Ian Murphy on Cyber, Comedy & Communication

What does comedy have to do with cyber risk? More than you might think. My guest on this episode Ian Murphy specialises in both, using comedy to produce content that makes people more aware of cyber security risks.

Ian is the founder of CyberOff, which in his words “breathes life into cyber security training”. He does that using incredibly compelling content that relies heavily on comedy.

During our discussion, we explore how Ian went from being a semi-professional football player via the British Ministry of Defence and then onto CyberOff. On the way, he provides insights about growing up in Liverpool and some very frank views about what’s wrong with way many organisations approach cyber risk. What Ian has to say is just as relevant to other contexts like ethics and compliance.
