From SHIFT by Commvault New York, I sat with Christopher Mierzwa on culture, clarity, and execution!!!!
What you will get
• Real takeaways from his panel
• Why people, mindset, and culture decide security outcomes
• Practical advice for leaders, CISOs, and CIOs
Highlights
• Culture beats tools when pressure hits. If teams do not trust each other, runbooks stall.
• Mindset sets the tone. Treat incidents as system problems, not hero moments.
• Practice builds confidence. Short drills with clear ownership move every metric that matters.
Advice from Chris
• Start with people. Define roles, practice handoffs, review the tape after every drill.
• Build muscle memory. Run small, frequent exercises across IT, SecOps, and the business.
• Keep the board close. Explain risk in plain language and track progress like product work.
My take
Security is a team sport. The best programs invest in culture first, then controls.
