The Often-Overlooked Truth in #Cybersecurity: Seeing the Unseen in Vulnerability Management
Most successful breaches don't happen because defenders ignored known vulnerabilities. They happen because attackers exploited assets that organizations never knew existed.
HD Moore, founder and CEO of runZero and creator of #Metasploit, reveals the uncomfortable truth: organizations routinely miss half their actual attack surface. Through decades of penetration testing high-security environments, Moore discovered that traditional discovery methods only find properly managed systems while #shadowIT, legacy hardware, and misconfigured devices remain invisible.
Key insights from our conversation:
• When using attacker-grade discovery techniques, asset counts typically DOUBLE what organizations thought they had
• The industry's CVE obsession creates false security while real attacks exploit misconfigurations and zero-days
• Unknown assets—from IoT devices to forgotten servers—bypass even sophisticated security controls
• Traditional agent-based tools can't see what attackers see
#RunZero inverts the traditional model by starting with unauthenticated discovery that mirrors how attackers actually probe networks. This reveals the true attack surface and transforms vulnerability management from reactive patching to strategic risk reduction.

🎙️✨ Why #Community Could Be the Strongest Defense in #Cybersecurity
An ITSPmagazine Brand Story with Rob Clyde from ISACA | #RSAC2025In the rush to cover #AI, #cryptography, and quantum threats, it’s easy to forget that the cybersecurity profession is—above all else—human. That’s exactly why this conversation with Rob Clyde, Board Director at ISACA, stood out during Sean Martin, CISSP and Marco Ciappelli's post-event reflections from #RSAC Conference 2025.
This Brand Story goes beyond the headlines, diving into the real issues affecting our industry: burnout, mental health, the shrinking sense of community, and the looming threat of quantum risk. Rob shares why ISACA continues to prioritize connection, education, and support at every stage of a professional’s journey.
🙌 A big thank you to ISACA for sponsoring our RSAC 2025 coverage. Your support helped make conversations like this possible.

Guess what!
🎙️✨ AUDIO SIGNALS IS BACK ✨🎙️
After a few months of hiatus, I couldn't stay away.
My passion for storytellers and storytelling cannot be tamed—and I'm thrilled to return with a conversation that reminds me why this podcast matters.
Meet Bradley W. Buchanan —retired English professor, two-time blood cancer survivor, and debut novelist who just released Spy's Mate, a gripping chess thriller set in Cold War Soviet Union.Why This Episode Matters:
Brad is what's medically called a "chimera"—his DNA was literally altered by a stem cell transplant. He was blind for a year and a half. He nearly died multiple times. Through it all, he had chess dreams where the pieces hunted him across the board.His novel isn't just a spy thriller. It's a deeply personal story about Yasha, an Armenian chess prodigy who promises his dying mother he'll become world chess champion—a promise that drives him through a world where the KGB manipulates tournaments and chess prowess equals communist superiority.
Brad wrote this after his own mother died. He cried writing the final pages, giving his protagonist the closure he couldn't have in real life.
What We Explored: ♟️ How the KGB used psychological warfare in chess tournaments ♟️ Writing a novel that works as both myth and historical thriller ♟️ The personal cost of storytelling and processing grief through fiction ♟️ Why he wrote this like a screenplay (calling Netflix!) ♟️ Surviving cancer and finding new purpose as a full-time writer ♟️ The hero's journey through 64 squares
This is storytelling at its most human—where personal trauma transforms into universal narrative, where a game becomes life and death, where a son's promise to his mother echoes through pages of Cold War intrigue.

Hard to believe, but apparently some good stories can be told even without me. I guess I'm not the conditio sine qua nonfor a great conversation... a good guest is, and Sean Martin, CISSP can certainly hold the wheel.
I wasn't available, and I missed this one but I'm more than happy to help spread the word about yet another fantastic Brand Story told via Studio C60 / ITSPmagazine. This one's worth your attention.
Julian Hamood from TrustedTech joins Sean to talk about something most organizations are getting dangerously wrong: #AI readiness.
Here's the uncomfortable truth—AI doesn't clean up your mess. It makes it louder. Faster. More confident-sounding. And potentially more damaging.
Data scattered across personal drives, legacy servers, and random SharePoint sites? AI will find it.
Inconsistent permissions nobody remembers setting up? AI will exploit them. Architectural spaghetti connecting clouds, on-prem systems, and #SaaS platforms that were never meant to talk to each other? AI will inherit every flaw and present the results with the certainty of an oracle.
This conversation digs into what real readiness looks like—data classification, access controls, architectural clarity, and governance that doesn't get bypassed because someone in sales wanted a shiny new copilot.
Watch. Listen. Think before you deploy.

