Alan Paller’s cybersecurity guidance has been solicited by the likes of NASA, the FCC, the Department of Homeland Security, the U.S. Senate, and former presidents. In this session he shares insights on the changing threat landscape and how cybersecurity technology and workforce needs have changed in response to the threat. Key takeaways include a surprisingly effective technique for getting top management to support and grow the security budget that also enables CISOs to stop vendors from driving the cybersecurity agenda. He also provides a preview of how to find less expensive talent and shares his views on why government isn’t the answer to rapid improvement in cybersecurity.
