Why most CISOs never become CEOs — identity risk, deception and the cyber VC playbook
Most security programmes don’t fail because the technology isn’t good enough, they fail because leaders overlook identity risk, lack adversarial thinking, and fail to elevate security from a technical function to a true business enabler.

In this conversation, Andreas Andreu — 4× Award-Winning CISO, COO at Constella Intelligence, product inventor, federal law-enforcement technologist and venture advisor — reveals how elite CISOs evolve into strategic business leaders, capable of influencing boards, shaping market innovation, and building resilient...
