The Microsoft Threat Intelligence Podcast
Join us to hear stories from the Microsoft Threat Intelligence community as they navigate the ever-evolving threat landscape - uncovering APTs, cybercrime gangs, malware, vulnerabilities, and other weird and cool tools and tactics in the world of cyber threats.
Mapping the identity surface attack.
Justin Kohler from SpecterOps joins Dave Bittner on the CyberWire Daily podcast for a sponsored Industry Voices at the RSAC Conference 2026. He discusses the evolution of identity attack path management, how tools like BloodHound are expanding visibility across hybrid environments, and why understanding cross-platform identity relationships is critical to reducing enterprise risk.

Innovation through Attack Path Management.
Jared Atkinson from SpecterOps joins Dave Bittner on the CyberWire Daily podcast for a sponsored Industry Voices. They break down the fundamentals of Attack Path Management, explain how attackers move around traditional defenses, and share how organizations can visualize identity risk, map attack paths across hybrid environments, and prepare for the future of identity-focused security.
From Access to Attack Paths: How Attackers Exploit Industry.
Over the past decade, the security community has experienced a profound shift. Where once the primary objective was keeping attackers out via hardening the perimeter, patching servers, and locking down firewalls, the new reality forced the community to adopt a different mindset: assume breach. We began operating under the premise that attackers would find a way in.
Whether through phishing, malware, or misconfiguration, compromise was inevitable. The question became “How do we reduce the impact of the inevitable breach?” instead of “How do we keep them out?”
You can add new features, just secure the old stuff first.
Guests Will Schroeder and Lee Christensen from SpecterOps join Dave Bittner on the Research Saturday podcast to break down vulnerabilities in Microsoft’s Active Directory Certificate Services. They explain how AD CS misconfigurations can enable credential theft, domain escalation, and long-term persistence, and why this poses significant risk for organizations that rely on Active Directory.
Attack Paths and new abuse primitives in Azure.
Andy Robbins from SpecterOps joins Dave Bittner on the CyberWire Daily podcast to explore how identity attack paths in Microsoft Azure are emerging as a major new security frontier. He explains how attackers can abuse Azure’s interconnected IAM systems and shares guidance for protecting cloud identity environments before adversaries gain an advantage.
