United HealthGroup and the Backlash of MFA not-Everywhere

Welcome to episode #16 of the webcast. A semi-weekly livestream, video feed and podcast from Cybersecurity Growth. A show for aspiring and existing cybersecurity leaders. Co-hosted by Shawn Valle, Managing Director and CISO of Cybersecurity Growth, and Garrett Gross, Hacker and Security Product Leader.

In this sixteenth cast/stream, Shawn & Garrett return, where they discuss the real-world implications of not deploying multi-factor authentication everywhere….not just on your Microsoft, Okta and Google accounts…..but everywhere, like remote desktop tools, and enterprise apps. UnitedHealthcare got owed in the worst way in mid-2024, leading to a $22,000,000 ransom payout, and nearly $1 billion cost to the company overall.
