How did you get into security? In my case, the question could be phrased, "How did security get into you?" I am not an infosec professional in the usual sense, but rather a business manager with infosec responsibility. I manage business and product development and information security, which is a central thread that composes the fabric of our product offerings.

Open, transparent and safe?

Today, the isolationist approach to security – the notion of avoiding risk rather than mitigating it – is a surefire way to squash the opportunities and value being created on the network. To be competitive in today’s marketplace, companies must change their mindset and evolve their security culture.
