The Business of Security

#31 - Miguel El Lakkis, CISO - Transitioning CISO Responsibilities

Business-Of-Security Season 1 Episode 31

In this episode, we feature our guest Miguel El Lakkis. Miguel recently transitioned from News Corp to Cantor Fitzgerald and in this process he describes the method commonly used by CISO's to properly transition a security program to a successor. 

We discuss the various aspects of a security program that may change over time and how to address constants to avoid duplication of efforts. The CISO responsibilities should be managed like a relay race not a marathon to make for a smoother transition now and into the future.

Malcolm offers up another approach where the focus is on talent management and always identifying a successor for each role within the security program.

I guarantee you will learn something new in this episode!
