1. How Good CISOs Build Bad Security Programs – Juliet Okafor – ESW Vault
Check out this interview from the ESW Vault, hand picked by main host Adrian Sanabria! This segment was originally published on September 29, 2021.
No Man is an Island. Neither can a security program exist without interconnections and strong relationships to the rest of the business. Yet, over and over again I meet Security Leaders that thrive on designing security fiefdoms with large moats, and one bridge that they roll down only when they intend to roll out a new technology, initiative or need budget authority. There is no amount of authority or power that can provided to a CISO that makes he or she immunized against the need for communication, collaboration and diplomacy with peers, users and Senior Executives.
