4) Summary: Understanding Cyber Attackers

Name: Ericka Chickowski Dark Reading

Category: Business and Finance

Email: query-ayy4@helpareporter.net

Media Outlet: Dark Reading

Deadline: 7:00 PM EST - 3 July

Query:

To prepare an effective defense of enterprise data, security
leaders need to truly understand the attackers and methods
they're up against. I'm writing a piece detailing the ins and
outs of using threat intelligence effectively, evaluating
defenses through penetration testing and red/blue/purple
teaming, as well as how to take knowledge of attackers to the
next level through advanced threat hunting.

Requirements:

I'm seeking security practitioners and consultants to offer up
some practical advice on getting to know attackers through these
methods. I'd like them to answer one or more of the following:

* Why do you think it is important to understand attacker
motivations, as well as current tactics, techniques and
procedures (TTP)?

* How can an organization get the most out of penetration
testing to understand the most exploitable flaws in their
environment?

* What do red team exercises add to the mix beyond what
periodic penetration tests offer? Why should organizations
consider fielding an in-house red team?

* Why is threat intelligence so important and what are the
biggest mistakes organizations use when harnessing threat feeds?

* When are threat hunting practices appropriate for
enterprises and what are the prerequisites to be ready to
effectively hunt? What are some dos/don'ts of threat hunting?

5) Summary: Going to HR about being sexually harassed at work

Name: Elizabeth Yuko Lifehacker

Category: Business and Finance

Email: query-ayyo@helpareporter.net

Media Outlet: Lifehacker

Deadline: 12:00 PM EST - 1 July

Query:

This article is looking into whether a person who is being
sexually harassed at work (or by a colleague, since many of us
aren't "at work" right now) should report it to HR. Though this
may seem like a no-brainer, many people have done so without and
not only found it unhelpful, but also faced negative
repercussions at work.

Requirements:

I'm looking to hear from HR reps/managers who can honestly
discuss the following (and not just provide the company handbook
answers that we all know already). Given the sensitive subject
matter, you can use a pseudonym in the article.

1) If you're being sexually harassed at work, should you go to
HR? 2) Is it true that HR reps are really "there to protect the
company and nothing more"? 3) Will going to HR about sexual
harassment put your career in jeopardy? 4) If you do decide to
report sexual harassment, what evidence should you bring to HR?

Also, I'm looking to hear from people who have gone through the
process of reporting sexual harassment at work: What happened?
Was it worth it? (Using pseudonyms for this is fine.)

It's never easy to start a new job, but doing so remotely during
a pandemic has another set of challenges (especially if you're
coming on to lead a team.)

Requirements:

Looking to hear from HR experts and psychologists with tips for
people who are starting new jobs now, during the pandemic.
Specifically: 1) How can someone prepare for starting a new job
right now -- especially one where you'll be leading a team
remotely? 2) What are some good ways to put yourself in the
right mindset to succeed?

Unable to conduct phone interviews for this one, so please get
in touch with written responses. Thanks!

Deadline: 11:00 AM EST - 1 July

Query:

Hey HARO family,

Trust you are all doing well? I am currently working on a new
piece for Cointelegraph regarding blockchain interoperability
and was looking to get some expert insights in regard to the
following Q's:

(i) SIA, a European payment services business and U.K.-based
technology company Quant Network successfully tested
cross-blockchain interoperability between different protocols.
In your opinion, is this the way moving forward for payment
providers/financial institutions, especially as we move into an
era of increasing decentralization?

(ii) Could you please comment on the notion that by making use
of interoperable blockchains, established finance institutions
could not only make cross border transactions cheaper and faster
but also win back some of their lost trust?

(iii) By making use of cross-blockchain solutions, do you
believe payment providers will be able to substantially cut down
a lot of the peripheral fees (such as processing charges) that
are usually levied these days by big-name players like PayPal?

(iv) Please feel free to add any more details that you may see
fit in relation to this subject.

As is the norm, for your time, we will be more than happy to add
you name, company details in the piece. However, i am not
permitted to add any backlinks in the piece.

Looking forward to hearing from y'all

Regards

Requirements:

Comments should ideally come from blockchainn/crypto experts who
have a good understanding of cross-chain systems and how they
could be potentially used within the domain of mainstream
finance.
