Forecast: Visibility is low with a 43% chance of extended response times. Heavy downpours of healthcare vulnerabilities dominate, with brief breaks of exploit intelligence.
In this week's episode of GreyNoise Storm⚡️Watch, we kick things off with our regular roundtable introductions before diving into some intriguing poll results about cybersecurity metrics. The community weighed in heavily on what drives action in their organizations, with Mean Time to Respond leading the pack at 43% of votes, followed by Mean Time to Detect at 28%. Notably, system patching status came in third at 26%, while the tongue-in-cheek option about whiskey levels in the team liquor cabinet garnered a surprising 13% of responses.
The crew then gathers round the Festivus pole to channel their inner George Costanza's as they each air their grievances — cyber and possibly otherwise — from the past year. So many things were busted in 2024 that we're shocked we kept the episode under four hours.
The episode features a crucial discussion on practical OPSEC fundamentals, particularly focusing on executive protection challenges. We explore how predictable movement patterns and excessive public information exposure can create security vulnerabilities. The conversation covers everything from website vulnerabilities to social media risks, emphasizing the importance of consistent security protocols and information control strategies.
Healthcare cybersecurity takes center stage as we discuss recent research presented at the Health-ISAC Fall Americas Summit, courtesy of our friends at Censys. We also dig into VulnCheck's comprehensive analysis of Known Exploited Vulnerabilities for 2024, along with essential insights on exploit intelligence and vulnerability prioritization.
The show wraps up with a look at the results of platform improvements since GreyNoise's "Greyt Migreytion".
