Hi and welcome to Sabir reasons malicious life B four years ago I was wondering how much

stuff is there to talk about in a podcast about cyber security.

I mean I knew there were some great stories to be told.

I wrote a book about the history of cyber security back in 2012, so I did quite a lot of research back then.

But how many great stories are there?

Enough for 50 episodes?

150?

Well, here we are four years later in episode number 145, I think,

and we're not even close to running out of ideas.

But if there ever was a chance that will run out of stories in the foreseeable future,

along came Log for Shell and made sure we won't.

Why?

Because as Amityoram, CEO of Tenable, said, Log for Shell is by far the single biggest most critical vulnerability ever.

It seems that there are so many applications and so many organizations affected by Log for Shell that we're probably going to hear that name

being thrown around quite a bit in the next few years. So in today's B-side

Log for Shell what it is and what can you do about it?

Nate Nelson, a senior producer, talks to Jonathan Strim Amit, CEO and co-founder of Cyberreason, our sponsor, about the vulnerability and about

the interesting quote-unquote vaccine that Cyberreason released for it.

A rather unusual piece of software that

interestingly uses the same vulnerability that the bad guys are exploiting for

their nefarious purposes to close the breach and make your server safe again, at least

temporarily, with no downtime whatsoever.
