How can we best apply data science techniques to gain security visibility?
What data you collect obviously affects your detection capabilities, but as many have painfully experienced; there can be too much of a good thing!
In this episode, Robby is joined by Jeff Barto. He is the Chief Security Officer at a large hedge fund in the US, has worked in security for over 20 years and has a lot of experience asking himself the question “how much data is enough?”. Jeff takes us through what types of data is he collecting and why, and how to collect data smartly to get the detection capabilities you need.
Robby and Jeff also discuss their take on the future of data science and security visibility, and whether now is the time to ditch people and leave security for the machines?

How effective is the use of Key Performance Indicators (KPIs) in security? Are they even relevant, and if so, do KPIs work differently for security teams than others?
In this episode, Robby chats with someone that’s had a lot to do with KPIs, both in his position as the former Head of the government CERT in Denmark (GovCERT), as well as a SOC Analyst for more than 10 years. Marc Andersen shares his experiences chasing KPIs, and discusses whether self-governance is a better alternative for security teams.

For this Norwegian episode of the mnemonic security podcast, Robby and co-host for the day Manager of Governance, Risk & Compliance at mnemonic, Gjermund Vidhammer, are joined by two major actors in the Norwegian cyber landscape: Robin Bakke, Specialist Director for Cyber Security at the Ministry of Justice & Public Security, and Bente Hoff, Director National Cyber Security Center (NCSC) at the Norwegian National Security Authority (NSM).
They discuss the importance, and the many different arenas, of private-public cooperation both in Norway and internationally, and share the Ministry and NSM’s thoughts on what’s important for digital security these days – and where they see most risk.
