Episode Notes
In this episode of Redefining CyberSecurity, host Sean Martin engages in a conversation with guest Sue Bergamo about the dynamics and responsibilities of cybersecurity leadership. They discuss, compare, and contrast the roles of the CISO, CIO, and CTO in an organization and the handoff of tasks and responsibilities between them.
Sue emphasizes the need for a holistic approach to security, with the CISO responsible for protecting the inner workings of the company and its data. They explore the challenges of hiring in the cybersecurity field and the impact of the current economic climate. Sue cautions against a siloed approach to security and advocates for a well-rounded security program. They discuss the importance of consistency and structure in change control and release management processes to prevent issues and vulnerabilities. They also emphasize the role of the CISO as a trusted advisor, communicator, and educator within the organization.
They touch on the maturity level of cybersecurity programs and the need for organizations to embrace business-level conversations to reduce risk and exposure. Sue addresses the current state of the industry, highlighting the challenges faced by CISOs and security teams. She suggests that a calm and collected approach is a sign of a well-functioning security program. This, however, could leave the rest of the organization questioning their investment in cybersecurity. To this end, they discuss the importance of implementing controls and processes to create structure, improve security posture, and demonstrate this to the business leaders and key stakeholders.
Overall, the episode provides valuable insights into the evolving role of the CISO and the importance of a holistic approach to cybersecurity. The conversation is informative, thoughtful, and thought-provoking, without sensationalizing the content or adopting a journalistic tone.
Listeners can expect to gain insights into the complex dynamics of cybersecurity leadership and the challenges faced by organizations in the current landscape. Have a listen!
