The FBI sees every breach. You see yours.
Adam Maddock, Section Chief of the FBI's Cyber Technical Analytics and Operations Section, and Jarrod Schlenker, Assistant Section Chief leading the FBI Cyber Division's private-sector engagement, join David Moulton to walk through Operation Winter SHIELD, the FBI's public campaign built on what investigators see repeated across hundreds and thousands of cases. Ten defenses. All of them rooted in real intrusions. Most of them still missing from too many organizations.
You'll learn:
- Why SMS-based MFA is no longer enough, and what phishing-resistant authentication actually looks like in practice
- How end-of-life SOHO routers and IoT devices become obfuscation infrastructure for attacks against targets that never knew they were involved
- Why calling the FBI early in an incident changes what's possible, and what you lose if you wait
- What the FBI means when it says industry is a "critical ally," not a passive recipient of intelligence
- Why you don't need to have your act together before you call your local FBI field office, and why trying to might actually hurt the investigation
This episode is essential listening if you're: a CISO or security leader wondering what law enforcement actually needs from you, an executive who doesn't yet have a relationship with your local FBI field office, or a practitioner trying to understand which defensive investments move the needle most.
