In this CISO Confidential episode with Saket Modi, Tim Brown – former CISO of SolarWinds, opens up about the SUNBURST attack that compromised 18,000 customers worldwide and reshaped the cybersecurity industry overnight. Tim walks through the first 48 hours of the breach, the anatomy of the nation-state attack that sat undetected in SolarWinds’ build system for nearly a year, and the brutal personal toll that followed – including the SEC’s unprecedented decision to charge him personally, and the heart attack he suffered in the middle of it all. The conversation goes deep on what every CISO should know about contracts, liability, and risk quantification in a post-SolarWinds world.
