Addressing the Data Everywhere and No Map Issue - Antonio Taylor - Guardians of the Data - Ep #25

What happens when security leaders stop talking tech and start speaking the language of the business? In this episode, author and VP of IT for Mission Healthcare, Antonio Taylor, reveals why modern security success has less to do with tools and everything to do with building trust, curiosity, and true business partnerships. Antonio brings 25+ years of experience in enterprise IT leadership, data security, and organizational transformation. He’s seen behind the curtain of data sprawl, shadow SaaS, M&A chaos, and the cultural friction that often exists between business units and cybersecurity teams. Antonio shares how security leaders can shift from “the department of no” to trusted business partners by staying curious, building relationships, and speaking the language of the business rather than the language of technology. Takeaways: ~ Become a True Business Partner: Learn how your company makes money and frame security as an accelerator, not a barrier. ~ Build Trust Before You Need It: When business units trust you, they'll involve you in decisions before purchasing tools or implementing solutions. ~ Make Security Part of the Culture: Transform employees into your "biggest firewall" by making them security partners. ~ Offer Alternatives: Instead of blocking tools, find secure alternatives that meet their needs (like suggesting Copilot instead of ChatGPT). ~ Create a "Life Resume": Document all your accomplishments, not just job-related ones, to combat imposter syndrome and recognize your inherent skills. ~ Embrace AI as an Enhancement Tool: Use AI to advance your capabilities, not replace them. ~ Listen for Pain Points: Proactively identify business problems and propose secure solutions before they go rogue. Quote of the Show: “Security, we’re the bad people. We’re the ones who tell you no all the time, and I think that’s a myth that has to be shot down.” - Antonio Taylor Links: LinkedIn:   / antoniodtaylor   Website: https://www.homewithmission.com/ Book: https://a.co/d/127OwCr Ways to Tune In: Transistor: https://guardiansofthedata.show/ Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/show/5gZXInk...
