I had the pleasure of delivering a guest lecture on developing and implementing a cybersecurity strategy to students at the School of Information Systems and Technology Management, UNSW.
A security strategy is a set of decisions about what you will and won’t prioritise, made under real constraints – budget, headcount and a threat landscape that doesn’t wait for your roadmap to catch up.
Strategy starts with the business. If you can’t explain your security priorities in terms of what the organisation is trying to achieve, you won’t get the backing.
With AI, the fundamentals are still important, but the timelines are now compressed.
Thank you UNSW for the invitation, and to the students for the great discussion. This cohort is entering the field at a very interesting moment.
