Cyber engineering is a broad and often misunderstood field, covering everything from cloud architecture to compliance. But one thing is clear: someone needs to take responsibility for the security of your business’s digital infrastructure.

In this episode, host Jara Rowe is joined by Michael Magyar, vCISO at Trava Security, to explore the intersection of cybersecurity, compliance, and engineering. Michael shares what smart architecture looks like in practice, where organizations often fall short, and how emerging trends like AI impact cyber engineering.

Key takeaways:

• How smart cyber engineering impacts security and operations
• The influence of AI on cyber engineering tasks
• When to seek outside help for technical implementation
