We learn, we implement, we patch, and we repeat, all in an effort to stay ahead of the attacks. It’s exhausting and sometimes can leave you feeling defeated. Know that you’re not alone, and being a defender means you never feel like you get to go on offense. Be honest, you know offense sounds like more fun and it truly is.
The Sensible CISO site is my hope to provide some helpful resources back to the community that has been helped me learn and grow over the past two decades. I hope as this site evolves and develops, there will something for Cybersecurity professionals of all skill levels. If you’ve ever posted a suggestion or fix to a forum, uploaded a helpful script, or recorded a video and dropped it on YouTube, then thank you for being part of my development.
A CISO is someone who is overseeing a team, and whether regardless of the team size, we are tasked with encouraging and leading the charge. We won’t always have the answers, but years of experience have taught us, those answers are out there and we’ll turn over every leaf trying to find them. Good luck out there, and keep fighting the good fight!
