editor’s note
ello and
H
welcome to the
latest edition of
Intelligent CISO
where we explore
the most recent
developments
within the cybersecurity industry. We
hear from a number of experts who offer
their opinions and best practice advice.
On the cover this month we have Carl
Baron, Chief Information Security
Officer, SIG plc, who tells us why
the leading wholesale distributor of
building materials needed to ramp up its
protection from potential cyberattacks.
SIG plc utilised a KnowBe4 solution
to improve its cybersecurity posture
and maintain its prominent role in the
construction industry.
This month, we take a look at how
to embrace the new identity era with
passwordless identity. An industry
expert from ForgeRock explains why
the username and password have
long been the baseline method for
protecting accounts, but why they’ve
now become a lose-lose for consumers
and businesses alike.
In our ‘Editor’s Question’ feature, we
asked the experts about the latest
cyberthreats that CISOs should be
aware of.
Contributors from Radware, Rubrik and
Barracuda highlighted some of the key
cyberthreats that are raising their heads.
This issue, we consider why business
leaders should be making it a priority to
protect the endpoint, especially as more
and more people are working remotely.
We take a look at how technology
vendors such as Tanium and Qualys
are offering solutions to make endpoint
protection easier and more achievable,
in our feature on page 36.
This month, we ‘Go Phish’ with Paul
Balkwell, VP – International Sales, ZIX,
who tells us how he landed in his career,
and how he likes to relax and unwind
outside the office.
I hope you enjoy the read and if you’d
