Cyber leaders: Stop being your own worst career enemy. Here’s how.
<p>Technically proficient people often face challenges when looking for (or being elevated to) leadership roles.</p><p><br></p><p>In the cyber realm, this can become even murkier. We have hackers, who often view rules as guideposts (or even challenges, for that matter); incident responders and threat intelligence officers who tend to have great regard for rules and a well-developed (if not regimented) approach to unraveling mysteries; and product engineers who are astute at design and technical issue resolution.</p><p><br></p><p>The net is this: Cyber brainiacs are really good at solving problems. And less good at inspiring (or even allowing) others to solve them.</p><p><br></p><p>In this episode, host Mitch Mayne talks with <a href="https://www.linkedin.com/in/brianfdonovan1" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Brian Donovan</a>, author of "<a href="https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07BNYYKLH?ref_=cm_sw_r_cp_ud_dp_FN6C68FSSVM77D0SS0RW" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">Leadership Is Changing the Game - The Transition from Technical Expert to Leader</a>." They explore some of the critical components of cyber leadership—including Donovan’s perspective that the trick isn’t to develop an entirely new skill set—or <a href="https://quiz.tryinteract.com/#/610dbd0f96add90017a757c8/q/1" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">superpower</a>, as he puts it—but to hone your existing superpower and learn how to influence and inspire.</p><p><br></p><p>If you’ve ever wondered how to get out of your own way and transition into cyber leadership, this may be the episode for you.</p><p><br></p><p>Take a listen—and venture Into the Breach.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Things to listen for:</strong></p><ul><li>[00:05 - 01:20] Introduction</li><li>[03:05 - 05:34] Mitchs' journey to leadership in the cyber world</li><li>[06:07 - 07:42] Challenges technically smart people might run into when stepping into a leadership role</li><li>[08:24 - 12:43] Turning your strengths into superpowers in leadership</li><li>[18:09 - 20:50] Imposter syndrome within cyber leadership</li><li>[29:02 - 31:10] What Brian learned from his best manager</li><li>[32:20 - 34:49] Advice to be a great leader in cyber</li></ul>

The Quantum Quandary: How researchers are bridging the supercomputer security concerns
<p>Quantum computing relies on quantum physics for computational power and computes much faster than classical computers. It’s predicted to provide major breakthroughs across society, science and business. At the same time, it poses a risk to key cryptographic algorithms we depend upon for the safety of our digital world. Meaning, it has the potential to render existing communications as insecure as if they weren’t encoded at all.</p><p><br></p><p>In this episode, host Mitch Mayne talks with one of the scientists working on quantum-safe encryption algorithms. Dr. Walid Rjaibi has spent considerable time experimenting with these algorithms and creating prototypes for transitioning current software to quantum-safe standards. </p><p><br></p><p>They talk in-depth about the security risk quantum poses, how researchers are addressing that risk, how policy can (or should) shift to make standardization a reality, and what organizations might struggle with as they shift toward quantum—and how some of those struggles might be addressed.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Things to listen for:</strong></p><ul><li>[00:05 - 01:34] Introduction</li><li>[03:55 - 06:05] An overview of quantum computing</li><li>[06:45 - 11:30] Cyber risks associated with quantum</li><li>[15:03 - 18:42] Algorithms that are quantum-safe</li><li>[19:09 - 21:54] Encryption algorithms, RSA deep dive</li><li>[25:18 - 26:15] Effective policy regulations</li><li>[26:42 - 29:30] Where to begin when learning about quantum</li></ul>

Threat sharing evolution: How groups offer less risk and better intelligence to members
<p>It’s been eight years since the Cybersecurity Information Sharing Act was signed into law, and today we have a thriving network of public/private threat sharing groups—like the Joint Cyber Defense Counsel (JCDC) and National Artificial Intelligence and Cybersecurity ISAO (NAIC/ISAO), offering platforms where member organizations can both share threat information and gain access to the larger collection.</p><p><br></p><p>Yet, perception challenges still exist for threat sharing groups. These include both liability and confidentiality concerns, with some organizations wondering if information shared in a group could be traced back to—and used against—the organization that shared the data in the first place.</p><p><br></p><p>In this episode, host Mitch Mayne talks with Michael Thiessmeier, Co-founder and Executive Director of the NAIC/ISAO, about the history of threat sharing and how the “public good” has benefitted. They also explore the perceived hurdles to entering threat sharing groups and explore whether or not those are legitimate concerns.</p><p><br></p><p><strong>Things to listen for:</strong></p><ul><li>[00:05 - 01:41] Introduction</li><li>[03:23 - 05:54] Notable wins as a result of groups sharing intelligence</li><li>[06:19 - 07:23] What information to consider sharing in an information-sharing group</li><li>[11:00 - 14:03] Has trust been restored that the government does the right thing in terms of privacy and surveillance?</li><li>[20:09 - 21:23] Michaels information products</li><li>[22:15 - 23:20] Why threat sharing is important</li></ul>
