Highlights:
What is one thing you wish you had known before starting your career?
- Effective communication is one of the biggest challenges that I faced. Soft skills are what you need when it comes to driving expectations from your team & translate the technical aspects from the gearheads to business executives.
What resources helped you to learn cybersecurity in your career
- The people were my biggest & best resource when it comes to learning about cybersecurity. I learned from mentors that I had at the early phase of my career and their perspective on cybersecurity & the professional world, in general, was a great resource. The people that are around you can be your best resource when it comes to learning cybersecurity.
What cybersecurity vendors should not be doing?
- Vendors should stop acting like a business & start acting like a partner. They should put themselves into their clients' shoes and think about how can we provide benefits from their technology or service. When you do that, you’re not just a cybersecurity vendor but a trusted advisor who’s nurturing a relationship for a long-term game.
