Join Satbir and Darren as they interview Nemi George, a seasoned Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) of Pacific Dental Services, as they cover a complex tapestry of modern cybersecurity concerns.

The discussion covers diverse topics including the evolving threat landscape, the rise of sophisticated cyber attacks, evolving insider threats, risk management, supply chain complexity, and the value of preventive action. 

As the conversation unfolds, Nemi highlights the importance of a robust security culture within an organization, articulating that while technology is a critical line of defense, the human element remains the most unpredictable.  Initiatives to enhance security awareness, continual education programs, and behavioral analytics to detect insider threats are discussed as key strategies.

A portion of the conversation is dedicated to the impact of regulatory compliance with Nemi discussing the challenges in navigating complex international laws such as the GDPR, CCPA, and industry/state-specific regulations.  Amidst the discussion, Nemi emphasizes the importance of privacy by design and the role of the CISO in ensuring that compliance enhances, rather than hinders, business operations.

As the conversation nears its conclusion, Nemi speaks candidly about the future, including the advent of artificial intelligence as a technology that both enhances security measures while also inevitability being used by adversaries as well.  

This important podcast ultimately touches on the intersection of business acumen, technical expertise, and strategic thinking required for modern CISOs to thrive and protect their organizations in an age where cybersecurity is a key pillar of business continuity.

We hope you enjoy!

Cardiac Cowboys

Cardiac Cowboys

The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
