[Security Nation] Jen and Tod on Hacker Summer Camp 2022

Last updated at Thu, 18 Aug 2022 01:03:16 GMT

In this episode of Security Nation, Tod and Jen chat about their experience at this year's Hacker Summer Camp, the multi-event lineup of cybersecurity conferences in Las Vegas that includes BSides, Black Hat, and DEF CON. Tod gives us his highlights from the virtual sessions, and Jen recounts her jam-packed week of presentations (which resulted in a somewhat diminished ability to use her voice for this recording).

No Rapid Rundown this week, since our Vegas wrap-up overlaps with much of the latest security news, making it a Rapid Rundown in itself!

Show notes

Learn more about some of our favorite presentations from the Vegas conferences, including:

• Susan Paskey on threat hunting in MFA logs

• Gaurav Keerthi, Pete Cooper, and Lily Newman on global policy challenges
• Jake Baines on Cisco ASA vulnerabilities and weaknesses (check out the blog post, too)
