Today we hear from Doug Britton at Haystack, who has come up with a great approach that tells us whether a candidate will be successful in a cybersecurity career. The CATA (Cyber Aptitude and Talent Assessment) relates to cognitive skills in various cybersecurity practices and jobs. This is excellent for job seekers and hiring managers alike. Doug brings student Maria Marquez, who explains her experience and how results were successful. We also demonstrate correlations between NICE (National Initiative for Cybersecurity Education) training and job classifications. If you are a hiring manager or a job seeker, you will not want to miss this episode and check out testing services at HaystackSolutions.com.

Today’s show is about the secure development of software, known as DevSecOpps, as our guest calls it. We look at how to secure software from the perspective of someone trying to break it. Our Guest Ted Harrington has a background as a “Hacker” but has now turned from the dark side of the force to use his skills to help develop secure software. Ted has published a book called “Hackable.” After having the same conversation for years, Ted says the same ten categories kept coming to the top, and in his view, people were handling it the wrong way. We have a heated discussion on the divide between what our guest describes as “The way it has always been” and what he calls “The best approach.” Finally, he addresses the classic challenge of how security by design practices fit into a business. I think you will enjoy this new look at secure software development, where hackers and developers support each other by working together.

Our guest Kerry Matre from Mandiant Security supports marketing cybersecurity products. It is interesting to hear her path from application development and Security Intelligence to support marketing and business development. She brings the primary question to clients: why are we doing this, and how will people interact? Our guest says she often finds that many tools the organization purchased already are not fully implemented. The use of statistics such as configuration confidence is a very insightful measure, as she explains. What does it take to be using your tools effectively?
