We’re taking the ‘security as a blocker’ stereotype head-on, promoting a shared language and mutual understanding. We’ll turn those ‘compromising positions’ into ‘compromising solutions’, helping security pros and tech teams collaborate more effectively for a smoother, safer digital journey. Every week we will be joined by Developers, User Researchers, Designers, Product Owners, Data Scientists, Cloud Specialists, Scrum Masters, C-Suite Execs, AI/MI boffins, and many, many more non-security positions! This is a podcast aim to get you thinking about security without boring you to death! Join our two hosts, Lianne Potter, Cyber Anthropologist and Head of Security Operations at a major retailer and Jeff Watkins, CTO at XDesign for this informal, frank, and at times anarchic look at what people really think about cybersecurity in organisations and what cybersecurity people should ACTUALLY be doing.
