Show Notes:

[1:18] - Gabe shares his background and what he does in his roles at Rimini Street.
[2:38] - Anyone can be a victim of a scam. That includes Gabe.
[4:03] - Scams are very sophisticated and techniques have come a long way in the last decade.
[5:23] - Gabe describes what happened with the update that shut down much of the United States’ systems and infrastructure.
[8:30] - To complicate things, the platform could not be restarted with this update in effect.
[10:42] - Updates are sideloaded continuously and are processed by this kernel driver. The thought process is interesting because it has happened before.
[12:37] - This was the biggest problem caused by Crowdstrike.
[14:47] - One mistake out of 10,000 updates is a low error rate, but there is a lot of reputation damage done in this event.
[16:50] - In the case of Crowdstrike, turning off auto-update was not an option.
[18:43] - Any time software, programs, or data are introduced, you’re also introducing risk.
[21:04] - Part of the solution to fixing this massive problem was hands-on support on every box.
[26:13] - One problem is that there are some industries where technology is very outdated.
[27:23] - People are selling their solutions and the solutions are cloud-managed. This is scary due to frequent cloud breaches.
[31:10] - There are still businesses that have no security professionals or teams managing client data and safety.
[32:53] - The skills gap is crushing most businesses.
[35:03] - Security has come a long way, even if there are still areas of lack.
[37:01] - For the last couple of years, security has been something that there is a budget for in most businesses.
[40:49] - Don’t ever let anyone convince you to shortcut anything.
