Claire chats with former Toyota Australia CIO Ellis Brover, as he shares his thoughts on incident response through the lens of the CIO. They discuss how security maturity can dictate reporting lines, how organisations should seek to test the reality of systems being shut down because of an incident, and really how moral support goes a long way during a cyber incident.
Ellis Brover is a recognised IT leader with a track record over three decades of building and leading world-class IT organisations, driving transformational change, and delivering tangible business value. His experience spans a range of roles and industries, across a range of organisational scales from startups to multi-nationals.
Most recently Ellis was CIO of Toyota Australia, where he led a transformation of the IT function from an internally-focussed service provider to a strategic enabler, driver of innovation, and role model for outstanding customer service. Ellis grew and led a team of 300+ that delivered an industry-leading digital business capability as well as a rapid transformation in cyber security maturity, whilst dramatically improving efficiency and contributing to business growth.
Ellis is now pursuing advisory and consulting opportunities, aiming to add value to the business success of organisations and the development of their people through his extensive experience.
