In this episode of Bulletproof Cyber, Dr. Eric Cole takes a different approach by questioning why cybersecurity isn’t getting the attention it deserves, despite being one of the greatest threats to individuals, businesses, and governments. He highlights recent cyber incidents, such as the Deep Seek attack, and discusses the lack of transparency in reporting cyber threats. Dr. Cole also examines security concerns in government operations, emphasizing how repeated mistakes in handling sensitive data can have serious consequences. Beyond technology, he shifts focus to the critical role of communication in cybersecurity, explaining that technical expertise alone isn’t enough—true cybersecurity leaders must learn how to effectively convey their message to executives, colleagues, and decision-makers. He shares insights on the importance of active listening, setting clear communication objectives, and ensuring that messages are both delivered and understood. To truly be bulletproof, cybersecurity professionals must not only master the technical aspects but also develop strong communication and leadership skills to drive change and protect what matters most.
