Adopting Zero Trust: Empathetic Leadership with Kyndryl’s Kris Lovejoy

For many, cybersecurity is seen as a cost center that reduces risk to the business. This can be oversimplified to something akin to how HR reduces people-related risks but comes with layer on top of layer of complexities ranging from technology to physical buildings and, of course, people. Regardless of organizational size, cybersecurity leadership requires a top-down approach, leaving room for discussion at the board level and aligning it with business goals.

This week on AZT, Neal and I chat with Kris Lovejoy, Kyndryl’s (IBM spinoff) Global Security and Resilience Leader, former CEO of Virginia-based BluVector, and a former IBM CISO prior to being made GM of their security division. Having danced the line between startups and mega-enterprise organizations, there are few others who could so adequately discuss the role of cybersecurity leadership within modern organizations and why having a competent person at the helm is critical to the business (not just to reduce risk). We also play a bit of RSA buzzword bingo.
