In this, the very first LIVE episode, Allan Alford interviews guests Derly Gutierrez, Head of Information Security at 1010Data, Patrick Benoit, BISO at CBRE, and Mustapha Kebbeh, CISO at Brinks, as they discuss the use of security frameworks in general and over time.

Regarding framework compliance, do we choose one or do we choose many? Do we embrace them fully or partially? What changes our approach to frameworks over time?
