Episode notes

Trevor Hilligoss, Head of Security Research at SpyCloud  and former FBI agent, joins the show to discuss why humans remain the biggest security risk facing organizations today. From reused credentials to commoditized cybercrime tools, Trevor breaks down how attackers actually gain access — and why focusing on real-world human behavior is more effective than worrying about sophisticated nation-state threats.

Hosted by Jon McLachlan and Sasha Sinkevich — co-founders of YSecurity.
