Is there still a network or has it slipped away from us entirely? What about efforts for localization because people do not trust the cloud, its providers or its reliability (ala Twitter vs. the Fediverse?). Do you still need actual hardware firewalls? What about VPNs? How long will these devices still be around as everyone goes to the cloud and SDWAN technologies? And what about identity? If you can nail identity, doesn't that set you up to be a cloud-first organization? Join us for a discussion with Sinan and the security weekly hosts as we tackle these questions!

A deep-rooted cyber security culture is crucial, and it goes as far back as the hiring process… 10 years ago, a typical hiring process consisted of working your way through a checklist, hiring individuals based solely on a CV. Today, the ‘Simon Sinek’ culture is gaining more prevalence, with employers realizing that hiring the right person, rather than the CV, can have immeasurable benefits for business. Ryan will talk about why this is particularly true within the cyber security sphere, and why business leaders should follow this particular ‘Simon Sinek’ strategy to build a successful security operation, and secure business, starting directly with the human’s that run it. At Stripe OLT, Ryan’s Security Operations team has been built upon diverse collective experiences, from military personnel and laborer’s to teachers and university graduates. Through focusing on direct experiences and personal encounters, this presentation will place emphasis on the importance of a CIA Triad hiring structure and demonstrate how fostering a culture of internal trust is integral in defending against cyber-threats and protecting all businesses. You will walk away from this session knowing why it is important to employ the right individual rather than the CV, and how adopting this approach can drastically improve how a business responds to and manages security threats, company wide.
