The Real-World Value Of Telling Stories And The Role Of Visual Art In Ethical Hacking Videos | A Conversation With YouTuber SecAura | Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast With Sean Martin
SecAura is an amateur YouTuber whose post I came across caught my attention. SecAura creates free educational videos for ethical hacking and does so while going the extra mile to hand-craft many of the animations used in the videos. All of this is done outside of the 9-5 job SecAura has as a penetration tester. Realizing that the technical subjects needed diagrams and that these elements were a core part of the videos being created, SecAura decided to hand-craft the animations for each of the subjects being prepared, teaching himself all that was required to do so while constantly trying to improve with each video released.SecAura aims to have every video released be at the top of its game in terms of teaching someone who knows very little about a subject and getting them to a great foundational and applicable position just from watching his videos. He also hopes to extend the community and help to create the next generation of cybersecurity professionals by providing them with real, practical skills, backed by the theory!About SecAura [from Twitter]By day I work as a pentester, and in the evening, I compete in CTFs/cyber things. I have always loved teaching, and wanted to give back to the cyber community the best I can, so I made my YouTube Channel.It was a treat speaking with SecAura, learning about the creativity, passion, and production that goes into the making each of these videos, and how they can be used by those looking to enter the field of information security, preparing for a job interview, looking to grow their skills as they aspire to take on new roles or perhaps even get promoted at their job.So many uses cases — lots of great content — all from a super cool human.____________________________GuestSecAuraEthical Hacking Content CreatorOn Twitter | https://twitter.com/secaura_On LinkedIn | https://www.linkedin.com/in/sec-aura-57736422a/On YouTube | https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCx89Lz24SEPZpExl6OfQ0Gg____________________________This Episode’s SponsorsImperva: https://itspm.ag/imperva277117988Asgardeo by WSO2: https://itspm.ag/asgardeo-by-wso2-u8vc____________________________ResourcesMore information about SecAura: https://twitter.com/secaura_/status/1518241710412808192The new SQLi video discussed during the conversation: UNLEASH THE POWER OF SQL INJECTION | A beginners guide: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Y4MpvB6o7sVIDEO: Web Fundamentals for Cyber Security | HTTP for Hackers | 0x01 (Animated): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ro-5AjgoPc4____________________________To see and hear more Redefining Security content on ITSPmagazine, visit:https://www.itspmagazine.com/redefining-cybersecurityAre you interested in sponsoring an ITSPmagazine Channel?👉 https://www.itspmagazine.com/podcast-series-sponsorships Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

From Enrolling In College To Gambling, Traveling, And Shopping, Evasive Bad Bots Are A Major Source Of Online Fraud | The Bad Bot Report 2022 | Part 1 | An Imperva Brand Story With Ryan Windham
A new year and a new Bad Bot Report from Imperva. How is it looking? Well, this year, we see an increase in the sophistication level of bad bots compared to last year, with advanced bad bots accounting for 25.9% of all bad bot traffic in 2021, compared to 16.7% in 2020. In addition, evasive bad bots are on the rise, no industry is immune, and Account Takeover attacks are more prevalent than ever.The good news is that not all bots are Superbad — they go from Simple to Moderate, Advanced, and, Evasive — and we are getting better at finding them.During our conversation this year, we take a quick look back in time to last year's report to see what some of the changes are. Sadly, the team at Imperva is seeing more of the advanced bots we discussed during this conversation. Unfortunately, their ability to emulate human behavior makes them much more difficult to detect.What's driving a lot of this rise in bad bots? More and more services are moving online.We hope you enjoy this Part 1 of 2 conversations as we explore and uncover the consequences of bad bots for our business and society.About the 2022 Imperva Bad Bot ReportLeveraging data from its global network, Imperva Threat Research investigates the rising volume of automated attacks occurring daily, evading detection while wreaking havoc and committing online fraud. The 9th annual Imperva Bad Bot Report is based on data collected from the Imperva global network throughout 2021. The data is composed of hundreds of billions of blocked bad bot requests, anonymized over thousands of domains. The goal of this report is to provide meaningful information and guidance about the nature and impact of these automated threats.Bot attacks are often the first indicator of fraudulent activity online, whether it’s validating stolen user credentials and credit card information to later be sold on the dark web, or scraping proprietary data to gain a competitive advantage. Often bots are used to surveil applications and APIs in an attempt to discover vulnerabilities or weak security. Online fraud from automated bot attacks is not only a threat to the business, but it is first and foremost a risk to customers. Bad bot attacks might cause customers to be unable to access their accounts or have sensitive information stolen from them due to successful account takeover fraud.Bad bots mask themselves and attempt to interact with applications in the same way a legitimate user would, making them harder to detect and block. They enable high-speed abuse, misuse, and attacks on your websites, mobile apps, and APIs. They allow bot operators, attackers, unsavory competitors, and fraudsters to perform a wide array of malicious activities.Such activities include web scraping, competitive data mining, personal and financial data harvesting, brute-force login, digital ad fraud, denial of service, denial of inventory, spam, transaction fraud, and more.Note: This story contains promotional content.
