Show Notes

In this episode of the Endace Packet Forensic files, Michael Morris talks with Andrew Stewart, Senior National Security and Government Strategist at Cisco.  Andrew, CAPT, USN (Ret.) is a Senior Federal Strategist at Cisco where he implements strategies to support innovative cybersecurity and AI/ML solutions across the Federal Government.  He also served as the Commanding Officer and Program Manager at the Navy Cyber Warfare Development Group (NCWDG).

With Andrew’s experience in national security and government agencies, Michael asks him for his thoughts about all the new Whitehouse mandates, and cybersecurity policies from CISA such as the emphasis on Zero Trust and other important initiatives.  We discuss whether what organizations are doing is sufficient given the risks posed by nation-state threat actors.

Andrew highlights some cybersecurity trends, including the ever-changing nature of threats as hybrid cloud operating environments continue to expand the threat spectrum and transform the way we work.  Visibility, he says, remains the key to mastering and controlling such a dynamic threat environment.
