Special Guest Mark Clancy, one of the most well known Cyber Security professionals in the world, talks about the role of the CISO in every organization and the worldwide scramble for firms to find the talent they need to protect their networks, their data, and their intellectual property. Clancy defines the role of the CISO and discusses the genesis companies go through in hiring their first CISO. Why do companies look to replace existing security leaders? Where should the CISO sit in most organizations? How has the role of the CISO changed over the last few years? How do we define the success of the CISO? Clancy also describes the gaps that are being addressed in the pre-competitive Research and Development space as well as how the Internet of Things is changing the security landscape across the industry.
