Today on Cyber Work, our deep-dive into manufacturing and operational technology (OT) cybersecurity brings us to the problem of endpoint security. Tom Molden, CIO of Global Executive Engagement at Tanium, has been grappling with these problems for a while. We talk about his early, formative tech experiences (pre-Windows operation system!), his transformational position moving from fiscal strategy and implementation into his first time as chief information officer and talk through the interlocking problems that come from connected manufacturing devices and the specific benefits and challenges to be found in strategizing around the endpoints. All of the endpoints.

AT&T Cybersecurity’s head of evangelism, Theresa Lanowitz, is today's guest. Lanowitz has amazing and wide-ranging career achievements, from her time with analyst firms Gartner and Voke, work on Java’s JBuilder environment and strategic marketing for the Jini Project, which was proto-IoT going back to the late ‘90s! With all of these incredible stories, we talked far and wide about manufacturing security concerns, she breaks down the key pain points around edge computing and talks extensively about her love of both the English language and programming languages of all sorts. They all have grammar, they all have style, and if you’re a linguist or a lover of learning new languages, perhaps computer languages are an opportunity you hadn’t pursued? All that and a ton more – seriously, I could have talked to Lanowitz for hours – on today’s episode of Cyber Work.

Tom Terronez joins Cyber Work to discuss security in an industry that doesn’t always make the headlines for security news: dentistry. Terronez co-founded Medix Dental, an IT and security provider for the dental industry, 20 years ago, and has the lowdown on some of the specific security issues dentist offices and networks face. It is an uphill battle to get the industry to acknowledge its extreme insecurity, and I find out how a shared love of Hall & Oates got Terronez into this very specific area of the security sphere. And I promise that I tried to avoid overusing the phrase “drill down on this point.” Spoiler: I failed.

Miami University's (in Oxford, Ohio) Farmer School of Business Information Systems and Security researcher Joseph Nwankpa joins Cyber Work today.

Nwankpa discusses The Peltzman Effect, the persistent struggles to create security awareness that lasts past the initial training sessions and talks about some surprising reasons that the higher education sector has been shown to be less sophisticated in their security awareness than many other industries.
