The CyberWire Daily Briefing, 2.28.20

Special Section

RSAC 2020

RSAC 2020 wraps up today, and we'll close our coverage of the event with this afternoon's podcast, still coming to you from San Francisco.

It seemed to our people on the floor that the companies who attended this year's conference found the traffic a bit lighter than in some previous years, but that they found the conversations they had with visitors to their booths noticeably more productive. There were, one exhibitor remarked, "fewer swag baggers" (and we're proud to say that our decision to leave certain members of our editorial staff back in Baltimore contributed to this positive winnowing), but there were many people who proved to be quality leads. Thus, in general, apparently a satisfying conference.

Thanks to all who visited us on Broadcast Alley. Stay in touch, and see the links below for additional coverage of the conference's events.

Summary

By the CyberWire staff

The US state of South Carolina holds its presidential primary tomorrow. The voting there, unlike the very troubled Democratic caucus in Iowa, will be run by state election officials, not the political parties themselves.

The Washington Post summarizes security measures in place for tomorrow’s voting. State and county officials have been training to manage election cyber risks for two years. Paper ballots are available as a backup should voting machine problems arise. Both the state election commission and the state’s Democratic Party (only the Democrats will be holding a primary) are monitoring social media for disinformation. The state Democrats also have lawyers standing by to work against disinformation or voter suppression. And, finally, the party has a “room full of millenials” who’ll presumably take care of counter-messaging against misinformation.

Transparency is tough enough without even attempting fact-checking or counter-messaging. Facebook, the New York Times reports, is having trouble keeping up with presidential candidate Michael Bloomberg’s meme troupe.

ThreatFabric research indicates that an evolved version of the Cerberus Android banking Trojan can now steal Google two-factor authentication codes.

The Australian Red Cross is being flooded with bot-driven fraudulent requests for brushfire aid, SBS News reports.

Reuters says that the US Federal Communications Commission (FCC) is preparing to fine four major mobile carriers--AT&T, Verizon, Sprint, and T-Mobile US--a total of $200 million for improperly disclosing realtime consumer location data.

US Senator Rand Paul (Republican of Kentucky) tells the Wall Street Journal his proposal to rein in FISA has White House support.

Bring your own context.

When they hear pitches from startups, investors have a few questions in mind.

"So I think a pitch to an investor is somewhat similar to a pitch to a potential customer, right? You have to convince them that this is an interesting solution. It's worth your time to dig into. And there's some nuances for investors particularly I'm going to talk in a little bit. But the general framework that I advise people start with is, what is the problem? Why is the problem important? Why are we uniquely qualified to solve this problem? What is the shape of the solution that we bring to you? And then the fifth one for investors is, how big is the market? "

—Dr. Chenxi Wang, founder and general partner of Rain Capital, on the CyberWire Daily Podcast, 2.25.20.
