Black Hat 2024 preview

It's been a while huh? Apologies for our absence, but the team are back with a run through of everything we've got going on at Black Hat - from our 10 year birthday celebrations, the interesting lightning talks in our booth, and Joe Marshall's "Backdoors and Breaches" game. Come and visit us at Cisco Booth 1732 and Splunk Booth 1940.

Before that, Matt encourages Mitch and Lurene to join him in the joy of Tekkno Train by Electric Callboy (Choo Choo!) and Mitch explains why his son has developed a huge potty mouth, with no sense of irony. Lurene also reveals insights into creating a university curriculum for cyber weapons development.

Stick around for an illumunating discussion on how AI could affect a Furby. Just don't google "Long Furbie". You just googled it didn't you? Ah man, we warned you...

It's Taplunk! Talos and Splunk threat researchers meet to put the security world to rights

What happens when two sets of threat researchers from Talos and Splunk's SURGe team meet? Aside from some highly controversial opinions and omissions about the best horror movie, the team discuss what security trends are FUD, and what's actually fearful/ most challenging at the moment. Also, what is the security industry not aware of enough, and also too aware of? Plus some thoughts on cybersecurity awareness training and how we can do better.

This is a great conversation facilitated by SURGe's Mick Baccio, with Joe Marshall and Nick Biasini from Talos, and Tamara Chacon and Audra Streetman from SURGe.
