Building a security community

The CISO role can be stressful at times, so it’s important to have the right support network around you. The cyber security industry is still relatively small and some great communities have emerged around professional certification bodies and special interest groups.

Wherever you are in the world, it’s likely there will be a security meetup around you. And if there isn’t you should definitely start one! These social gatherings don’t have to be face-to-face – online and fully remote options also exist.

Over the years I’ve been fortunate to be a member of some outstanding security leadership communities. It’s very rewarding to be able to share your experience and also learn from your peers. Feel free to reach out if you’d like an introduction.
