In a series of posts entitled Autonomous Everything, we are exploring automation in all its technological forms, including legacy working assumptions about the term itself. Autonomy is not just about the future of the automobile and personal mobility but includes a broad autonomous future in areas such as Security Automation, Automation and the Workforce, Automation – or Augmentation – of the Workforce, and Automation of AI/Machine Learning Training Models and Industry Standardization.
Recently, we checked in with OODA Network Member Junaid Islam, a well-known cybersecurity expert, about “Automated Continuous Threat Testing”. We continue this conversation to discuss the increased cyber risks Enterprises face due to the current geo-political environment and actions they should take to mitigate cybersecurity and operational risk.
Junaid is a Senior Partner at OODA. He has over 30 years of experience in secure communications and has led the development of many network protocols including Multi-Level Precedence and Preemption (MLPP), MPLS priority queuing, Mobile IPv6 for Network Centric Warfare, and Software Defined Perimeter for Zero Trust. He founded Bivio Networks and Vidder, the first Zero Trust access control solution which he sold to Verizon. Currently, he advises the Department of Defense and NASA on networking projects and recently developed the first interference-aware routing algorithm. Junaid is also on the Board of XQ Message, a Zero Trust Data Protection start-up.
