Cyber Security & Cloud Podcast CSCP S02E02 - The Adventure of a Lost CISO with Thom Langford
In this episode, we will talk with Thom a great experienced Ciso and now leading the adventure of a Lost CISO or CISO in recovery more. We had a good laugh of the inconsistencies of Infosec, the CISSP (pronounce it the way you want it) and the recent debate (is it a master?).
The podcast is in collaboration with the cloud security alliance UK Chapter and NSC42 Ltd (for more episode visit www.nsc42.co.uk/cscp)

Guest Bio:
Thom founded (TL)2 Security and works for himself, although he regularly complains about his boss and work culture. As Chief Information Security Officer of Publicis Groupe, Thom was responsible for all aspects of information security compliance, risk compliance and compliance-compliance, as well as managing the Groupe Information Security compliance Programme. Additionally, the role was responsible for business continuity compliance across the Groupe’s global operations, and as a result, Thom buys three of everything.
Having successfully built security and IT programmes from the ground up, before tearing them down, Thom brings an often opinionated and forward-thinking view of security risk compliance, both in assessments and management, but is able to do so with humour (debatable) and pragmatism (mostly). An international public speaker and award-winning security blogger, Thom contributes to whichever industry blogs and publications will feature him.
Thom is also the sole founder of Host Unknown, a loose collective of three infosec luminaries combined into an unremarkable trio to make security education and infotainment films. Thom can be found online at both thomlangford.com and @thomlangford on Twitter.
