Solving the Security Paradox – Michael McPherson – BSW #253
Something is seriously wrong with our current approach to cybersecurity––the more we spend, the worse the situation becomes. In an industry plagued by a chronic talent shortage, one thing is clear: simply throwing another tool in the mix isn’t the path to better security. If we’re going to solve the security paradox, we’re going to need a cross-functional, in-depth analysis of the problem and a structured approach to fixing it. Michael McPherson joins Business Security Weekly to share tactical questions that security leaders can ask themselves and their teams in order to build a better overall approach to defense.
