The Reality of Being a CISO

In this Life of a CISO episode, Dr. Eric Cole talks about the importance of being authentic and knowing what you want before pursuing a career as a Chief Information Security Officer (CISO). Many people view becoming a CISO as the ultimate goal, but it's important to recognize that it's a business role and not just a technical position. CISOs need to be able to navigate internal politics and prioritize business growth while also preventing breaches. It's important to be authentic and honest about what you want in your career.
