Heavy Networking 522: How CIOs Prioritize Security – Cisco’s CIO Perspectives 2020 Survey (Sponsored)

Welcome to Heavy Networking. Cisco Systems is our sponsor today, and we’re going to talk about the projects you might see coming down your IT pipeline. How do we know? Can we see into the future? Well, of course we can (stare deeply into the optic and see the future…no wait…don’t do that).
In this case we look at hard data from a survey of global CIOs, undertaken by Cisco, called CIO Perspectives 2020. We’ll see what that tells us about the probable priorities permeating project planning at your place of productivity impacted by this pesky pandemic.
We are joined by Jo Peterson, VP of Cloud & Security for Clarify360, who has partnered with Cisco to bring awareness to challenges facing today’s CIO. The CIO Perspectives 2020 survey gathers insights from 1,300 CIOs across 13 countries. Jo is going to give us a preview of some key survey insights.
