Not every entrepreneur begins their career in the world of espionage, but that's where Matt Holland, the co-founder and CEO of Field Effect, got his start. Since then, he's taken his frustration with the state of cybersecurity and turned it into a successful business. In this episode of The Digging Deep Podcast, Matt tells the story of how he left his government job and went on to start two businesses. You'll hear a lot of great lessons about both entrepreneurship and cybersecurity, and we talk a lot about the role of a CEO, and how to build the best team. Matt also provides some tips on how to keep ourselves more secure online, including the one easy thing he says we can all do to get an extra layer of security. This episode is a conversation about trying to fix not just a problem, but a whole industry. It’s about being okay with failure, but trying not to fail big. It’s about quietly listening and learning from those around you, and creating an atmosphere where everybody gets to be the hero. And it’s about how the best bet you can make is a bet on yourself.
