The Dangerous Reality of Your Cybersecurity Blast Radius

This latest episode of Security Breach discusses the business of ransomware and the eye-opening realities of how deeply recent attacks have penetrated industrial organizations.

In this episode of Security Breach, we're joined by Brian Vecci, the Field CTO of Varonis,  - a leading provider of cyber threat detection and response compliance software.

Varonis recently published their 2021 Manufacturing Data Risk Report, which offered analysis on threats, trends and potential solutions for a number of market sectors – including manufacturing. Included in their findings was that manufacturing was the fifth most targeted industry last year, with the average data breach costing nearly $5M, and taking over seven months to contain.

Overall, Varonis feels the industrial sector’s level of cybersecurity sophistication lags behind many of its peers in the financial and healthcare sectors. We recently sat down to discuss the report, understanding your cybersecurity blast radius, data as a production asset, password protections, and more.
