Cybersecurity 101 | What Is Cybersecurity and How it Works

In this episode of Life of a CISO, I answer a question I am asked all the time: What is the definition of cybersecurity? At its most basic level, cybersecurity means understanding, managing and mitigating risks of critical data being disclosed, altered, or denied access to. You can have a major breach or a minor breach in the same way you can have a major or minor car accident. The difference in both is impact. If you have a breach in security, but the adversary cannot access any critical data, that is a very minor breach if it is detected and fixed quickly. In order to detect breaches, you must find a way to make the invisible visible. Detecting and fixing breaches does cost money and can mean downtime, so when addressing security issues, a CISO must think like an executive, not a security engineer. That means drawing a line between how much money you spend on security and how much you will risk and possibly lose if you don’t. 🔑 [FREE MASTERCLASS] Discover How You Can Advance Your Career Through Cybersecurity https://safe.secure-anchor.com/nl-web... 0:44 What is the role of a CISO? 1:10 Cybercrisisbook.com 2:15 How to communicate like a CISO 3:30 What is cybersecurity? 5:00 The gym story 6:04 Expert witness work 6:43 Cybersecurity means protecting an organization from digital risk 7:02 Understanding, managing and mitigating risks of critical data being disclosed, altered, or denied access to 7:55 The difference between a minor and major breach 9:53 If no data is affected, there is no impact 11:55 The goal is to minimize damage by doing timely detection 12:48 The “I love you” virus” was visible 14:48 How do you make the invisible visible? 16:55 A Crypto-free zone makes the invisible visible 18:28 A CISO analyzes historical and comparative data 21:29 What to present to the executives 22:23 Always draw a line to the ROI 25:55 Don’t have a lot of slides in your presentation 27:14 Balancing, managing, mitigating risk 28:30 Before you spend time or money on security, ask 3 questions 30:44 Ask the question beyond the value & benefits: What is the risk? 30:27 How to ask the right questions 34:10 Balance technical and strategic About Dr Eric Cole Eric Cole, PhD, is an industry-recognized security expert with over 20 years of hands-on experience in consulting, training, and public speaking.
