Todd Fitzgerald will be moving on from the CISO STORIES podcast after 185+ episodes, which was initiated almost 4 years ago following the publication of the #1 Best-Selling CISO COMPASS book, which has guided 1000’s of emerging, current, experienced, and new CISOs and their teams in their journey to protect our organizations’ and nation’s information assets through a structured, business-oriented roadmap. Over 75 CISO and industry leader contributors to the book had their ‘grey boxes’ come to life in their own voice through this podcast. Since then, many esteemed CISOs have been on the invitation-only podcast to share practical, pragmatic experiences on timely, relevant issues. We learn from each other, and it is an honor to interview such top-notch CISOs. Join us as Todd shares his view of the evolution of the CISO role and where it is going. Todd will also share some of the memorable moments and messages from producing the podcast. This segment is sponsored by Semperis.

Are You Vulnerable to Deep Fakes? Controlling the Risk - Paul Neff - CSP #188
Rapid advancement in the sophistication and availability of "deepfake" technology enabled by generative AI - the ability to generate convincing multimedia and interactive representations indistinguishable from the real thing - presents new and growing challenges for CISOs seeking to combat fraud, intrusion, disinformation, and other adverse consequences of social engineering. CISOs will need to maintain enhanced understanding of deepfake technology to craft and manage effective controls - yet some of the most effective controls may be surprisingly low-cost and low-tech. This podcast will examine the state of practice for deepfake generation and distribution and discuss effective countermeasures and controls for common threat typologies.

Focus, Breadth, or Depth: Reduce Vulnerabilities with Less $ - Julian Mihai - CSP #187
Managing vulnerabilities is a large, complex problem that can't be completely fixed. And still, many cybersecurity organizations continue with a traditional approach that attempts to address all vulnerabilities, spreading staff too thin and increasing exploitation windows. With a small set of vulnerabilities being the cause of most of the breaching, taking a focused approach can have a significant impact on reducing the risk of successful cyber attacks.
