#771 Cyber Bay 2025 - Deral Heiland: Coins, Code & Cyber: From Visual History to IoT Security š”ļøš
Meet Rapid7ās Deral Heilandāa self-described āvisual historianā who balances high-tech research with hands-on artifacts from Roman coins to Civil War relics šŖš·. We explore how tactile history sharpens perspective, why he resets daily in a 19th-century apothecary he built on his property āš, and the real-world state of cybersecurity in 2025. Deral breaks down AIās double-edgeāamplifying attackers while supercharging defendersāand why small businesses should lean on managed services and a 24/7 SOC instead of drowning in tools š§°ā”ļøš°ļø. He previews his Cyber Bay talk on IoT end-of-life risks and pushes leaders to treat connected devices as business enablementānot a boogeyman. We also dig into sustainable work habits after burning out on 16-hour days, health turnarounds, and making weekends sacred for family and antique-hunting šØāš©āš§šļø. If you care about AI, IoT, and practical security (without the hype), this conversation delivers field-tested wisdom and a few great stories.
Top 3 Highlights
- AI in security: threat accelerator and research force-multiplier š¤āļø.
- SMB reality: consider managed services/SOC over DIY tool sprawl š¢šš°ļø.
