157 Promoting International Understanding and Trust

Our guest is Mihoko Matsubara, chief cybersecurity strategist at Japanese telecommunications company NTT Corporation in Tokyo, where she’s responsible for cybersecurity thought leadership. Previously, Mihoko worked at the Japanese Ministry of Defense and was VP and public sector chief security officer for Asia-Pacific at Palo Alto Networks. Our conversation explores the different approaches to cybersecurity seen in Japan, and the impact those cultural differences have on that nation’s security. We’ll also learn more about Mihoko’s efforts to bridge that gap of understanding, and to help build trust and safety around the world.
