Digital Arms Race: Strategic Insights for Security Leaders | Ep 9 with Nicole Perlroth

Thanks for tuning into Identity Radicals, the CISO-to-CISO podcast hosted by Veza. In this episode, Veza's Chief Security & Trust Officer, Mike Towers explores the evolving world of cyber threats, zero-day vulnerabilities, and the shifting responsibilities of enterprise security with acclaimed cybersecurity journalist and author Nicole Perlroth. Drawing from her investigative work and her bestselling book "This Is How They Tell Me the World Ends," Nicole explains how the global zero-day market has become a national security concern, with governments hoarding exploits for espionage and offensive cyber operations.

She also discusses how China’s hacking tactics have evolved—from brazen phishing campaigns to stealthy, targeted intrusions focused on critical infrastructure. As digital systems become more interconnected, Nicole argues that enterprises are now the new frontline of cyber defense, expected to guard against increasingly sophisticated nation-state actors.
This conversation highlights the urgent need for resilience over prevention, and why identity and access management has become a cornerstone of modern cybersecurity strategy. If you're looking to better understand the real-world impact of zero-days, the shifting threat landscape, and how organizations can respond, this episode is essential viewing.
