We Want to Hire Honest People Who Think Like Criminals

Mike Johnson and I welcome guest Deneen DiFiore, CISO, United Airlines, to discuss:

  • Does becoming a business-minded security person take time?

  • What does a qualified, entry level candidate have to do to get noticed?

  • Without clear ROI, how does a CISO justify their budget?

  • What game taught you the most about thinking like a hacker?

Overheard on Defense in Depth 

“News media has done a really good job of bringing the fear front and center regardless of the reason. And so that’s why I say ‘Are you secure?’ is a great question because it’s really opening the door for me to take control of the conversation.” - Steve Zalewski, co-host, Defense in Depth
