As our growing dependence on online identities extends to nearly every aspect of our lives, the risk of malicious theft and accidental breaches, companies are being held increasingly responsible to protect the security of the personal and company data they are entrusted with. But how are companies, and their Chief Information Security Officers (CISOs), responding to this expectation?

Interview with Jamie Norton, Chief Information Security Officer with the Australian Taxation Office. Jamie discusses the day-to-day role of the CISO, governance frameworks and reporting structure, with the CISO reporting to the CTO.

First of the year catch up with Shamane Tan, organiser of the Cyber Risk Meetup events in Australia and Singapore. We discuss the recent CISO Town Hall Twitter event and the key takeways from CISOs around the world, upcoming event with the Australian Information Security Association on February 20 in Sydney discussing Prudential Standard CPS 234 and Open Group FAIR (now a Sold Out event) and Cyber Risk Meetups scheduled in Sydney, Melbourne, Perth, Brisbane and Singapore from February through to October.

In addition to Episode 26, Narelle Devine, Chief Information Security Officer for the Department of Human Services discusses the difficulty in going out to market to find talent in cyber security, and how it takes ‘all sorts’ with a broad experience to build a strong cyber security team. The interview also discuss her role as a CISO and the importance of developing a peer-to-peer network to generate solutions and collaborate on ideas.
