Leadership transitions in security are common. They are also critical moments for any organization. This episode explores how to prepare for CISO changes, why documentation and shared access matter, and how security teams can stay steady through uncertainty. It also highlights the opportunity that comes with fresh perspective and new leadership energy.

Transitions are rarely perfect. But when security is built to function beyond any one individual, change becomes manageable. In some cases, it becomes a chance to reset, refine, and strengthen what is already in place.
