On this episode of The Cybersecurity Defenders Podcast we speak with Erik Bloch, VP of Security at Illumio, about better tools to combat burnout rate and discuss the reality of AI in security.

Erik Bloch has 30+ years of information and cyber security experience, both as an IC and as a leader of teams. “People first” has always been his approach. He has led entire security and IT functions at smaller companies, and been the CISOs leading big teams at larger orgs.

Erik also spent time on the product side, trying to make better tooling for people like him. With a mix of security, IT and product under his belt, Erik is at a place where connections, making meaningful change and driving impact in peoples lives, mean a lot to him. The smartest person he knows once said "Problems are really opportunities in disguise", and that's something Erik always tries to see.
