Modern Cybersecurity Leadership

The SecureWorld Sessions

In this episode, we are learning about modern cybersecurity leadership. We hear from Yaron Levi, CISO of Blue Cross and Blue Shield of Kansas City.

Levi shares about what security professionals need to do now to lead. And he helps us consider the following questions: Why is information security mainly reactive instead of proactive? Why do most organizations view security as a technology problem instead of a business risk problem? How come so many organizations lack a clear security strategy? And why do security leaders fall back on "silver bullet" solutions? There are reasons for all of these things, and as Levi explains, there is a better path for modern cybersecurity leaders to take.
