CISO IT – Great Security Begins with Great IT, E11

In this episode, Jason Kikta discusses the critical relationship between IT and security, emphasizing that great security begins with a solid IT foundation. He explores the importance of establishing a baseline for normalcy, the role of user safety in preventing security breaches, and the need to understand insider threats. Jason concludes with discussing the 'big three' of cybersecurity, which are:

  1. Network Inventory: Knowing what's on your network is crucial. This involves having a comprehensive inventory of all devices and systems connected to the network.
  2. Configuration and Patching: Keeping systems configured correctly and up-to-date with patches is essential to prevent vulnerabilities that could be exploited by malicious actors.
  3. Identity and Authentication Protection: Ensuring robust identity and authentication measures are in place to protect against unauthorized access and maintain the integrity of user accounts.
