Onapsis Director of Product Management, Alex Horan, had the pleasure of speaking with Security Guy TV host, Chuck Harold, at Black Hat Las Vegas 2019 earlier this month. Alex and Chuck were able to discuss the unique offerings Onapsis can provide your organization, such as continuous monitoring and change assurance. “[People] have a lot to do,” Alex commented, “they have a lot of things running in their environments and understanding them all and knowing exactly what to do for all of them is a hard task.” This is a problem people have “lived with” for so long that they have become immune to it because these systems have been enabled for a long time. People assume they have not had a security issue, which is different from a technical issue, and therefore will never have one. Watch the interview below for the full story!
