Synopsis
This episode with Jeff was awesome,
recorded at the OWASP LASCON security conference, I got a chance to
sit down with Jeff in person and talk shop. I always learn
something, but in this podcast Jeff dispensed his usual wisdom in
buckets, I could barely write this stuff down fast enough. We
covered the raising of the "information security table
stakes", and what the last 15 years have
meant to the information security profession in terms of
evolution. We went into a discussion on how information
security can avoid being a cost center and feeling the
traditional expansion and contraction with workload and economic
times, and I learned what the phrase "it was a business
decision" really means. In case you need
one more compelling reason, Jeff brought up yet another gem when he
discussed how the business pushes the boulder off the cliff, then
expects information security to change its trajectory mid-fall ...
you're not going to want to miss this. I had a wonderful time
catching up with Mr. Reich, and you'll enjoy this podcast, that's a
promise.
