Detection Dispatch (Alex's Version)
Detection Dispatch (Alex's Version) is an independent podcast focused on detection engineering and threat hunting. It features a community-first approach and highlights real, active projects that are pushing the boundaries of detection engineering, threat hunting, and related fields.
Episodes
Apple, Please Give Us More Logs feat. Patrick Wardle
Patrick Wardle joins Detection Dispatch to explore what happens when the things we trust become the things we stop looking at.From signed and notarized applications hiding malicious dylibs to trusted processes inheriting privileges, Patrick walks through the places where macOS can look completely clean until you look underneath it.We get into dynamic library hijacking, the limitations of process l
Bill Gates’ AI Manifesto, Stolen LLMs & AI Honeypots feat. Eli Woodward
Eli Woodward joins Detection Dispatch to explore what happens when AI becomes both the thing we're building and the thing we're trying to detect.From a Christmas AWS honeypot experiment that turned into a global network of AI honeypots to millions of captured prompts, Eli walks through what attackers are actually doing with exposed AI infrastructure and what those behaviors reveal about
AI Won’t Fix Your Detections. Your Linux Detection Engineer Will & also Happy Birthday, Linux 🎂
Pawel Mazur joins Detection Dispatch to talk about what happens when you stop trusting detections at face value, especially when AI is involved. From generating detection logic with an LLM to actually running the technique with EDR silencers, to bypassing rules, and digging into the telemetry underneath it, Pawel makes the case for a much more skeptical approach to detection engineering.In this ep
The Detection Factory (Loop Engineering in Practice)
Tejas Paranjape joins Detection Dispatch to talk about what a detection factory can actually look like in practice and what changes when detection engineering becomes a repeatable, code driven production process rather than a collection of rules living in someone’s head. His Detection Factory breaks the work into specialized stages for writing, tuning, reviewing, testing, and shipping detections,
Sysmon for AI Visibility feat. Anton Ovrutksy
Anton Ovrutsky from Huntress joins Detection Dispatch to talk about ATEN, his latest open-source project to do what Sysmon did for win event telemetry to AI agents. The idea came from a pretty simple realization: as security practitioners, we’re comfortable saying “we don’t have the telemetry for that”...And there’s a LOT missing.In this episode we get into:The “what the hell did I just give Claud
There's No D3FEND for AI (So He Built One) feat. Edward Lee
Quick count: MITRE ATLAS, OWASP's Top 10s, NIST AML, Cisco's framework, MAESTRO, Databricks' AI security framework..Every org says "go do AI security," startups are popping out to sel lit to you…points you at a pile of frameworks that all describe the same handful of problems in slightly different words, and leaves you to cross-reference them yourself at 11pm.Edward Lee jo
Your Dream Job Offer Might Depend on You Cloning/Running Malicious GitHub Repos feat. Tim Peck
The job market is shitty right now, and threat actors are exploiting exactly that. Developers are a hot target, and it cuts both ways: they'll come at you as a fake recruiter sending a "coding test" straight off GitHub, or as a fake candidate using a stolen identity to get hired and work the inside. Cloning and running a malicious repo is now just part of the interview process. Doin
Red Team Wrote a Book on Evading You. Literally. feat. Dennis Chow & Michael LaSalvia
Dennis Chow (Detection Engineering Director, back for round two) and Michael LaSalvia (red team lead) join Dispatch to talk about their new book, Evasion Engineering: Building Custom Red Team Tools for the Modern Defenses, and what happens when a blue teamer and a red teamer decide to write the playbook together instead of against each other.In this episode we get into:Why off-the-shelf adversary
What Headless Actually Means feat. Maxime Lamothe-Brassard Founder of LimaCharlie
The definition of headless is taking shape. More software is shipping with an MCP. Teams are starting to require it in procurement. Your CLI and Claude Code can now talk directly to the tools you already run.LimaCharlie was one of the first platforms in the SOC to build everything through the command line....long before the post-Claude boom. Maxime Lamothe-Brassard (their founder) joins Dispatch t
Words are Cheap. Sense Making is Not..feat. Diego Perez
What happens when a philosopher walks into a SOC? Apparently, he builds one from the ground up, spends a decade making sense of detection engineering across financial services, global IR teams, and now Canva. Diego Perez is a detection engineer who studied philosophy, taught himself security at 2am with a newborn in the other room, and has been quietly writing some of the sharpest unsloppy takes o
DE on Mac Finally Has a Champion. Her name is Olivia Gallucci.
macOS detection engineering has had a documentation problem for years. Everyone told Olivia Gallucci she was locking herself into a platform nobody cared about. Then infostealers showed up, enterprise Mac fleets exploded, and suddenly her work was the most in-demand research nobody knew existed.Olivia is a security engineer at Datadog living inside macOS internals...from Apple Silicon boot chain t
GRC, the Passenger Princess of the SOC? feat. Ayoub Fandi
GRC has been called the passenger princess of security for too long. In this episode, Alex sits down with Ayoub Fandi, GRC engineer and author of the GRC Engineer newsletter, to make the case that GRC and detection engineering are solving solving the same problems and somehow still not working together.This episode covers:Why GRC plays PvE while everyone else in security plays PvP and why that act
A DE's Guide to Staying in the Loop feat. Your Favorite Detection Engineering Instructor Hayden Covington
Detection Dispatch (Alex's Version) episode two brings on the person who treats detection engineering like an actual craft....not a vendor feature list, not a MITRE bingo card, not a vibe coded rule you ship and forget. Hayden teaches detection engineering at Antisyphony Training and runs the SOC at Black Hills Information Security, which means he's not theorizing. He's got the reps
Axios, Mythos, and a Lethal Trifecta Walk Into a SOC feat. John Hammond
Detection Dispatch (Alex's Version) premieres with John Hammond...Huntress senior researcher, former DoD red team, the guy 2M+ people watch break attacks down in real time for the red-meets-blue conversation the week forced into existence. Alex came up blue. John came up red. They meet in the middle on the three stories eating the industry alive.In this episode we cover: Axios: one patient so
