CCT 356: Supply Chain Attacks Are Exploding in 2026 — Here's What the NCSC Wants You to Do Jun 8, 2026 2498 Send us Fan MailYour software is only as trustworthy as the dependencies you quietly inherit and attackers know it. Today I break down the NCSC warning on software supply chain security and why open source package ecosystems have become a high-value target for real-world compromises that spread fast through CI/CD pipelines.I walk through the attack patterns that keep showing up in incidents: maint
CCT 355: Zapier Breach Lessons For Cloud Security and Setting Up TPRM Program in 15 Minutes Jun 4, 2026 1466 Send us Fan MailThe breach that takes down a company often does not kick in the front door. It walks in through a “simple” integration you set up months ago, powered by a token no one remembered to rotate. We start with a real-world Zapier-style scenario and unpack how researchers chained together a harmless-looking code block, an AWS Lambda environment, and a misconfigured IAM role to reach priva
CCT 354: Data Security Controls and Compliance Requirements for the CISSP (Domain 2.3) - REPLAY Jun 1, 2026 2248 Send us Fan MailYour firewall can be patched tomorrow, but what about the place your system hides its real secrets today? We start with a timely warning about a serious Fortinet FortiGate vulnerability and why perimeter devices are still a make-or-break control, then we pivot into the deeper layer most people ignore until it’s too late: memory.We walk through CISSP Domain 3.4 by focusing on what m
CCT 353: AI Agent Governance Essentials - CISSP Practice Questions May 28, 2026 1706 Send us Fan MailAI agents are landing in production faster than most security teams can track them, and the scariest part is how normal they can look. When an autonomous agent runs the same workflow 10,000 times, your SIEM and EDR may see “nothing to worry about” even while the agent quietly drifts outside its intended scope. That is the core AI governance problem we tackle, through the lens of CI
CCT 352: Data Security Controls and Compliance Requirements for the CISSP (Domain 2.3) - REPLAY May 25, 2026 2419 Send us Fan MailYour security program can be airtight and still get wrecked by someone else’s breach. We open with a Wired-style reality check: third-party app ecosystems and data brokers collecting location analytics at massive scale, then getting hacked or resold in ways your users never expected. If your organisation issues mobile devices, this is where security awareness, MDM controls, and cle
CCT351: BitLocker Bypass Reality Check (YellowKey) and CISSP Practice Questions May 21, 2026 1468 Send us Fan MailBitLocker feels like a safety net until you see how a single bypass can change the whole risk picture. Today we react to the Yellow Key vulnerability (noted in the news and referenced as CVE 2645585) and use it as a practical CISSP training moment: a public proof of concept is available, a vendor patch is not, and the attack hinges on physical access. That mix forces you to think c
CCT 350: Investigation Types Made Simple - CISSP Training (Replay) May 18, 2026 2689 Send us Fan MailDefault passwords are the kind of problem everyone “knows” about and yet they still open doors for attackers every day. We start with a quick reality check on router security and why factory settings, legacy gear, and unmanaged IoT and OT devices can turn a simple misconfiguration into redirect attacks, man-in-the-middle exposure, DDoS headaches, or silent monitoring. If you’re stu
CCT 349: FOXCONN Hack and Domain 7 CISSP Practice Questions May 14, 2026 1700 Send us Fan MailEight terabytes of stolen schematics is not just a scary number, it is a reminder that cyber risk becomes business risk fast. We start with the Wired report on the Foxconn ransomware attack and unpack what a claim like that could mean in the real world: intellectual property exposure, supply chain disruption, customer impact, and the uncomfortable truth that recovery is only one pa
CCT Vendor 04: The Practical Realities of Geopolitical Cyber Risk - Next Peak Interview May 13, 2026 1700 Send us Fan MailNext Peak:   https://nextpeak.net/services/icr/A regional conflict can spike your cyber risk even if your offices never move and your headcount never changes. That is the uncomfortable reality behind geopolitical cyber risk, and it is why I brought on Helen Lee, Director of Intelligence Cyber Research at NextPeak, to break down how global flashpoints turn into real security problem
CCT 348: ClaudeBleed - The Hidden Risk In AI Browser Extensions and CISSP Domain 3 May 11, 2026 2040 Send us Fan MailYour browser just became a security boundary you can’t afford to ignore. We start with ClaudeBleed, a vulnerability in the Claude AI Chrome extension that shows how an AI browser agent can be hijacked by another malicious extension, even one with zero special permissions. When an agent can act “as you” inside a trusted environment, the risk jumps from theory to real outcomes like s

We break down what that looks like in real organizations, why it di
CCT 346: Testing Disaster Recovery Plans and Why BEC Still Works Despite MFA (CISSP Domain 7) May 4, 2026 1613 Send us Fan MailMFA feels like the finish line until you watch a company wire tens of millions of dollars to an attacker without a single password being stolen. We dig into why business email compromise (BEC) still works even in “secure” environments, because the real target is the decision point: trust, timing, urgency, and authority. When attackers can spoof executives or use deepfake voice and
