Defense in Depth

Do Startups Need a CISO?

On this week's Defense in Depth, guest co-host Jimmy Sanders, head of cybersecurity for Netflix DVD, and I welcome guest Bryan Zimmer, head of security for Humu. Here are a few of the highlights of our discussion:

• Should a company get a CISO right away, or wait until the security program matures?

• If they get a CISO should they go for "on-prem" or on-demand?

• Or.... should they just go and seek CISO-level advice from the security community?

Overheard on Defense in Depth 

“What I can’t do anything about are the people that will get an email and it says, ‘Please enter your user name and password so I can do blahdy-blah” and they do it repetitively. They just trust so much that they can’t imagine that somebody would be malicious.” 

Steve Zalewski, CISO, Levi Strauss

Overheard on CISO/Security Vendor Relationship Podcast 

“Where I’ve made mistakes in the past have been around communication. Not communicating enough, not communicating to the right people, not communicating at the right time. And that’s where I also see the biggest failures.”
