In this week's episode Dr. Crane talks to Yiannis Pavlosoglou about Resilient Systems.

From supply chain shortages to natural disruptions from changing weather patterns, it seems everything today needs to operate while under some type of duress or attack. But what do CISOs need to know to create resilient systems? And what can we learn from other CISOs who've already gone down this path? 

NIST defines cyber resiliency as the ability to anticipate, withstand, recover from, and adapt to adverse conditions, stresses, attacks, or compromises on systems that use or are enabled by cyber resources. That's a mouthful, but what does it actually mean to have to build a resilient cyber program to drive the change management necessary to build that type of program, to put in place the governance processes and procedures necessary.

To discuss this and more, who better to talk with cyber resiliency and governance than Yiannis Pavlosoglou. Currently, the Founder and CEO at Kiberna, and most recently, the CISO for UBS in the UK.
