Description

Guest:

  • Phil Venables, Vice President, Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) @ Google Cloud

Topics

  • Why is our industry suddenly obsessed with resilience? Is this ransomware’s doing?
  • How did the PCAST report come to be?  Can you share the backstory and how it was created?
  • The PCAST report emphasizes the importance of leading indicators for security and resilience. How can organizations effectively shift their focus from lagging indicators to these leading indicators?
  • The report also emphasizes the importance of "Cyber-Physical Modularity" - this sounds mysterious to us, and probably our listeners! What is it and how does this concept contribute to enhancing the resilience of critical infrastructure?
  • The report advocates for regular and rigorous stress testing. How can organizations effectively implement such stress testing to identify vulnerabilities and improve their resilience? 
  • In your opinion, what are the most critical takeaways from our PCAST-related paper for organizations looking to improve their security and resilience posture today?
  • What are some of the challenges organizations might face when implementing the PCAST recommendations, and how can they overcome these challenges? 
  • Do organizations get resilience benefits “for free” by using Google Cloud?
