Our guest for this episode has a unique and totally awesome background who has a wealth of entrepreneurial knowledge and experience. It’s an absolute pleasure to introduce you to Dr. Eric Cole. My introduction here would do little justice, so here it is right from the source - a snippet from his website secure-anchor.com:

“World Renowned Cybersecurity Expert with more than 30 years of network security experience, Dr. Eric Cole is a distinguished cybersecurity expert and keynote speaker who helps organizations curtail the risk of cyber threats. Many of the foundational principles of this course and training in cybersecurity were developed by Dr. Cole. He has worked with a variety of clients ranging from Fortune 50 companies, to top international banks, to the CIA, for which he was a professional hacker.

While he started his career on the offense, he is now fully dedicated to understanding the adversary so he can provide cost effective solutions that actually work. As a pioneer in the area of cybersecurity he has been inducted into the Infosec hall of Fame, awarded the Cyber Wingman Award from the US Air Force, received multiple accommodations from the CIA and was part of the commission on cybersecurity for President Obama. He has been the featured speaker at many security events and also has been interviewed by several chief media outlets such as CNN, CBS News, FOX New and 60 Minutes.”

To say Dr. Cole has an impressive resume would be an understatement. As such, he brings an amazing amount of value to us on this podcast that I’m super excited to share with you guys.

Throughout this episode we talk a lot about Dr. Cole’s entrepreneurial journey and the fundamentals of entrepreneurship that apply to all companies, both large and small. We talk about failing your way to success, how exactly he builds his companies and his teams to run them, and what he likes to target in markets specifically to become an industry leader in that given market.
