"Then there's what I call the day after tomorrow. New ideas, new technologies, new innovations, new challenges, new players, new business models that can really change the nature of the game that you're in. And how much time do you as companies or leaders think about today, tomorrow and the day after tomorrow." In this week's ISF Podcast, Peter Hinssen, serial entrepreneur, best selling author, keynote speaker and Founder of Nexxworks, sits down with ISF Managing Director Steve Durbin to discuss "the day after tomorrow".  Peter and Steve explore how security professionals can look past today’s tasks to prepare for the future, facilitating an innovate culture, the pace of technological transformation, how cognitive diversity could improve the workplace and more. https://www.securityforum.org/videos-podcasts/peter-hinssen-the-day-after-tomorrow-surviving-radical-innovation/

"I think it's about understanding how you combat the remote element, how you provide advice and guidance to people about what they should be doing, how they should be working." The COVID-19 outbreak has turned many regular office goers and commuters into home workers. They have been thrust into an environment that can pose novel risks for both staff and their employers.  In today's Podcast, ISF Managing Director Steve Durbin will be discussing the best practices for working from home, a topic with global relevance as workforces are suddenly adjusting to working with greater independence in greater isolation and hopefully with greater interconnectedness than ever before. https://www.securityforum.org/videos-podcasts/covid-19-top-security-tips-for-working-from-home/

"Reputation is everything. If you lose some money, then that's bad, it's worse if you lose personal data, people's personal data, and then they're subject to cyber attacks. That's really bad. But you can make restitution for that. If you lose your reputation, you've lost everything." In this week's ISF Podcast, James Arroyo OBE, Director of the Ditchley Foundation, sits down with ISF Managing Director Steve Durbin to discuss growing Geo-strategic tensions, recognising reputation as an organisations crown jewels and much more.  https://www.securityforum.org/videos-podcasts/james-arroyo-cyber-2025-this-time-its-personal/

"Threat Horizon is there to try to identify upcoming threats so that we are forewarned and forearmed. And what the ISF has always done with that Threat Horizon is try to pull out issues, yes, at the basic security level, but also then say, what does this actually mean from a business standpoint? And what does a business, an organization need to do in order to avoid some of those threats, mitigate some of those risks?"   In today's ISF Podcast, we're bringing you a conversation with journalist Nicholas Witchell and ISF Managing Director Steve Durbin. In this wide-ranging conversation, Steve will share his insights on the role of cyber in society and its impact on individuals and the future outlook.  https://www.securityforum.org/videos-podcasts/nicholas-witchell-steve-durbin-cyber-in-society/

"It requires persistence of professionalism. A recognising that even if I'm great at this, there are still ways for failure to happen, for it to rear its ugly head. You have to build an ever-increasing base of readiness to deal with things going wrong, readiness for failure." In this week's special ISF Podcast, Colonel Chris Hadfield, decorated astronaut, engineer and pilot, sits down with ISF Managing Director Steve Durbin to discuss his desire to become an astronaut, the need for constant retraining and self-assessment, preparing to fail, achieving goals against the odds, the speed of technology and much more. https://www.securityforum.org/videos-podcasts/colonel-chris-hadfield-an-astronauts-guide-to-managing-risk/

"In today's modern way of doing business, when cyber breaches and information security make or break an organisation, there is an increased need for company structure and better use of technology."  Organisations focus most of their efforts on meeting strategic and financial targets. However, the board and security leaders need to be aware that this is when cybercriminals are most likely strike – leading to reputational damage and disruption to the financial bottom line. When a security breach happens, it is the CISO who shoulders the blame. In this podcast, Steve Durbin, Managing Director of the ISF, discusses how cyberspace is not just the responsibility of one or two individuals – but the whole organisation. When it comes to security best practices, collaboration between security leaders and the board is the key to success. https://www.securityforum.org/videos-podcasts/the-ceo-vs-the-ciso-the-security-breach-blame-game/
