Welcome back to OCA Community Connect, your source for all things related to the Open Cybersecurity Alliance. In today's episode, we have the pleasure of speaking with Vasilios Mavroeidis, a cybersecurity professor at the University of Oslo and a member of the OCA governing board. So, join us as Vasilios Mavroeidis shares his expertise and insights into the world of cybersecurity standards, offering a compelling look into the innovative CACAO roaster subproject and its potential to shape the future of cybersecurity operations.
This project aims to expand on the CACAO standard by providing an application that enables defenders to effectively design, sign, exchange and utilize playbooks. Vasilios advocates for the importance of this subproject, highlighting its potential to enhance the capacity of security operation centers, particularly for national security authorities and operators of essential services.
Throughout our conversation, Vasilios emphasizes the significance of community involvement in the project's development. He expresses the need for contributions from the wider cybersecurity community to improve the project, expand its capabilities, and create a valuable knowledge base of playbooks. Vasilios also delves into the potential for automation and the broad impact that the CACAO standard and in turn, the Roaster subproject could have on the field of cybersecurity.
