Why are security professionals so darn afraid of automation? We continue to hold on to the idea that people have to be integral in the real-time decision process to protect ourselves from the technology we deploy to protect us.

Check out this post for the basis for our conversation on this week’s episode which features me, David Spark (@dspark), producer of CISO Series, and Steve Zalewski, CISO, Levi Strauss, with our guest Edward Frye (@edwardfrye), CISO, Aryaka Networks and president of Silicon Valley chapter of ISSA.
