built — one team on the go, one on standby, one resting — The Fourth Lens: the program reality is that the named brand is accountable for things happening at a vendor it cannot directly control; the market reality is that the regulator and the insurer have already written the checklist; the messaging reality is that the disclosure language has not caught up to either Fourth Lens: The vendor whose name you do not know is the vendor whose risk you cannot manage. The fix is not in the disclosure language. It is in the operating model the disclosure language is currently helping to obscure. The next twelve to eighteen months — through the first CIRCIA enforcement action, the first court-ordered discovery that names a CPOF vendor, and whatever the next shared-vendor breach turns out to be — will start writing the answer to what a security program is actually for when the breach happens somewhere you cannot reach. 🔗 Full article and references: https://seanmartin.com/lens-four/the-vendor-you-cannot-name 📧 Subscribe to Lens Four: https://seanmartin.com/lens-four 🎙 Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast: https://redefiningcybersecuritypodcast.com 🎧 Music Evolves Podcast: https://musicevolvespodcast.com 🌐 ITSPmagazine: https://itspmagazine.com 🎬 Studio C60: https://studioc60.com Sean Martin is a cybersecurity market analyst, content strategist, and go-to-market advisor with more than 30 years of experience across engineering, product development, marketing, and media.

    Episode Notes

    From Apollo to Artemis: What Lowell Observatory Knows About Going Back to the Moon

    Fifty years is a long time to forget how to do something. That is, more or less, where NASA stood when Artemis 1 left the pad — and where it stands now, with Artemis 2 having put humans beyond low Earth orbit for the first time in half a century. The institutional memory had thinned. The people who built Apollo had moved on, retired, or passed away. The books, as Dr. Alex Polanski puts it in this episode, had to be dusted off.

    Polanski, a Percival Lowell postdoctoral fellow at Lowell Observatory in Flagstaff, Arizona, joins host Matt to talk about what Artemis 2 actually proved, and why Lowell — an observatory better known for its exoplanet work and its founder's obsession with Mars — has always sat closer to crewed spaceflight than most people realize. The nine Apollo astronauts trained on the volcanic terrain of northern Arizona. They studied lunar maps made at Lowell. They walked the same ground tourists walk today, in the shadow of the Clark refractor.

    The conversation moves from the geology of the Moon's Highlands and Maria to the meteorite work of Dr. Nick Moskowitz, the mapping happening at the USGS office down the road, and the longer question behind all of it: is the Moon a stepping stone to Mars, or a detour? Polanski makes the case for the stepping stone — not out of caution, but because there are things we don't yet know we need to know, and a one-second light delay is a much more forgiving classroom than a twenty-minute one.

    And then there's what comes next. Radio telescopes in the craters of the far side, shielded from Earth's noise. Optical interferometers spread across lunar real estate, free of the atmospheric wobble that makes ground-based astronomy feel, in Polanski's words, like reading a note card at the bottom of a pool. For the first time, the possibility of actually seeing the surfaces of other stars.

    Percival Lowell saw canals on Mars that weren't there. He may have been looking at the veins in his own eye. A century later, his observatory is helping figure out how to look at the real thing.

  • Book: Deep Future — Creating Technology That Matters | An Interview with Pablos Holman | An Analog Brain In A Digital Age With Marco Ciappelli

