7MS #536: Interview with Amanda Berlin of Blumira

Today we're so excited to welcome Amanda Berlin, Lead Incident Detection Engineer at Blumira, back to the show (did you miss Amanda's first appearance on the show? Check it out here)! You might already be familiar with Amanda's awesome Defensive Security Handbook or her work with the Mental Health Hackers organization. Today we virtually sat down to tackle a variety of topics and questions, including:

  • What if HAFNIUM2 comes out today and only affects 2 specific versions of Exchange? Does Blumira buy every software/hardware thingy out there and have an evil scientist lab where they test out all these different exploits, and then create detections for them?
  • Can an old, out-of-touch security guy like me still find a place at the Vegas hacker conferences (even though I hate lines, heat, crowds and partying)? Spoiler alert: yes.
  • Are security vendors more likely to share their software/hardware security services with a defensive security group like Blumira, rather than pentesters like 7MinSec?
  • Does Amanda think there's a gender bias in the security industry?
  • Besides being aware of it happening, what can we do to cut down the bullying/secure-splaining/d-baggery/etc. in the industry?

I found a great bit of reading that walks you through the “plays” of hacking – enumeration, exploitation, post-exploitation, etc. It’s a great (and affordable) book called The Hacker Playbook. Cheggitowt! Download: 7MS #34: The Hacker Playbook (audio)

Been a while since I shared an update on OSCP progress. It’s going good but…slow. However, I do have one (maybe obvious) tip to share that I hope will save you a ton of time. Download: 7MS #32: OSCP – part 3 (audio)

7MS #31: Network Detective (audio)

Network Detective is a tool we’ve been using as kind of an addendum to our full security assessment. It gives some nice, plain-English Excel spreadsheets and Word docs that report on AD health and structure, PC inventory and open ports, AV clients that aren’t working right, and a whole lot more.

7MS #30: Managing Privileged Accounts (audio)

Most organizations I talk to have no idea where their privileged accounts are used across the network. I recently saw a demo of a solution called CyberArk, which seems to address that problem. Download: 7MS #30: Managing Privileged Accounts (audio)

7MS #28: Infosec for Kids? (audio)

This is more of a random, wondering aloud type of episode as I think about raising my kids with infosec in mind. Specifically, what’s life going to be like for them growing up in an Internet-soaked world where there are constantly text/video/photos of them going online – to stay forever?
