Concrete Steps to Create a Security Culture

Presented at BSidesSF 2019, March 4, 2019, 2:50 p.m. (30 minutes)

Who's got time for any of this "culture" business? The security team has more trash fires than they can handle. No one is listening to their warnings! As it turns out, security culture plays a pivotal role in the health of your organization's security. In this talk I'll go over why I invest so heavily in creating a culture of security at my organization, 10–20 concrete examples of things I do that are easily replicable, my overarching strategy for changing culture, and what it means to measure success when talking about something as intangible as culture.
