What happens when one security leader is responsible for protecting the nation’s largest healthcare payer — and the stakes include 130 million Americans?

In this episode of Wake Up, global data resilience expert Caroline Wong sits down with Robert Wood, former CISO of the Centers for Medicare & Medicaid Services (CMS), to talk about leading security at scale, managing complex contractor networks, and balancing human pressure with national responsibility.

From SolarWinds to MOVEit, Robert shares what it’s really like inside the federal cybersecurity war room including the politics, the sleepless nights, and the lessons that keep leaders grounded.
