In this week's episode of the Future of Cyber Risk podcast, David speaks to Julie Chickillo, VP, Head of Security at Guild Education, a platform where workers can gain the skills and support they need to grow in their careers. They discuss current trends around cyber risk management, including the rising need to integrate more data privacy into security practices. They also talk about how security teams can better understand how risk impacts business decisions, how to weed out "dark patterns" when developing software, and how to support team growth through continuous learning opportunities — including a security book club. Topics discussed: The evolution of Julie's career, from being in legal, security, governance, risk, and compliance for nearly 20 years, to becoming head of security at Guild Education, a career enableist platform. The day-to-day actions of a head of security, including overseeing the privacy and risk groups, looking for new ways to support the team, and keeping up with developments in the industry by talking to founders. What security practitioners get wrong about cyber risk management, and why practitioners shouldn't own the risk themselves. Why Julie likes talking to founders about what they're seeing across the industry, and how you can find them at conferences and trade shows "on the outside." What skills and training are important for a security team, including learning a language like Python, taking free courses, engaging in book clubs, sharing opportunities on Slack, and more. The necessity of being able to translate data and privacy concerns to business leaders, and to be able to talk about the impact to business decisions. What dark patterns are, how they impact privacy and data use, and how to better consider user experience when designing software.
