Episode Notes
In this episode of On Location with Sean and Marco, hosts Sean Martin and Marco Ciappelli explore the intricacies of cybersecurity budget management and expenditure prioritization at the Infosecurity Europe event in London. The conversation kicks off with Sean and Marco discussing the challenges of balancing a minimalist approach with the need for robust security programs. The discussion swiftly transitions into budgeting strategies where the hosts are joined by guests Emma Philpott, CEO of IASME, and Don Gibson, Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) of Kinley. Emma provides insights into her role at IASME, highlighting their work on the Cyber Essentials program aimed at ensuring basic technical security controls. Don shares his experiences at Kinley, dealing with audiovisual technologies and their importance in security. The dialogue explores the difficulties organizations face, particularly around budget constraints, legacy technology, and the need for consistent investment in security measures.
A significant portion of the episode is dedicated to the challenges faced by various-sized companies, from micro-businesses to large corporations, in implementing effective cybersecurity measures. Emma stresses the importance of making security accessible to smaller entities and the efforts IASME is making to provide free guidance and support. Don emphasizes the importance of clear communication and leadership at the board level to properly budget for cybersecurity, balance between technology, and staff investment, and avoid the pitfalls of over-reliance on either.
The conversation also touches on the role of community and support networks within the cybersecurity realm. Both Don and Emma highlight the value of having trusted groups where professionals can share experiences, seek advice, and offer mental health support. They underscore how such communities foster a culture of openness and mutual assistance, which is crucial in an industry often grappling with high-pressure incidents and rapid technological changes.
The episode wraps up with a discussion on the dynamics of cybersecurity as a competitive advantage and the evolving nature of security leadership. Emma and Don explain how achieving certifications like Cyber Essentials can provide business benefits beyond compliance, such as improved insurance outcomes and differentiation in the marketplace. Don challenges CISOs to think creatively about how cybersecurity can become a revenue-generating aspect of the business, reinforcing the need for innovative and dynamic leadership in the field.
Tune in to learn more about budgeting, community support, and forward-thinking leadership in cybersecurity from the vibrant InfoSecurity Europe event.
