Karim Toubba, the CEO of Kenna Security, discusses why the root cause of so many breaches are coming back to unpatched systems, what companies should do when they learn they are vulnerable to the same type of attacks that are crippling other organizations in the news, and he provides his analysis of how effective tactics used by companies have been thus far in mitigating known vulnerabilities in their systems. Toubba also gives his thoughts on how close we are to automating the remediation of vulnerabilities, how effective are the most popular vulnerability scanning tools used in the marketplace, and how organizations need to properly evaluate risk to understand their real priorities. Host George Rettas also provides commentary on the crippling ransomware attack on the City of Atlanta and the public safety consequences they will face if they decide not to pay the ransom to the attackers.
