2: Democratizing Security with Wendy Nather

Wendy Nather, Head of Advisory CISOs at Cisco Duo, joins us for the latest episode of Security Stories. Wendy discusses how we can involve users in our security practices, rather than blaming them when they fall foul of the rules. And she comes up with a unique idea for shaking up the security industry.

Also in this episode, Ben has some handy tips for remote workers and how we can all play our part to ensure the security and privacy of our data. More details about how Cisco is supporting companies with an expansion of our free security offerings is available here https://blogs.cisco.com/security/cisco-expands-free-security-offerings-to-help-with-rise-in-remote-workers 

We also chat about how cyber criminals might be taking advantage of the current situation - more details are available on the Talos blog https://blog.talosintelligence.com/2020/03/covid-19-pandemic-threats.html

And finally our 'On this Day' feature, where we look back into the cybersecurity archives, takes us on a journey of the Conficker worm, and how April Fools Day 2009 was shaping up to be a key day in cybersecurity history before things took a surprising turn.
