#cybersidechats — Public Fediverse posts

Fake employees and compromised contractors are forcing organizations to rethink vendor vetting, hiring security, and identity controls.

Our team is seeing more incidents where attackers don’t exploit vulnerabilities—they exploit trust. In the latest Cyberside Chats episode, @sherridavidoff and @MDurrin unpack Amazon’s recent incident in which a North Korean IT worker was detected through behavioral anomalies and a Russian state-sponsored campaign abusing trusted infrastructure and edge devices.

Watch or listen to hear why hiring workflows, contractors, credentials, and edge devices are now part of your attack surface and what to do about it.

Many organizations still treat identity as something you check once at login. On this week’s Cyberside Chats, Sherri Davidoff and Matt Durrin break down how AI-driven impersonation has made that model unsafe, and why authentication has to extend into calls, chats, approvals, and support workflows in 2026.

They also cover practical ways to add verification where mistakes are costly and how to retrain employees when visual and verbal cues can’t be trusted. If identity is on your 2026 roadmap, this conversation helps clarify what needs to change.

Collaboration tools like Teams, Slack, and Zoom have become prime targets for attackers—and Microsoft’s latest roadmap updates reflect that shift.

These new security features tell us a lot about the evolving threat landscape and where organizations still need to pay attention. If your security strategy hasn’t caught up with how people actually communicate, this Cyberside Chats episode is worth a listen: https://www.chatcyberside.com/e/collaboration-under-siege-microsoft-s-teams-security-overhaul/

A single “smart” device with undocumented connectivity can quietly tunnel out of your network—and most organizations don’t discover it until something goes wrong.

On the latest Cyberside Chats episode, Sherri Davidoff and Matt Durrin walk through real-world scenarios where hidden radios, cloud paths, and offshore update servers slipped in through routine hardware purchases. They explain how simple policies, ABOM requirements, and smart segmentation can stop these surprises before they become security incidents.
