It’s All About the Data: Understanding Your Blast Radius to Reduce Risk – Matt Radolec – BSW #307
You can rebuild infrastructure. But you can’t un-breach data – Data sits at the core of an organization and is often the most open and vulnerable. This is why data security is the most important and urgent security problem to solve right now. We’re joined by Matt Radolec, Senior Director of Incident Response and Cloud Operations at Varonis, to walk through the blast radius concept – from what it is and how to use it to understand your organization's risk, to how it can serve as a guide to securing data from insiders and external attackers.
