Episode Notes

In this episode of Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast, host Sean Martin converses with Christopher Salgado about the critical yet overlooked aspects of cyber investigations. Salgado's rich experiences, from being an insurance investigator in Chicago to working on Facebook's global investigations division and being a key player amidst the Cambridge Analytica crisis, lay the foundation for this engrossing dialogue.

Salgado elaborates on the unique challenges posed by cyber investigations—being analytical, yet organic; thorough, yet flexible—straddling between rigidity of process and fluidity of response. Pragmatism and diligent investigation are pitched alongside the usefulness of AI tools, which, as per Salgado, can be both ally and adversary.

Highlighting the importance of operating within established processes, Salgado presses on the need for standardization and streamlining, without compromising on the inherently organic nature of investigative work. He underscores how modifiable Standard Operating Procedures (SOPs) can uphold consistency and enable comprehensive learning, while staying legally sound and economically feasible.

Salgado also draws attention to the flip-side of AI-tools—potential data-leaks and the threat of manipulated AI-platforms. Corporations employing AI must weigh their usage against the risks, envisaging issues of data-privacy, information-misuse, and disinformation before rolling out (or permitting vendors to use) AI-based systems.

In a nutshell, this enlightening conversation delves into the complexities of cyber investigations, the indispensable role of AI, and the necessity of solid processes, making it a must-listen for cybersecurity enthusiasts and cyber sleuths alike.

Top 3 Questions Addressed:

• What role do processes and standardization play in effective cyber investigations?
• How do AI tools aid in cyber investigations, and what are the potential risks?
• What potential risks does modern technology present, especially AI, in the context of cybersecurity?
