Summary:

In this episode, Timothy De Block and Jonathan Singer dive into the challenges of modern enterprise security. The conversation covers how organizations—using McDonald's as an example—face threats from both digital and physical vectors. They explore how hackers might exploit everything from public Wi-Fi to social engineering tactics and touch on the evolving role of security leaders in dealing with both controllable and uncontrollable risks.

Key Topics:

• Digital & Physical Attack Vectors: Discussion on hacking tactics such as public Wi-Fi, kiosk vulnerabilities, API exploitation, and social engineering.

• Security Beyond the Firewall: Why enterprise security involves more than just digital defense—physical security, insider threats, and brand manipulation also pose risks.

• The Growing Complexity of Security: How new technologies, like IoT devices and AI, are adding layers of complexity to enterprise security.

• Insider Threats & Social Engineering: The impact of internal threats, from disgruntled employees to social engineering attacks, on large organizations.

Rapid-Fire Hacking Vectors:

1. Public Wi-Fi

2. Self-service kiosks

3. Badge cloning

4. Typo-squatting for domains

5. Supply chain dependencies

6. Insider threats
