Ever wonder how half-eaten pumpkin pie and dusty cybersecurity tools could possibly go together?
In this spirited episode of Cyber After Hours—S1E9: The Future of Cyber Threat Intelligence: Open Source vs. Proprietary—we kick things off by raising a toast to our amazing listeners and swapping some hilarious post-Thanksgiving tales.
Think family drama, questionable leftover recipes, and a few laughs about why some security products end up collecting cobwebs instead of catching threats.
From there, we dive headfirst into the debate on open-source vs. paid intel, comparing the hands-on effort of free data to the plug-and-play appeal of curated subscriptions.
We revisit the legendary bank DDoS incidents, highlighting how real-time intel sharing and genuine collaboration saved more than just the day—it saved reputations.
Of course, we can’t forget the occasional “cyber theater” that plagues our industry, reminding everyone to invest in tools that actually protect, not just impress.
We wrap up with a lively discussion on the nuts and bolts of building a threat intelligence program (yes, we even chat about budget surprises and potential tax write-offs).
Laughter and lessons learned go hand in hand in this episode, so whether you’re a seasoned security pro or new to the intel game, you’ll find camaraderie, fresh insights, and plenty of fun.
Grab your leftovers, tune in, and join us on this entertaining journey through the ever-evolving world of cyber threat intelligence!
