⏳ What happens when time goeswrong?

Time synchronizationis an overlooked but essential part of cybersecurity. A few microseconds ofdrift can lead to failed transactions, inaccurate forensic logs, or evensecurity breaches.

In this episode of ThreatTalks, host Rob Maas (Field CTO, ON2IT) and guest Jan van Boesschoten(Innovation Manager, AMS-IX) discuss:

·      How does time impact cybersecurity, and whathappens when it drifts?

·      Why is NTP no longer sufficient for high-speeddigital transactions?

·      How does Precision Time Protocol (PTP) providemicrosecond accuracy (and why does that matter)?

·      Could time manipulation be an attack vector,and how do organizations mitigate this risk?

From financialtransactions to forensic log analysis, knowing exactly when an eventoccurs can make or break an organization’s security posture.
