Episode 78 -- Lessons from 2024's Biggest Cyber Incidents and Building Stronger Defenses for 2025

[Dave Chatterjee, Ph.D.]

Dear Colleagues:

A Very Happy New Year! Wishing you a magnificent 2025 and thank you for all your support. You will be happy to learn that the Cybersecurity Readiness Podcast series continues to grow and receive very good press — Business Insider/Markets Insider; GlobeNewsWire; and Yahoo!Finance.

In Episode 78,  Shrav Mehta, Founder and CEO at Secureframe, joins me to discuss major cybersecurity incidents in 2024, highlighting five significant breaches: National Public Data (2.7 billion records), AT&T (50 billion), Ticketmaster (500 million), Change Healthcare (145 million), and Dell (49 million). We emphasize the importance of proactive measures, such as data minimization, continuous training, and zero-trust models. I stressed the need for leadership engagement, robust incident response plans, and a holistic approach to security. Shrav underscores the role of automation and continuous monitoring in enhancing protection. We both agreed on the necessity of evolving security practices to counter emerging threats like deepfakes and AI-enabled attacks.
