Talos Takes Ep. #37: What's with all this talk about supply chain attacks?
Summary: In this episode of Talos Takes, Nick Biasini discusses the history of supply chain attacks, tracing them back to the 1970s, in the context of the SolarWinds campaign that had been generating headlines for weeks. The episode also looks back on 10 years of Talos through interviews with its leaders and revisits major cybersecurity incidents from that period.
Key Takeaway: The SolarWinds campaign's specific targets made it unique, but supply chain attacks predate it by decades, back to the 1970s - so the technique behind the headlines is not a new problem your organization can treat as a one-off.
