summary

Live podcast records a practical, unscripted conversation that drops concrete takeaways: start with password manager and two-factor authentication as a baseline, run yearly global “reboot” security campaigns with swag and executive visibility, and measure vendor fit by whether a product augments an internal threat intel team. Panel disputes an oft‑quoted “18 months” CISO tenure, declares a tool tuned to miss true positives worse than noisy false alerts, and rewrites a vendor pitch to open with the customer problem and the specific business outcome. Choose this if you want usable vendor‑selection and culture tactics.
