Navigating the Turbulent Waters of Cybersecurity: Nationalism, Economics And AI
Manage episode 365408865 series 3372765
Welcome to the Razorwire podcast. In this episode, I delve into the turbulent waters of cyber security with Razorwire favourite, Oliver Rochford. We'll be discussing a range of topics that are currently shaping the industry, including economic challenges, nationalism and the continuing impact of the pandemic.
We'll also be exploring the use of acronyms, consolidation and rationalisation in the vendor space, and the development and potential dangers of AI. But that's not all! We'll also be taking a closer look at the weaponisation of security, the need for active security and moving target defence, and the potential for mergers and acquisitions in the industry.
So sit back, relax and get ready for some valuable insights into the challenges and opportunities facing the cyber security industry.
"Planning a security project over two years is far too long. It's ludicrous, you've missed the moving target by the time you're finished. What you've done - it’s outdated."
