On this episode of Life of a CISO, host Dr. Eric Cole reviews the state of IT today.

Remote access is not just the future of tech, it’s the present.

Remote clients, including BYOD, are becoming the norm, and “thin clients” are about to break out and become the new normal for business computers.

A common mistake that CISOs continue to make as they guide their companies through this transition is to still try to be the hero and become the tactical guy, when the job of the CISO is not to get into the weeds but to set the strategy and coordinate with the IT team, who will execute the strategy.
