Our CISO, John Vatianou, had the pleasure of sharing his domain knowledge on a panel this week at the CAMPIT Data Breaches: Defense and Response conference in Chicago. Key Takeaways: ?? Tons of organizations struggle to integrate a security-first mindset. But, executive buy-in, varied communication styles and games, and one-on-one meetings can help. ?? Data is a big deal.?Not just collecting it but viewing it in interesting ways.?CAASM (Cyber Asset Attack Surface Management) is a modern suite of software that aims to allow for interesting views. ?? It's very important to practice BC/DR and Incident Response.
