A chronicle and a podcast from Sean Martin for 'At The Edge' Column

By Sean Martin
Guests: Emily Miller | Ted Harrington | Dean Weber
Host: Sean Martin
In today's episode, I connect with Emily, Dean, and Ted, we look at the current state of security in IT, OT, IoT, and ICS — and the connections between these different environments.
Together, we explore how identity plays a critical role in ensuring a safe environment that can be traced to specific sensors, devices networks, and people. And, with the massive numbers of things hitting the market—and our society—we attempt to answer the question surrounding our ability (or lack thereof) to scale the controls and protections to minimize—or perhaps even eliminate—undue exposure to risk introduced by these things.

ITSPmagazine’s Unusual Gatherings XXVIII:
Just How Smart Are Smart Airports?
Think about the last time you were in an airport, any airport.
Now think about the best mall you have ever been inside.
Was it the one with the best shopping or restaurant experiences? Did it have comfortable waiting areas? Or maybe the TSA security check lines were moving smoothly and the check-in process welcoming? Were the amenities clean? Or, perhaps, you felt a sense of security.
I bet that if you have seen some of the largest and most modern airports in the world you might have had the thought along the lines of something like "Wow, these are like small cities! I could almost live here." I also bet you were likely annoyed - even just a little bit - by the amount of time you had to present your passport, your boarding ticket and to have your identity questioned.
But here is one thing that you probably did not ask yourself:
“What does it take to run this thing - this airport that feels like a small city?"

What are methods of detecting an incident? We’ll spend the hour talking all about detection and what you can do to limit or contain the impact of a potential cybersecurity event:

Growing privacy concerns have Facebook users measurably less engaged, and recent findings show that they have serious concerns about trust and security on the site. So if you were counting on a future of low-effort, algorithm-driven advertising, you might want to go back to the drawing board. But, as Ben Mizes, Co-Founder of Clever Real Estate points out, there is some good news, too.
