This episode of the ADCG Privacy and Cybersecurity Podcast features Ken Westin, Field CISO for Panther Labs. Ken has been in the cybersecurity field for over 15 years, working with companies to improve their security posture through threat hunting, insider threat programs, and vulnerability research. We discuss how the lack of good application and data inventories impact incident response. When data is spread across data centers, clouds, and SaaS providers, it becomes difficult to track and trace an incident and understand its impact, but it becomes especially hard if the data involves confidential or proprietary business data that is not tracked by privacy officers or if it includes sensitive data that may involve regulators. The recent MOVEit breach, which involved software used to transfer sensitive data between servers, systems, and applications, provided rich lessons in the need for data asset inventories and SIEMs that can correlate data across providers and platforms.

This podcast episode features Mark Rasch, a renowned privacy and cybersecurity attorney, to discuss the SEC’s investigation into the SolarWinds incident and the “Wells notices” it sent to the company’s CISO and CFO. The Wells notices indicate the SEC is conducting a civil investigation of those individuals and they may be facing enforcement actions. The news sent tremors through the CISO community and brought back thoughts of Joe Sullivan’s criminal prosecution — and conviction — for the way he handled a breach while CISO at Uber. The SEC’s action is civil, but it targets certain individuals. We discuss what this means for CISOs, what they can do to protect themselves, and generally how the implementation of cyber governance programs can help protect CISOs by making cyber risk management a responsibility of all officers and directors.
