Episode 146: Elections Loom, Political Parties struggle with Cyber Security and Securing Cloud with Aporeto’s Amir Sharif

A Security Ledger episode highlights a SecurityScorecard survey finding widespread weak cybersecurity hygiene among over 20 European political parties and four major U.S. parties — issues include expired site certificates, insecure web applications, and signs of malware or botnet infections — and frames these weaknesses as an enabler for nation-state election interference; the episode also discusses how DevOps and cloud adoption change enterprise risk and the need for identity-based access controls.
