Description

We’re thrilled to have a top-notch, Hall of Fame CSO as our first cybersecurity executive to join us on the podcast. Deneen DeFiore, VP & CISO at United Airlines, has figured out how to provide clarity in a sea of complexity while managing the multiple business priorities of her mission-critical role.

Deneen sat down with Dan Roberts to unpack her leadership journey and philosophy and discuss how she balances the need to secure the business with the need to enable business agility and innovation.

Tune in as we explore:

• How great cyber leaders balance the nuances of collaboration, business operations, and risk tolerance while enabling agility and innovation
• The rise of generative AI and the risks it brings
• Why CISOs need to be expert communicators and storytellers
• The urgency to build a pipeline of cyber leaders who possess both technical and management skills
• The role of self-care for leaders, particularly when pressure and burnout are high
