You’re a CISO, vCISO, or MSSP rolling into a company that has yet to launch a cybersecurity department. How do you communicate about cyber with the IT department? They’re not completely new to cyber. What’s the approach to engagement that helps, but doesn’t insult? How do you offer practical cybersecurity advice?

Check out this post for the discussions that are the basis of our conversation on this week’s episode co-hosted by me, David Spark (@dspark), the producer of CISO Series, and Geoff Belknap (@geoffbelknap), CISO, LinkedIn. Our sponsored guest is sponsored guest Scott McCrady (@scottsman3), CEO, SolCyber.