    Book: Deep Future — Creating Technology That Matters | An Interview with Pablos Holman | An Analog Brain In A Digital Age With Marco Ciappelli
    2026/05/04
    PODCAST EPISODE | An Analog Brain In A Digital Age With Marco Ciappelli Pablos Holman has built spaceships, zapped malaria-carrying mosquitoes with a laser, earned thousands of patents, and is now betting his venture capital on the inventors Silicon Valley forgot to fund. His new book, Deep Future: Creating Technology That Matters, is a call to arms against a tech industry that got drunk on software and forgot about the other 98% of the world. 📺 Watch | 🎙️ Listen | marcociappelli.com I grew up in a city full of inventors. They just didn't call themselves that. Florence in the fifteenth century wasn't running on venture capital. It was running on curiosity, obsession, and the refusal to accept that the way things had always been done was the way they had to be done. Leonardo didn't have a manual. Galileo didn't ask for permission before pointing a better telescope at the sky. They took things apart, looked at what was inside, and put them back together differently. They hacked things. That's Pablos Holman's word — and when he used it in our conversation, I recognized it immediately. Not as a tech industry term. As something much older. A way of being in the world that says: the instructions are a suggestion, not a ceiling. Pablos has had one of those careers that resists a tidy summary. He was writing code in Alaska as a kid, with one of the first Apples ever made and nobody around to teach him anything. He figured it out on his own — and never really stopped doing that. Cryptocurrency in the '90s. AI research before anyone called it that. Helping build spaceships at Blue Origin. Then years at the Intellectual Ventures Lab with Nathan Myhrvold, going after problems Silicon Valley had decided weren't worth the trouble: a laser that identifies and destroys malaria-carrying mosquitoes in flight, hurricane suppression systems, a nuclear reactor powered by nuclear waste. Six thousand patents. Thirty million TED Talk views. Now he runs a venture fund called Deep Future, and he's written a book with the same name. The subtitle says what he thinks about most of what Silicon Valley has been doing for the past two decades. Creating Technology That Matters. He calls the alternative shallow tech. Apps that replace taxis. Apps to rent a stranger's couch. Apps to have weed delivered by drone. Not useless, exactly — but not living up to what we actually have. And what we actually have, Pablos says, is the best toolkit in all of human history: more people, more education, more resources, more raw scientific understanding than any generation before us. If all that produces another chat app, something has gone badly wrong. The number he threw out in our conversation — and I'm going to mention it here because it deserves to be mentioned, not as a hook but as a quiet scandal — is that all the software companies in the world combined, every single one of them, account for about two percent of global GDP. The other ninety-eight is energy, shipping, food, manufacturing, construction, automotive. Industries that haven't fundamentally changed in a century. Industries that software can nudge a few percent better but cannot make ten times better. Ten times better is where Pablos starts. One of his portfolio companies is building autonomous sailing cargo ships — no crew, no fuel, no emissions — targeting a two-trillion-dollar industry that currently burns half its revenue on fuel. He's also continuing the malaria work that could save half a million lives a year, half of them children under five. That's the scale he's measuring things against. We got to AI eventually, as you do. What he said landed simply and cleanly: chatting is the least important thing we can do with it. What we should be using AI for is understanding things that were previously too complex to model — what's happening in every cell of your body, how to actually get a grip on the climate, how to start solving the problems that have been resistant to every tool that came before. Instead we are using it to generate fake videos and build an AI version of TikTok. We've hit peak entertainment, he said. I think that's right. And I think what comes after peak entertainment — if anything does — is the real question sitting underneath all of this. The conversation ended the way the best ones do: not with a conclusion, but with an invitation. Pick something you care about and work on it. The people who built Apollo weren't all rocket scientists. They were cable layers and logistics coordinators who never saw the rocket up close. But they were part of something that exceeded their own individuality, and they knew it, and that was enough. That pride is still available. Whether we want it more than we want another scroll — that's on us. Deep Future: Creating Technology That Matters is out now — find it here. Subscribe to the newsletter at marcociappelli.com.

  • Securing the Mini Me Era: Why Agent Identity Alone Is Not Enough | A Brand Highlight Conversation with Shreyans Mehta, Co-Founder and Chief Technology Officer of Cequence Security | Hosted by Sean Martin

    Securing the Mini Me Era: Why Agent Identity Alone Is Not Enough | A Brand Highlight Conversation with Shreyans Mehta, Co-Founder and Chief Technology Officer of Cequence Security | Hosted by Sean Martin
    2026/05/04

    Enterprises spent the last decade hardening the front door for human users. Now a new class of worker is showing up to the same applications, asking for the same data, and acting on someone else's behalf. Shreyans Mehta, Co-Founder and Chief Technology Officer of Cequence Security, joins ITSPmagazine to talk through what changes when ten or more agents are operating in your name across email, code repositories, Confluence, Salesforce, and ServiceNow at the same time.

    For Shreyans Mehta, safe enablement is the central question. Consumer chatbots normalized point-to-point connections into personal inboxes, but enterprise agents are reaching into crown-jewel systems where blanket access is not an option. Cequence Security has spent years protecting applications and APIs for telcos, financial institutions, and retailers, and that history shapes how the team is approaching the agentic shift: how do you let the right work get done without handing over the keys to the building?

