Mr. Robot Revisited - Season 2

Last year, I was one of the many viewers transfixed with Mr. Robot, USA networks' hybrid IT-science-thriller show. Both the realism of the character Elliot Anderson as coder/hacker/vigilante and the controlled panic of how cyber security teams defend against attacks.

Recently, I was fortunate to be interviewed by Tom's IT Pro regarding season 2 of the show. 

Read on to see, "What Can Mr. Robot Teach IT Pro's?"

Last year, we wrote our Mr. Robot season 1 blog on Lesson's Learned from Mr. Robot: Advanced Persistent Threats we discussed the DDoS attack against Evil Corp and Elliot's Achilles heel of curiosity and not deleting the "Don't delete me" file that opened the backdoor for the attackers to return.

Writer Sam Dunn and the good folks at Tom's IT Pro took another look at Mr. Robot - season 2, but from the perspective of "What Mr. Robot Can Teach IT Professionals." 

Please, click on over to their site and give it a read. Warning: Spoilers in article!

Disclosure: 
I'm a binge watcher and am not at the last episode of season 2. My preference is to tap a cold one and dive into about three episodes at a time.

Visibility is Key to Cyber Defense

You can train employees all you want, but cyber criminals are pioneering social engineering tactics to compromise the human component of cyber security—there’s no way around it. Ensuring total network visibility is the first step in a tight cyber security strategy because it will give you the insight you need to spot cyber security threats before they can reach their end goal.

Network TAPs have no IP addresses, no MAC address and cannot be hacked. They are invisible to the network, while providing your security and monitoring tools 100% network uptime and complete visibility, allowing your tools to see every bit, byte and packet®
