One phone call. One click. That's all it takes.
In this episode, Jess Carter talks with Jeffrey Foresman, VP of Cybersecurity at Resultant, about why today's most dangerous breaches don't start with technical flaws, but with people.
With over 30 years in the field, Jeffrey shares stories of social engineering attacks that bypass sophisticated defenses, explains why traditional compliance measures fall short, and outlines a more realistic framework for security: prevention, detection, and response.
Jess and Jeff also dig into human risk management, validation protocols, what it takes to build a culture where security is everyone's job, and slowing down just might save you.
In this episode, you will learn:
How attackers use urgency and familiarity to bypass internal controls
Why cybersecurity maturity starts with real-world threat alignment
What business leaders should ask about their help desk and MFA processes
