Silo Busting 6: Cybersecurity During the Pandemic with Sam Rehman and Jitin Agarwal

We’re not talking about your grandfather’s cybersecurity. In our remote present, cybercriminals have many—too many—new opportunities to inflict damage on our vast out-of-the-office workforce. To obtain some much-needed perspective on security during our inherently sinecure era, we brought in our Sam Rehman, Chief Information Security Officer and SVP, and Jit Agarwal, VP of Enterprise Products, to answer some questions from producer Ken Gordon. Their informed, pointed, and occasionally scary answers—on topics such as cybersecurity training and eduction, automation, and trust—have arrived just in time. As Rehman says: “The attack surface is just expanding.” With criminals phishing and impersonating their way into our digital lives, infecting our computers with malware and ransomware, we’ll need to rethink cybersecurity. Seriously. Trust us. Better yet, trust but verify. Host: Alison Kotin Editor: Kyp Pilalas Producer: Ken Gordon
