Today, I’m joined by Xavi Bertomeu, Product Security Director at Scopely. With over a decade of experience in cybersecurity, Xavi has transitioned from CISO to product security to have a more direct impact. 

Beyond his work in cybersecurity, Xavi is an active entrepreneur and startup founder, with ventures ranging from security solutions to platforms that transform how kids learn English.

In this episode, we dive into what makes gaming security unique, why it’s crucial to monitor community feedback, and how understanding cheating practices helps address security challenges. 

We also discuss why creativity is essential in security to effectively engage with engineers and reflect Xavi’s personal journey: why many might see his move from CISO to product security as a step "down".
