Check out this post by Gautam ‘Gotham’ Sharma of AccessCyber for the discussion that is the basis of our conversation on this week’s episode, co-hosted by me, David Spark (@dspark), the producer of CISO Series, and Steve Zalewski. Joining us is Krista Arndt, associate CISO, St. Luke’s University Health Network.

In this episode:

• Verify then trust
• Dishonesty on all sides
• A lack of flexibility
• What about integrity?
