Richard Stiennon, Chief Research Analyst with IT-Harvest and industry executive, joins the podcast.

Richard gives insight on some of the bigger and most known data attacks in reference to what we are learning for future avoidance.

What are some of the security lessons that we’ve learned from these attacks? On both the supplier side as well as the consumer side.

Are current verification methods sufficient to assure security from attacks?

Scott dives into Richard’s recent publishings including the Forbes article “There is No Cloud Security Segment” and his book the Security Yearbook 2020

John asks Richard about automating security in the Cloud. What if there was a completely engineered security environment that handled security in an automated way?

We discuss “What is true cloud security” and how can companies move this security to the cloud.

Richard gives insight into what needs to happen next to see larger security models fully deployed in the cloud.

Richard shares thoughts on the overlap of so many security vendors. Are they doing the same thing or is there something different?
