  • Maximizing the Value of MDR with ThreatLocker
    Jun 2 2025

    Security teams today are expected to manage two fronts—building and maintaining proactive defenses, and staying ready to respond at any moment to threats that slip through. But unless someone actively watches those alerts 24/7, your detection tools are expensive noise generators.

    In this episode, Rob Allen, chief product officer at ThreatLocker, lays out why their Cyber Hero® MDR offering is built not as a standalone security strategy, but as a complement to a deny-by-default, proactively hardened environment. With real-time visibility, flexible communication, one-click remediation, and human-backed support—not just automation—ThreatLocker’s MDR offering is positioned to deliver value even when the alerts are quiet. Joining him are TC Niedzialkowski, head of IT and security at Opendoor, and Sasha Pereira, CISO at WASH.

  • Stopping AI Oversharing with Knostic
    May 28 2025

    Large language models are most useful to your business when they have access to your data. But these models also overshare by default, providing need-to-know information without sophisticated access controls. But organizations that try to limit the data accessed by an LLM risk undersharing within their organization, not giving the information users need to do their jobs more efficiently.

    In this episode, Sounil Yu, CTO at Knostic, explains how they address internal knowledge segmentation, offer continuous assessments, and help prevent oversharing while also identifying under-sharing opportunities. Joining him are our panelists, Ross Young, CISO-in-residence at Team8, and David Cross, CISO at Atlassian.

  • Navigating Unauthorized Site Access with ThreatLocker
    May 19 2025

    Unauthorized site access remains a significant security concern for organizations. But why does this issue persist, and how can it be effectively addressed?

    In this episode, Rob Allen, chief product officer at ThreatLocker, discusses the core functionality of ThreatLocker's Web Control solution: blocking access to unauthorized sites without meddling with DNS servers—a common pitfall among other tools. Rob explains that the simplicity of defining where employees can and cannot access is pivotal. This approach not only helps keep users away from malicious sites but also steers them clear of non-productive ones, thereby enhancing resource allocation. Rob is joined by our panelists, TC Niedzialkowski, Head of IT & Security at Opendoor, and Sasha Pereira, CISO, WASH.