We❤️ Bob!
You know Bob—stuck in the #SOC, drowning in data he can't actually use, trying to do his job with tools that seem designed to slow him down rather than help him solve problems.
I've always felt for Bob.
His passion is real, but the system?
Not so much.Now I have hope for Bob, thanks to Crogl, Inc.
monzy merza, CEO at Crogl, Inc., joins Sean Martin, CISSP and me for a conversation that's part philosophy, part rebellion, and part actual product demo—showing how a SOC can work when data never has to move and analysts finally get their time back.
We dig into what happens when you stop forcing everything into the same shape and start letting analysts actually investigate.
AI's role in collaboration. Building trust across the SOC. And Monzy drops this gem: "You don't eat food from a chef who's never eaten food. Why build a company without truly understanding the problem?" 🍳 👨🍳 🔪
This is exactly why Studio C60 / ITSPmagazine exists—to tell stories that matter, challenge assumptions, and maybe give Bob a fighting chance.
Here's to many more conversations like this one with Crogl, Inc.'s Team!
Stop normalizing everything. Start solving something.

New Brand Story On ITSPmagazine!
Security that doesn’t start with the business is security that won’t scale.Legal, #cyber, and operations used to work in silos—now they need to sit at the same table.
Bryan Marlatt from CyXcel joins Sean Martin, CISSP and Marco Ciappelli to share how their consulting model supports clients before, during, and after incidents by aligning legal strategy, cybersecurity readiness, and business goals. Whether advising hospitals, manufacturers, or multinational firms, their approach starts with people, not tools. Listen in to hear how they make security work for the business.

Always a pleasure spending time with Rob Allen and the whole ThreatLocker team - virtually or in person (better!!!) 😬
🎙️✨ Why Simplicity Might Be the Missing Ingredient in Your #ZeroTrust Strategy | An ITSPmagazine Brand Story with Rob Allen from ThreatLocker | #RSAC2025
At #RSAC Conference 2025, the ThreatLocker booth didn’t need flashing lights or gimmicks. Just a live PowerShell attack, a rubber ducky, and a crowd watching real protection in action. That’s how you cut through the noise.
In this Brand Story episode, Sean Martin, CISSP and Marco Ciappelli talk with Rob Allen, Chief Product Officer at ThreatLocker, about why Zero Trust doesn’t need to be complicated to be effective.

🎙️✨ New Episode!
A Brand Story from the Road to #RSAC 2025 — Featuring Akamai TechnologiesEvery year, as we get ready for RSA Conference, we fire up the engine and the mics—not just to cover the #tech, but to capture the #business, the strategy, and most importantly, the human side of #cybersecurity.
Our latest Brand Story does just that.
In this pre-conference conversation, we sit down with Rupesh Chokshi, SVP & GM of Application Security at #Akamai, to talk about the shifting cybersecurity landscape as we move deeper into the #AI era. From #APIattacks and #LLM scraping to hybrid infrastructures and #zerotrust environments, it’s clear that security is no longer just a barrier—it’s a business enabler.
And Akamai is right at the center of that transformation.
We explore what it means to build real #cyberresilience, how organizations can rethink their security strategy in an AI-driven world, and why this year’s #RSAC2025 Conference is set to be a defining moment for both innovation and trust.
🫶 A special thank you to Akamai for sponsoring our RSAC 2025 coverage and continuing to support conversations that matter.

As you probably know by now, Sean Martin, CISSP and I are not going to be in Melbourne for #CyberCon with the Australian Information Security Association (AISA) this year... which really sucks as we had a great time there in 2024 - We met amazing people, created great content, and truly miss sharing quality time with the #cybersecurity community Down Under!
But this isn't stopping us from being virtually there by reconnecting with friends and meeting new ones while covering the event remotely.
So here's my conversation with the one and only Jacqueline Jayne (JJ) talking about her upcoming session: "Beyond Blame: Keeping Our Kids Safe Online" at CyberCon Melbourne (October 15-17, 2025).
There's something fundamentally broken in how we approach online safety for young people. We're quick to point fingers—at tech companies, at schools, at kids themselves—but JJ wants to change that conversation entirely.

New Episode 🥳
BlackHat Europe 2025: New President Suzy Pallett on Community, Collaboration, and What Comes Next
I had the chance to speak with Suzy Pallett as she wrapped up her first #BlackHatEurope as the brand's new President. The event saw attendance grow more than 25 percent over last year.
Her perspective on #cybersecurity stands out. She called it "collaboration unlike any other industry I've ever been close to." In a world where knowledge is usually guarded, here it gets shared freely. Because the threats affect everyone, and defending together just makes sense.
The keynotes this year pushed some uncomfortable questions. Is ransomware actually stoppable? Are our compliance checklists creating vulnerabilities instead of preventing them? These are the conversations that matter—not just what tool to buy, but how we think about the problems in the first place.
And when I asked about her priorities for the year ahead, she kept coming back to the same word: community. Listening. Building a platform that belongs to the people who use it.
Events like this remind us why this industry, for all its stress and complexity, still feels different.
The cat-and-mouse game continues, but at least we're running together.
