"At the end of the day Zero Trust is about ensuring not just the correct user is signing in, but device trust, making sure they're using the correct laptop." - Jason Meller, Kolide CEO

Jason Meller joined the the CyberWire podcast with Dave Bittner to discuss all things Shadow IT, listen now: https://thecyberwire.com/podcasts/daily-podcast/1949/notes

Shopping during wartime? Focus, people.

Cyber safety for the holidays. Using regulatory risk to pressure a ransomware victim. A call for regulatory action against a supply chain threat. Rhysida malware: a warning and a description. Extending local breaches in Google Workspace. Protestware in open-source products. GRU's Sandworm implicated in campaign against Danish electrical power providers. Jason Meller, Founder & CEO of Kolide joins us as part of our sponsored Industry Voices segment to discuss the findings from The Shadow IT Report. In this Threat Vector segment, David Moulton sits down with Sama Manchanda, a consultant at Unit 42 to discuss the fascinating world of social engineering attacks. And donation scams: exploiting sympathy.

"It's easier to get things done at a smaller company."

The go-to mantra for startups is usually move fast and break things, but for Watershed, it's move fast and secure things.

Watch our CEO Jason Meller's recent talk with Jesse Kriss of Watershed. https://www.kolide.com/blog/watershed-thinks-big-to-keep-a-small-team-secure

Okay, in truth, this recent hashtag game on Mastodon may be too stupid for a company account, but we HAD to.

We see a lot of people talking about the product announcements from OpenAI's DevDay. But why isn’t anyone talking about how OpenAI decided to handle the whole “copyright” issue?

Paying the legal fees of business users seems like a wild way to put people at ease about using it in the workplace (which hey, we wrote more about on the Kolide blog: https://www.kolide.com/blog/89-of-workers-use-ai-far-fewer-understand-the-risks).

89% of Workers Use AI–Far Fewer Understand the Risks

Most companies are eager to embrace AI, but have little notion of how their employees are using it.

347: Trolls, military data, and the hitman and her

A woman's attempt to hire an assassin online backfires badly, it's scary just how cheap it is to buy information about US military personnel, and trolls and tattoos don't mix. All this and much much more is discussed in the latest edition of the "Smashing Security" podcast by cybersecurity veterans

Smashing Security

When a SaaS app discovers a vulnerability in their product, they warn their customers and release a patch. When an AI tool generates unsafe code, you may have no idea, especially if you're not even aware your colleagues are using AI.

That's why in this week's Kolidescope newsletter we cover AI's part in Shadow IT, and how to bring some much-needed transparency to this issue.

Also, enjoy the latest Adventures in IT comic!

Is AI here to make our lives easier, or is it eroding what it means to be human?

That's the conundrum all of us are trying to figure out as AI evolves and permeates our lives. But before you make an overarching decision on whether AI is all good or all bad, we beg for nuance.

That's why in this week's Kolidescope newsletter we cover AI's duality: making bad actors more effective while at the same time lessening the programming burden for developers.

We also cover:

• Social login 0Auth misconfigurations
• Vishing "safe words"
• Dangerous IT admin password habits
• The latest Adventures in IT comic
•And more!
