Picture it: Sicily, 1922. I'm reporting to a great CISO who gets an opportunity to lead security for a global law firm. A few minutes later I'm in the hallway with the CIO and accepting the role of interim CISO. Fast forward a few years, I'm in a place that I never expected and doing things I wasn't sure I knew how to do. The purpose of this talk is to share lessons I've learned going from a practitioner to the guy in charge and how practitioners at any level can lead and inspire change within the community.
