Our guest is Adeel Saeed, veteran cybersecurity expert, technologist, and former CISO at State Street, previously having worked for organizations including the London Stock Exchange and the American Stock Exchange.

Our conversation centers on Adeel’s mantra of planning for resilience and eventuality amid a growing range of global threats — in the cyber realm and beyond. He shares his experience after 9/11, how it’s informed his approach to preparing for the worst, and how sometimes, luck plays a part in disaster recovery. We’ll get his views on threat intelligence, and learn why he thinks now is a great time to join the cybersecurity industry.
