CISO Series Podcast
Gartner Creates Another Category for Everyone to Ignore
Andy Ellis, operating partner, YL Ventures and I welcome guest RJ Friedman, CISO, Buchanan Technologies to discuss:
Do we need another industry-produced acronym?
How can a vendor better demonstrate they can become a partner?
With the list of security “minimum requirements” constantly growing, do you believe more and more organizations are falling below the security poverty line?
And we ask how best to reduce the amount of false positives.

Biggest mistake I ever made in security...
"The biggest mistake I’ve ever made in cyber security was assuming that everyone else cared as much as I did. It was a quick mistake and an easy lesson learned." --RJ Friedman, CISO, Buchanan Technologies

"Can we do better, oh my God, yes. We can definitely do better. Are we doing better than we were five years ago? Phenomenally better. I will go back to the venerable Verizon data breach investigation report and just point out if you look at this year’s report, which was technically the 2021 report… It just came out somewhat recently. You’ll see a couple of things that really to me scream we’re doing better. One, there is a summary of how long does it take us now to discover a breach. And it used to be months and months. And famously when we first started talking about advanced persistent threat, you would expect to see these things in your organization for six months, a year, more than that. And now it’s days or less. It really is." Geoff Belknap, CISO, LinkedIn
