While companies utilize dozens of security solutions, they continue to be compromised and are continually searching for their real cybersecurity gaps amongst the overload of vulnerability data. A primary issue security teams face is that they lack a way to continuously validate the effectiveness of the different security solutions they have in place. Automated Security Validation is revolutionizing cybersecurity by applying software validation algorithms, for what was once manual penetration testing jobs. It takes the attacker\'s perspective to challenge the integrity and resilience of security defenses by continuously emulating cyber attacks against them.

Bill Brenner, VP of content strategy at CyberRisk Alliance, and Cisco storyteller/team leader/editor Steve Ragan discuss the issues security professionals are sinking their teeth into at RSA Conference 2023, including:

• Threats organizations face amid geopolitical strife (Russia/Ukraine, China, North Korea)
• What SOCs need to respond to a world on fire (training for cloud-based ops, XDR)
• Challenges of identity and access management (zero trust, MFA, hybrid work environments)
• Challenges of vulnerability management (finding the most critical flaws in the cloud, key attack vectors in 2023, ransomware)
