Insider threats are creating new attack vectors, but old-school solutions could rise to the challenge.
Regardless of the situation or dynamic, everyone likes to think that they’re special. However, with experience we learn that appreciating both the shared similarities, as well as some of those unique traits, are how we can best solve problems.
A great example is a recent conversation I had with Umaimah Khan, founder and CEO of Opal Security – she goes by UK for short. Her firm focuses on the identify management sector of cybersecurity.
What UK constantly reinforced is that the industrial sector is not alone in trying to figure out the best ways to manage and secure human, equipment and asset identification. So, while some of the application challenges are unique, there’s a lot of strategies to draw from in determining what might be best for your enterprise.
Listen as we discuss:
- The challenges of identify management at both the human and machine levels.
- The need for fluid change management when it comes to determining who can access what, and at what level.
- Why the success of any cybersecurity initiative will be about what the human can or can't do, not the machine.
- How many security vulnerabilities are created by a "perfect storm of poor communication."
- Breaking down silos, which have created "security by obscurity."
- The new attack vectors poor identity management is creating.
- The evolving role of agentic AI in industrial cybersecurity.

Ruthie's Table 4
For more than 30 years The River Cafe in London, has been the home-from-home of artists, architects, designers, actors, collectors, writers, activists, and politicians. Michael Caine, Glenn Close, JJ Abrams, Steve McQueen, Victoria and David Beckham, and Lily Allen, are just some of the people who love to call The River Cafe home. On River Cafe Table 4, Rogers sits down with her customers—who have become friends—to talk about food memories. Table 4 explores how food impacts every aspect of our lives. “Foods is politics, food is cultural, food is how you express love, food is about your heritage, it defines who you and who you want to be,” says Rogers. Each week, Rogers invites her guest to reminisce about family suppers and first dates, what they cook, how they eat when performing, the restaurants they choose, and what food they seek when they need comfort. And to punctuate each episode of Table 4, guests such as Ralph Fiennes, Emily Blunt, and Alfonso Cuarón, read their favourite recipe from one of the best-selling River Cafe cookbooks. Table 4 itself, is situated near The River Cafe’s open kitchen, close to the bright pink wood-fired oven and next to the glossy yellow pass, where Ruthie oversees the restaurant. You are invited to take a seat at this intimate table and join the conversation.