    Identity alone is not the answer. Agents can hallucinate, can be prompt-injected, and will go to great lengths to complete a task. Cequence Security addresses this with what Shreyans Mehta calls an agent persona, a dynamic, job-description-driven scope that limits an agent to exactly what its role requires. An email assistant gets read access and a calendar check, not the ability to send or delete. The job defines the permissions, and the permissions follow the agent through the Cequence AI Gateway platform.

  • Cruise To Mars | Three Ducks On A Journey | Written By Lucia & Marco Ciappelli (English Version) | Stories Sotto Le Stelle Podcast | Short Stories For Children And Dreamers Of All Ages

    Cruise To Mars | Three Ducks On A Journey | Written By Lucia & Marco Ciappelli (English Version) | Stories Sotto Le Stelle Podcast | Short Stories For Children And Dreamers Of All Ages
    2026/04/29
    CRUISE TO MARS | THREE DUCKS ON A JOURNEY Mama duck had two daughters, and she loved taking them on trips to faraway places. The two ducklings had few friends, but they often went out and about. They played in the farmyard pretending to be a group, and even on their birthday, they ate the big cake all by themselves. As a gift, Mama decided to take them on a cruise to Mars. She organized the trip on a spaceship for tourists, got tickets for an intergalactic Martian party, and departure as soon as possible — before you could say "quack quack." While all three of them were in the yard ready for the trip, they saw a strange object flying low over the farm. Landing on the ground, a small square figure appeared at a hatch and said: "Excuse me, are you the ones with three tickets to Mars and three for the intergalactic party?" The ducklings looked at each other in amazement. They had never seen a square creature before — square head, square eyes, even the smile seemed square. "Yes, that's us!" replied Mama duck. "Quack! Quack! Quack!" chimed the ducklings in chorus, hopping with excitement. "Please, come aboard," said the Martian with a little squared bow. "The journey to Mars is about to begin." And in one leap they boarded the spaceship, so curious and excited for this new adventure. The strange vehicle took off as fast as a gust of wind. In space, it was rush hour. The spaceship found itself in a queue, and the Martian pilot honked the horn: "Bleep, bleep!" He leaned out the window and grumbled: "It's getting harder and harder to travel! Look at that, there's even a playful little planet spinning around on itself like it's a carousel! Oh, what fun — move over, let me pass, and keep on playing!" Due to the cosmic traffic jam, the spaceship landed on Mars slightly behind schedule. "How wonderful!" exclaimed the ducklings when they saw a ship made entirely of glass, ready for the cruise, where they were invited to come aboard. There was a great bustle of small square Martians. "Good morning, Mrs. Duck, please make yourself comfortable!" they said with a bow, while the ducklings — quack, quack, quack — chattered and hopped about happily. In the background, square guitars played Interplanetary Rock. The three travelers, with their little faces pressed against the windows, gazed in wonder at the red color of the planet. The ship set off slowly across the sand, but suddenly the engines began to roar and up, toward the top of a mountain, then down over the red rocks — it felt like being on a roller coaster, up and down, up and down. Then it would settle again and slowly cross immense valleys. "What a strange sight! What a strange vehicle that travels over rocks and sand!" the tourists commented. The hours passed amid wonders and discoveries. Time flew by. Evening came. On the Martian ship, Mama duck and the ducklings showed up all dressed up, with bows and ribbons, for the intergalactic birthday party. The waiters danced, offered their arms to the tourists, and served to the sound of Rock music. Small Martians approached the ducklings and, showering them with compliments, hopping and dancing, played with them. The party had begun. "Everything here is square — the glasses, the bottles!" the ducks whispered to each other. The sweet treats were salty, the salty ones were sweet, the cake was... well, well, what kind of world is this! The balloons with "Happy Birthday" written on them were — guess what — square. The evening was coming to an end and fireworks lit up the sky to celebrate the tourists... and they were square too. "How kind and lovely these Martians are!" said Mama duck, and continued: "We made it to Mars, we've seen what there was to see, we've had our fun. Now let's think about going back to Earth." Suddenly, the ship commander's voice announced the imminent arrival of a spaceship for the return trip. The three ducks couldn't wait. They said their goodbyes and, crossing a connecting bridge, stepped directly into the spaceship. And down, toward their planet.
