Censys’ Silas Cutler on how adversaries chain vulns together for big attacks

In this episode of Safe Mode, Greg talks with Silas Cutler, principal security researcher at Census, how ransomware attackers chain together overlooked vulnerabilities, especially in platforms like SharePoint, and why patch fatigue leaves defenders at risk. Silas breaks down advanced ways criminals maintain access even after patches, and explains what makes government and critical sectors prime targets. We discuss the real challenges of incident response, threat intelligence, and preventing long-term damage—especially in complex cloud and hybrid environments. In our reporter chat, Greg talks with Tim Starks about two marquee stories this week: a look at how the government information sharing law renewal has sputtered, and a new China-linked espionage campaign has researchers sounding the alarms. https://cyberscoop.com/cyber-threat-information-law-hurtles-toward-expiration-with-poor-prospects-for-renewal/
