Why Do So Many Cybersecurity Products Suck?

All links and images for this episode can be found on CISO Series Why do we end up with so many bad security products? Who is to blame and how can we fight back an ecosystem that may be fostering subpar products? Check out this post for the discussions that are the basis of our conversation on this week’s episode co-hosted by me, David Spark (@dspark), the producer of CISO Series, and Geoff Belknap (@geoffbelknap), CISO, LinkedIn. Our sponsored guest is Haroon Meer (@HaroonMeer), founder and researcher, Thinkst Canary. Thanks to our podcast sponsor, Thinkst Canary Most Companies find out way too late that they’ve been breached. Thinkst Canary changes this. Deploy Canaries in minutes and then forget about them. Attackers tip their hand by touching ’em giving you the one alert, when it matters. With 0 admin overhead and almost no false-positives, Canaries are deployed (and loved) on all 7 continents. In this episode: Is the cybersecurity ecosystem giving a rise to subpar products? Why are so many security products implemented poorly How important is vendor feedback?
