CISO Corner is Dark Reading’s weekly digest for security leaders. This issue covers topics like Cloud Security truths, MITRE ATT&CK’s breach, OWASP’s LLM Top 10, SBOMs’ vulnerability census, cybersecurity pros’ licensure laws, J&J spin-off CISO’s security program, and suggestions for post-SolarWinds SEC disclosures. The articles provide insight and advice for security operations readers and leaders.
Based on the meeting notes, the key takeaways are:
1. Cloud Security: Organizations need to recognize that the cloud is not inherently more secure than on-premises environments and that proper security practices are crucial, as almost half of breaches originate in the cloud.
2. MITRE ATT&CKED: It’s crucial to address vulnerabilities proactively, as even trusted organizations like MITRE have fallen victim to cyberattacks due to exploited bugs.
3. OWASP’s LLM Top 10: Organizations need to focus on authenticating inputs and models in large language model applications to prevent identity compromise and other attack methods.
4. SBOMs: The use of software bills of material (SBOMs) for supply-chain risk management is gaining traction, but it’s important to be aware of the potential for attackers to exploit SBOM information.
5. Licensing & Licensure Laws: Some nations are mandating certification and licensure of cybersecurity professionals, which could impact businesses and services in those regions.
6. CISO Strategies: CISOs need to establish clear roles, embed machine learning and AI, and modernize security strategies for efficient and effective cybersecurity.
7. Cyber Disclosures: There is a proposal for a remediation safe harbor that would allow companies time to evaluate and respond to incidents before proper disclosure, potentially reducing impact on public stock.
