Cloud Security Podcast Navigating NIST CSF 2.0: Guide to Frameworks and Governance
In this episode, we sat down with Lukasz Gogolkiewicz, an Australia-based Cybersecurity Leader and former pentester, to explore his journey from offensive security into cybersecurity leadership. Lukasz, also a speaker coach at BlackHat USA, brings valuable insights into what it takes to shift from being technical to managing compliance, governance, and broader security programs in industries like retail and advertising.
Throughout the conversation, we dive into the specific challenges of transitioning from a purely cloud-based tech company to a bricks-and-mortar retail operation, highlighting how the threat models differ dramatically between these environments. Lukasz shares his unique perspective on cybersecurity frameworks like NIST CSF 2.0, essential for building resilient programs, and offers practical advice for selecting the right framework based on your organization's needs.
