In the latest episode, Nico Freitag talks to Vicky Sorge, CISO at Kaufland e-commerce. Together, they explore the evolving CISO role—from a purely technical expert to a leadership figure and communicator within the company.

Vicky Sorge shares her unique career path from a non-technical background to becoming a CISO, highlighting the critical skills needed today: communication, leadership, building strong networks, and handling stressful situations effectively.

Special focus is given to the challenges of the modern CISO role:

How do you keep up with the constantly evolving threat landscape?

How do you bring technical teams, management, and business units together?

And why are appreciation and psychological safety so important for team motivation?

Another major highlight of the episode is the discussion around burnout risks within the CISO community and a strong call for companies to improve mental health support for their security leaders.

Whether you're an industry newcomer, career changer, or seasoned security professional—this episode offers valuable insights for anyone looking to actively shape the future of cybersecurity.
