How To CISO with Andy Ellis - Leadership Lessons for the Next-Gen Security Executive

In this episode of The Strategy Layer Live, we sit down with one of the most trusted and pragmatic voices in cybersecurity leadership today — Andy Ellis. Andy is the former CSO of Akamai, a CISO Hall of Fame inductee, leadership coach, and the author of How to CISO 1.1 — a sharp, experience-driven guide for navigating the first 91 days and beyond as a security leader. But this conversation isn’t just about onboarding. It’s about enduring. Together, Steve Tout and Andy unpack how the CISO role is evolving — not just in scope, but in identity — and what it takes to lead effectively when frameworks fall short, trust is fractured, and security teams are expected to protect systems they don’t fully control. What we cover in this episode: Andy’s vision behind How to CISO and why version 1.1 matters The Zero Trust paradox and how it undermines human trust when misapplied Why your “first 91 days” might be more telling than your title The difference between control, clarity, and presence in the boardroom What Andy sees coming next — and why the CIO may outlast the CISO Whether you're a first-time CISO or a seasoned operator, this episode will challenge how you think, lead, and speak inside the enterprise. 🎙️ Check out Andy’s work: https://www.howtociso.com 📘 Learn more about Steve's book, The CISO On The Razor’s Edge: https://www.stevetout.com/book
