What are the most important metrics to measure when building out your security program? One thing we learned on this episode is those metrics change, as your security program matures.
 
This episode of Defense in Depth is co-hosted by me, David Spark (@dspark), the creator of CISO Series and Allan Alford (@AllanAlfordinTX), CISO at Mitel. Our guest is my co-host of the other show, Mike Johnson, CISO of Lyft.
 

 Fluency's correlation and risk scoring technology combined with their approach of using pseudonyms in place of certain PII data greatly facilitates your organization's path towards compliance. Over time, machine learning and artificial intelligence algorithms detect anomalies at an impressive level of scalability. Run Fluency as a standalone or integrate it into your existing SIEM. Learn more by visiting us at booth #4529 at the RSA® Conference 2019. On this episode of Defense in Depth, you'll learn: • There is no golden set of security metrics.
 • Metrics you use to measure your security program this year won't necessarily be the same ones you use next year.
 • Use the NIST model to determine your security program maturity.
 • Unlike B2C, B2B companies can use metrics to build a closer tie between security and the business.
 • Regulations and certifications is one easy way to align security with the business.

Security Metrics

Will the privacy outcry and new regulations limit companies’ abilities to do business, or will it span a whole new industry? We discuss building a business in the new age of privacy regulations on this week’s Defense in Depth.

On this episode of Defense in Depth, you’ll learn: • While new privacy regulations may hamper a company’s ability to collect and sell any data they want, they don’t necessarily stifle the economy. For example, the introduction of HIPAA regulations spawned a growing industry.
 • DuckDuckGo is a search engine that doesn’t collect your browsing history to determine your search results.
 • Even if you are very protective of your data, the people around you probably aren’t. Through relationships and triangulation a profile of you, sans your personal data, can still be created.
 • Because of this ability to triangulate data, your employees’ personal data, outside of work can become a risk to your company.

Learn more by visiting us at booth #4529 at the RSA® Conference 2019. On this episode of Defense in Depth, you’ll learn: • A good starting point for building an information security council is to develop a business continuity and disaster recovery plan with all departments and stakeholders.
 • Understand the risk tolerance of each division.
 • A well-informed information security council can often benefit from less security training.
 • The number one battle to develop an InfoSec council is never technical. It is always cultural.
 • Need to create a culture of not shaming people for making mistakes that compromise security. You want employees to feel free to speak up if they do make a mistake.

 On this episode of Defense in Depth, you’ll learn: • Nearly 1 in 5 people would sell their health record for $500. (

 • Insider threat mistakes can take many forms. It could be someone carelessly leaving a USB key somewhere or it could be a developer simply not securing their code.
 • Security people make mistakes just like non-security people. Difference is when a security person makes a mistake, chances are the gravity of the damage will be much higher.
 • A breach doesn’t necessarily have to damage the company. A breach simply means data left your protected area of the business. And that is still bad even if there was no actual damage.

Is the "free to use" Secure Controls Framework the one meta-framework to rule them all?

On this episode of Defense in Depth, you’ll learn:
 
 • Purpose of the Secure Controls Framework is to have a single framework to address multiple requirements. It's a meta framework that takes into consideration the controls of all other frameworks.
 • You only need to use the security controls that are important and relevant to you. For that reason, don't be daunted by the number of controls on SCF (currently 750).
 • You can have security without privacy, but you can't have privacy without security. Integrating privacy and security is critical to SCF.

Secure Controls Framework

Do companies who deliver "threat intelligence" deliver on that promise, or is there more the customer needs to bring to the table to be able to take action?

 On this episode of Defense in Depth, you’ll learn: • Threat intelligence is about telling a story. And that story is broken up into three parts: strategic, operational, and tactical intelligence. Threat intelligence today really isn’t about creating that story. Most of the cases are about correlating data points.
 • Threat intelligence becomes stale when you are reactionary vs. being proactive.
 • Threat intelligence fails when you don’t mix multiple intelligence points to form a more complete full story of your adversaries.
 • Feeds are not valuable by themselves. When you combine it with your internal data, that’s when you could actually come up with something actionable.
 • If you’re not ingesting and onboarding your data appropriately into your internal threat intelligence team, why do you even have it?

Threat Intelligence

If a company's brand and value is built on trust, then your security department is critical to building the value of the company.

 On this episode of Defense in Depth, you’ll learn: 
 
 
 • When a business becomes an idea, the only thing that matters is the perceived value by the owners.
 • If you deem security 
is • the business, then it no longer can take a consultative role. It must take the role of brand and value building.
 • Explicit value is generating or saving money. Implicit value is what drives those two opposite ends of the spectrum.
 • A security department shouldn't be focused on trying to get more budget for themselves. They should see where they are in the value chain and at any given point in time they must fully understand the business and see which department could generate the most business value.
 • If you only lobby for the security department in terms of its importance for getting budget, and not lobby for the overall business then you will lose credibility with your partners within the business.

Security IS the Business

Is the RSA Conference a must attend for security professionals? Or is it enough to "just be in San Francisco that week"?

On this episode of Defense in Depth, you'll learn:
 

 
 
 
 • Is RSAC for education or connecting? Does the value happen in the conference center or outside? This was the initial part of our debate and one argument is you need to graduate from RSAC to make it more of a "connecting outside of the event" type of event.
 • The show floor is overwhelming. As David Gorton of OverwatchID noted, "The circus hides the serious of what we're trying to do."
 • There were a lot of comments about people not having fear of missing out (FOMO), but you can't argue that RSAC has a gravitational force that brings tons of security-minded people to San Francisco for one week every year. There is enormous value in that.
 • The marketing model for vendors during and after the show is starting to grate on practitioners. They're not enjoying the endless cold calls the following week.
 • The expo hall is focused on leads and given that so many of these products are high ticket items, if just a few sales comes through, then the event pays for itself.
 • It's impossible for small booths to compete for visibility with huge booths at the conference.
