Dark Cubed Insights

Two days before New Years, something interesting happened in the world of cyber security. The Department of Homeland Security released a report on hacking activities by Russian Intelligence Services related to activities against the U.S. Government. The report was somewhat interesting, however DHS also released a set of indicators in a .csv file with 956 lines of data. As the CEO of a new cyber security startup focused on using data in smarter, more interesting ways, this data tugged and pulled at me in a way that I did not expect. Over the next two days, in between (and through) family events, football games, and dogs grabbing food off of the counters, I sat on a stool in my in-law’s kitchen and tuned out the world.

I was on the road last week and had plenty of airplane time to catch-up on some overdue reading and reflection.  The conclusion of the week was market by a rather interesting event that caused a relatively significant event on the Internet with the DDoS attack against the Dyn’s architecture.  Now, just to warn you, this isn’t a posting about how we could have fixed it and how we are the magic bullet for cyber security…we aren’t that obtuse (although many other cyber security companies are seizing this as a marketing opportunity).  Anyway, while at home this weekend and in between baseball games and kid birthday parties, I had a chance to reflect on the week and our vision at Dark Cubed, I was struck by the impact of three events from the week.
