Quod Orbis’ Post

In my recent article for Cyber Defense Magazine, I emphasise the growing recognition that digital security is not just a cost but a long-term investment in business value. To fully unlock this potential, it's crucial for CFOs and CIOs to align. A strong IT strategy, led by the CIO, should integrate both cyber security and revenue-driving digital platforms. When CFOs and CIOs work together, businesses can invest in technology upfront to reduce long-term financial risks and drive efficiency through automation. This alignment is key to both safeguarding and growing the business. #CIO #CFO #Cybersecurity #Leadership #DigitalTransformation #Automation

Quod Orbis CEO, Martin Greenfield, recently wrote an article for Cyber Defense Magazine explaining why CFOs and CIOs must break down silos and work together.

When I speak to people about "Zero Trust", I often get the "deflector shields" that David mentions as well. This isn't because the issue isn't important - it's top of mind for a very good reason. It's just that there is so much fluff around the topic it's hard to get to accurate and actionable information. This discussion can help to remedy that dynamic. Registration link is included below.

Zero Trust: Fact or Fiction? Hype, hyperbole, or an actionable security paradigm. Would you believe that it's all of the above? It started as fairly specific guidelines for improving #cybersecurity beyond the traditional and dominant #DefenseInDepth paradigm. But, as it started to gain traction, it was decried by many security architects as being unattainable, while others complained that it was just a repackaging of the existing security tenets and added nothing new. To further confuse the issue, it was used by various security vendors to promote their specific platform which led many security professionals believe that it's just marketing hype. Join David Spark, Rob Allen, & Antony Symonds at noon CDT on Friday, Oct 18, for a discussion of the facts & fiction of #ZeroTrust as well as some games and really bad ideas on how to implement Zero Trust.
