In this episode, Greg Otto talks with Sonu Shankar, President at Phosphorus, to discuss the unique security challenges facing today’s rapidly expanding Internet of Things landscape, where traditional endpoint protections are ineffective.

Shankar highlights the tactics of groups like Salt Typhoon, who exploit these weak spots to infiltrate and persist within networks. The conversation underscores the pressing need for deeper asset inventory and active discovery in critical environments.
