Zero trust vs. castle and the moat

What does zero trust have to do with electric cars?

For this episode, Robby is joined by Tony Fergusson CISO – EMEA at Zscaler. Tony has more than 25 years of experience in IT networking and security in Manufacturing, Information Technology and Financial Services, and even more importantly, he loves talking about zero trust – and has done so for more than a decade.

Tony chats with Robby about his article “What IT can learn from Tesla about disrupting the status quo”, and why he believes the zero trust security model represents "an elegantly simple" path forward. They also talk about what the biggest obstacles to the zero trust model are, and why he thinks some people and companies are scared of the zero trust concept.

Security of things

“IoT security today is like what IT security was in the early 90s”.

This is how our returning guest introduces this episode’s topic; IoT security, and how it affects organisations and companies.

For the third time, Robby is joined by Brian Contos, serial security entrepreneur and now Chief Security Officer at Phosphorus Cybersecurity, a company providing IoT and OT defense solutions for enterprise customers.

Brian explains the meaning behind his not so uplifting statement above, and shares some of the most common IoT security issues they observe among their customers. He also discusses whether certain IoT devices pose a larger threat for organisations than others do, and why it’s so difficult for many organisations to create an inventory of their IoT devices.

Security leadership essentials for managers

What knowledge base should a CISO have? And what is the best approach to shaping the next generation of security leaders?

Our guest today is better equipped than most to answer these questions. Frank Kim, former CISO of and currently a Fellow and Curriculum Director at SANS Institute, joins Robby to discuss leadership essentials for security managers.

Frank shares how SANS and their classes approach teaching strategic leadership in security, and how this can help CISOs both navigate the politics in the boardroom and craft a business plan that makes sense for their entire organisation.

They also discuss to whom security ultimately report to, and how to lead, motivate and inspire security teams to get their work done.
