3019: Navigating Cyber Risk: Insights from Barracuda Networks' CIO
Description
In this episode, I talk with Siroui Mushegian, Chief Information Officer at Barracuda Networks, to explore the current state of cybersecurity and its growing importance for businesses. With over 20 years of leadership experience spanning organizations like Ralph Lauren, the NBA, and PBS, Siroui shares her valuable perspective on how companies can navigate the complexities of IT security across various industries.
We dive into Barracuda's CIO report, "Leading Your Business Through Cyber Risk," which reveals concerning statistics: over half of companies struggle to implement consistent security policies, and only 43% are confident in managing cyber risks effectively. Siroui provides insight into the governance challenges that often hinder organizations, including better policy enforcement, securing third-party access, and addressing vulnerabilities in supply chains.
Siroui outlines practical steps businesses can take to better prepare for, respond to, and recover from cyber incidents. From building stronger governance structures to ensuring executive buy-in for security initiatives, she offers actionable strategies to enhance cyber resilience.
