Book | Navigating The CyberSecurity Career Path | Redefining Security With Helen Patton
Many paths can bring you to a specific place — no single one of them is the absolute best. One can be faster, another easier, another more pleasing to the eye, sunnier, darker; it is up to you to decide. What you do need to know is what the options are to make the decision that is right for you. Maybe you’ll even change your mind a bit while on the way.Of course, we are not talking about vacationing and exploring here — we are talking about cybersecurity. What is the right path?One piece of good advice is to ask people that have been there before you; network with them. Ask those that have experienced the different ways and may share their experience with you. Then you can decide where to start.But it is not just about the way to the destination. What do you do when you reach what you thought was your forever destination and you want to change it up a bit, or even, one day, be done with it and move up? Left? Right? Down?Join our chat with Helen Patton, and let’s decide where we can go today — and how we could get there.____________________________GuestHelen PattonOn LinkedIn | https://www.linkedin.com/in/helenpatton/On Twitter | https://twitter.com/CisoHelen____________________________ResourcesBook | Navigating The CyberSecurity Career Path: https://www.amazon.com/Navigating-Cybersecurity-Career-Path-Insider/dp/1119833426/More About Helen Patton: https://www.cisohelen.com/____________________________This Episode’s SponsorsImperva: https://itspm.ag/imperva277117988HITRUST: https://itspm.ag/itsphitweb____________________________To see and hear more Redefining Security content on ITSPmagazine, visit:https://www.itspmagazine.com/redefining-securityAre you interested in sponsoring an ITSPmagazine Channel?👉 https://www.itspmagazine.com/podcast-series-sponsorships Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Book | Transformative | Being Innovative Is No Longer Enough. To Win, You Need To Be Transformative. | Redefining Technology With William Kilmer
Companies are putting more resources than ever into producing innovative solutions, yet nearly every executive expresses some level of dissatisfaction with their company's innovation performance. That's because while innovation is still critical, it's no longer enough.Join us as we talk to a technological thought leader and investor, William Kilmer. Together, we explore why organizations need to step back and build a strategy that not only will produce great products, but that can transform the market.What allows a company to transform is to understand societal and cultural changes that are or are about to take place. If they can foster their teams to develop a strategy beyond being first to the market or leader in the industry but to reach, serve, and create loyalty uniquely and innovatively to customers in that market segment.All of this will likely require that the organization re-tool itself for innovation. This doesn't magically happen; teams don't just start producing something innovative. Instead, the individuals and the teams themselves become innovative. This is transformation.“Transformative companies aren’t first movers who invent new products; they’re game-changers whose category-creating solutions deliver new and better customer outcomes, altering industry structure, and radically changing and reframing existing markets.”About The Book"I wrote Transformative as a framework that will help companies build the momentum and strategy to become a game-changing organization. Behind it is the principle that companies that accept the rules of the market are condemned to live by them and limit their ability to compete to a narrow set of product features and performance. Those that open themselves to a broader view of how to innovate to win have many more options for success."______________________________GuestWilliam KilmerOn Linkedin | https://www.linkedin.com/in/wkilmer/On Twitter | https://twitter.com/wkilmer______________________________ResourcesBook | Transformative: https://www.williamkilmer.com/transformative.html______________________________This Episode’s SponsorsBlueLava ✨ https://itspm.ag/blue-lava-w2qsDevo ✨ https://itspm.ag/itspdvwebAre you interested in sponsoring an ITSPmagazine Channel?👉 https://www.itspmagazine.com/podcast-series-sponsorships______________________________To see and hear more Redefining Technology stories on ITSPmagazine, visit:🎙✨ https://www.itspmagazine.com/redefining-technology Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Fun With Flags! Get Hands-On Cyber Experience While Making Friends At CTFs | A Conversation With Akshay Rohatgi | Your Everyday Cyber With Limor Kessem And Diana Kelley
Cybersecurity is so hot companies can’t hire fast enough. What’s the blocker? Experience. But how can recent grads and those in school get it? CTF expert Akshay Rohatgi explains how to get involved.One of the most common questions we get is: how can I get experience if I can’t get that first job? Even entry-level cyber roles often require 1-3 years of experience. Early stage cyber experts can practice and hone their skills by participating in bug bounty programs, open-source projects, and internships. Another great way to get experience and build your network are Capture the Flag (or CTF) competitions.Conversation highlights:What a capture the flag contest isThe difference between Jeopardy v.
