Hello everyone! Thanks for joining us!
CISO Series have been long-term supporters of r/cybersecurity and allow us to connect you with industry professionals who can provide a wide range of contextual experience. For this AMA, the editors at CISO Series assembled a handful of CISOs who broke into the industry without a technical background. They are here to answer any relevant questions you have. Our participants:
- Patty Ryan ( u/CyberMT1024 ), CISO, QuidelOrtho - Background in economics, sports TV, MBA, and then IT.
- Lee Parrish ( u/leeCISO ), Vice President & CISO, Newell Brands - Background with Marines where he did lots of coordination and operations, which was technical, but not IT or cyber. Also worked as a correctional officer,
- Davi Ottenheimer ( u/–d-a-v-i– ), VP Trust and Digital Ethics, Inrupt Background in history, philosophy and political science(ethics of intervention).
