Please join us on Friday July 21st, 2023 for Super Cyber Friday.

Our topic of discussion will be “Hacking 5G Security: An hour of critical thinking about the looming explosion of IoT on 5G networks.”

Joining David Spark (@dspark), producer of CISO Series for this discussion will be:

Kevin McNamee, security product manager, Nokia

Howard Holton, CTO and industry analyst, GigaOm

In preparation for our discussion, think about the following:

High level: What’s the excitement of 5G, what’s the fear?

In what ways has the attack surface expanded?

Will 5G completely swamp security? How will SOCs be able to do investigations on these incidents?

How have IoT botnets evolved in the last 4-5 years?

What are some of the horrible things that can happen to your 4G or 5G core?

What are the control planes we’re dealing with in 5G that we didn’t have to deal with before?

It all starts at 1 PM Eastern/10 AM Pacific. At the end of the hour [2 PM Eastern/11 AM Pacific] we'll switch gears to our meetup where everyone will get a chance to chat face to face.

Best bad ideas get first responses in "Department of YES" or “Beat the Bad Idea”.

The BEST bad idea wins an award and a really awesome CISO Series jacket. Also, if you register early by the Tuesday (5pm PT) of that week’s video chat, you will be entered into a raffle where one lucky register will win a jacket (Winners must be US residents. Repeat winners get a $25 Amazon gift card).

Super Cyber Fridays are open discussions where all viewers and listeners are welcome to become participants. Before the scheduled event, connect your webcam and microphone (avoid Bluetooth) and test your equipment here. During the discussion, if you have a question or comment, let it be known in the chat room and our producer will do his best to get as many of you into the conversation. We look forward to you joining us.
