We are back with our second episode exploring how NuHarbor Security began and what sets us apart from our peers. This week we’re joined by Scott, NuHarbor’s VP and guru of marketing and sales. Scott is another one of the OG crowd and has been with NuHarbor since the very early days. We’ll talk to Scott about how he has embraced content creation, like this podcast, over using traditional methods of marketing and why he and Justin are willing to give away things that other companies may feel peopl...

We are just a couple of months away from the 2020 election and like many voters, we are discussing election security. This week we are joined again by Davis and we're talking about the threats to our election and how most people focus on the wrong thing when it comes to securing elections. From voting machines to hanging chads to social engineering, how much of a threat do we face and what can we do about it? This was a big episode, so big we actually split it into two, so this week we talk abou...

The original group, or OG's as they're referred to around the office, have seen NuHarbor grow from a scrappy little company trying to break the mold to a quickly expanding cybersecurity firm punching above their numbers. What is it that motivated the original members to take the leap and join Justin in his pursuit of building an infosec company in his own image? What is it that is driving the company growth despite the challenging economy? We're starting this discussion with Kyle, the company Sw...

This week Zack is solo and is discussing a new report out from IBM Security on the costs of data breaches. To put it bluntly, it's not cheap. However, the report shows that all is not lost and that organizations that have strong cybersecurity plans, software, and personnel, will save millions of dollars post-breach compared to those who have nothing. The lesson here is to hire us because every dollar you spend before an incident will return a lot more should something occur. We highly recommend ...

On this week's breach, we're talking about a breach that took years to come to fruition. How many of us have sold, recycled, or tossed a used computer with the hard drive still in it? It happens countless times a day and we likely don't even think about the amount of data that remains, even after you "wipe" it. That's right, your secret list of coworkers with the worst taste in music could be out in the wild as we speak! Listen in to learn what you should do to secure these old drives as well as...

We're talking team care this week with Zack and Justin. They'll cover the challenges of leading a team in crisis (like a pandemic), how to keep up enough on the lives of your team members without being creepy, and why leaders fail to lead.

Justin is back on the podcast and for this week's breach, we're talking about the big Twitter breach that opened up some of the biggest users on the system to a bitcoin scam. We were shocked at how incredibly easy it was to get into the system, access important accounts, and then waste the opportunity for a second rate bitcoin scam. We'll talk about how this type of vulnerability is far more common than you think and why businesses continue to fail at the most basic security practices. To learn ...

We're joined by Kristof to dig into another compliance frontier, the Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC). Kristof will give us a primer on who CMMC affects, what they need to do get compliant, how you get certified, and when this certification goes live. If you fall into the Defense Industrial Base (DIB) or work with the Dept of Defense or contractors who are connected to the DoD, you better ready for CMMC. Kristof also discusses how this will replace NIST with the DoD and the pote...

We are back with another throwback episode, this time on Application Security Authentication Requirements. You probably would not be surprised to realize that there are still organizations out there that are not using best practices when it comes to authentication requirements and their lack of understanding often results in security headaches for their organization and potential data leaks for users. Justin shares 10 requirements from OWASP and how they can help you in your quest for compliance...

Today we're talking Blue Leaks, the massive data leak impacting law enforcement agencies at all levels, not to be confused with the classic Martin Lawrence movie Blue Streak, a comedy from 1999. We talk about the impacts of the breach, how and why it happened, and the continued risk to government agencies as they expand their online presence. More info on the breach from Wired: https://www.wired.com/story/blueleaks-anonymous-law-enforcement-hack/ Check out NuHarbor Security for complete cyber se...
