Summary:

Brandon Potter Chief Technology Officer of ProCircular, Inc.

Brandon Potter joins me to discuss the different ways he’s seeing MFA bypassed as part of his companies work. Attackers are using old and new techniques to discover creative ways to bypass MFA. This is a result of more companies getting onboard with MFA. Unfortunately, that means attackers are going to start to find more ways to bypass MFA. A lot of what Brandon is seeing is coming down to misconfiguration with how MFA is implemented and attackers are starting to use browser in the middle to hijack sessions. Finally, we go over how AI is going to impact MFA.

Episode Highlights:

  • ShowMeCon one of the few conferences in the Midwest to attend

  • Bypassing MFA

  • Misconfigurations in MFA

  • Browser-in-the-middle
