Episode Notes
Vroom Vroom! The Black Hat Tradition with Sean and Marco
It's that time of year again, and Sean Martin and Marco Ciappelli are kicking things off with their customary banter on the road to Black Hat USA 2024. This time, there's no need to "vroom vroom" their way to Las Vegas as they'll be flying there instead. But no matter how they get there, it's all about reaching the grand event that is Black Hat.
A Decade of ITSP Magazine and Black Hat
Marco highlights a significant milestone for their publication: ITSP Magazine is celebrating its 10th anniversary, a journey that began alongside the Black Hat conference. Steve Wylie, who has also been with Black Hat since 2014, shares this sentiment of growth and reflection.
What to Expect at Black Hat USA 2024
Steve Wylie provides a comprehensive overview of what attendees can expect this year. As always, the event will bring the heat—literally, with Las Vegas temperatures scaling up to 108 degrees Fahrenheit. But beyond the weather, the Black Hat event itself will feature a multitude of new expansions.
Key Highlights
- Expanded Content Program: Black Hat is adopting a three-day format instead of its usual two, adding a day packed with additional activities and events.
- More Networking Opportunities: Attendees can look forward to broadening their professional circles with a variety of planned and unplanned networking events, including the Meetup Lounge and Track Chair Meet and Greets.
- Day Zero Program: Designed especially for newcomers, this pre-event briefing will help attendees make the most out of their experience.
- Innovative Summits: New summits, including an AI Summit, Innovators and Investors Summit, Industrial Controls Summit, and Cyber Insurance Summit, will target both technical and managerial audiences.
Deep Dives and Panel Discussions
Steve reveals a notable deviation from tradition: this year's keynote will be a panel discussion focused on defending democracy in an election year, featuring top cybersecurity leaders from the U.S., the EU, and the UK. This will be an essential kickoff, reflecting on the year’s heavy election schedule and the growing influence of AI.
Fireside Chat with Moxie Marlinspike
Another unique addition is a fireside chat with Moxie Marlinspike, founder of Signal, moderated by Jeff Moss. This discussion will delve into privacy concerns and the ever-important balance between privacy and security in today's technological landscape.
Arsenal and the NOC: Fan Favorites Return
Sean and Steve both tip their hats to recurring features such as Arsenal, which showcases cutting-edge tools developed by the cybersecurity community, and the NOC, where attendees can witness real-time network management and protection.
Wrapping Up
As Sean and Marco prepare to experience another electrifying Black Hat, they remind readers and listeners alike to subscribe to ITSP Magazine for exclusive coverage and insights. Whether you're able to attend in person or follow along remotely, Black Hat USA 2024 promises to be a crucial event for anyone in the cybersecurity field.
