Hey everyone, I'm Drex and this is the 2 Minute Drill, where I cover three hot security stories twice a week, all part of the cyber and risk community here at the 229 Project and this week health. Today's 2 Minute Drill is brought to you by Intraprise Health, a health catalyst company. With Blueprint, you can pull risk data from all your tools into a single unified risk management platform, and then you can prioritize and assign work and track exceptions and drive accountability all in one place.

Come get a demo at HEMS booth:

They've literally built software that allows any Joe Schmoe off the street to create a fake site that looks like a real company site to collect usernames and passwords and credit cards, all from unsuspecting victims. And Joe Schmoe in this scenario needs little or no technical skill, thus the as a service component.

They've just announced a new, even easier version of the software that will be released shortly, appropriately called the Darkula Suite. It lifts even more technical requirements from the cyber thug who buys it. The phishing as a service software includes a friendly user admin dashboard, campaign performance measurement tools, and automated credit card theft and digital wallet loading.

The DIY phishing kit also allows its customers to insert the URL for a brand they want to impersonate and the software will generate all the clone pages, the images, all the required templates for the attack. With this new software, you should expect phishing volumes to increase. If you've ever bought eyeglasses from Warby Parker, you know they specialize in making it really easy for you to buy those new glasses right from home.

customers back in:

And the final story today, this one just announced one of CrowdStrike's longest serving executives, Chief Security Officer Sean Henry, plans to retire from the company by the end of March, according to a filing with the SEC. He will remain as Executive Advisor to the CEO. Prior to CrowdStrike, Henry was Executive Assistant Director at the FBI.

where he led investigations into cyber criminal activities. Personally, I'll say I've been lucky to spend some time with Sean over the past few years. He's the kind of leader who gets the very best from his people. And while he's retiring from CrowdStrike, I hope we get to see him back in the field soon.

Sean, I can't wait to hear what's next. That story, a bunch of other stories, are healthcare's fastest growing news sites, thisweekhealth. com slash news. Today's two minute drill was brought to you by Intraprise Health, a health catalyst company. Do you need to get all your leaders on the same page when prioritizing risk?

Stay a little paranoid, and I'll see you around campus.
