Hosted by two guys named George on either side of the divide, this is a cybersecurity podcast that tackles the relationship between vendors and their customers. George Kamide is on the security vendor side, and George Al-Koura is a CISO on the customer side. Vendors gotta sell, and companies need tooling to protect their data. Tune in to hear real conversations from opposing sides of the pitch about cybersecurity marketing, sales, and go to market strategies. We go after these topics and bad practices with bare knuckles, then it’s down to brass tacks to look for solutions. Tune in to hear from guests from either side, including CISOs, SMEs, sales leaders, frontline account managers, and more!

Building Teams, the Quantum Future, Outsourcing, and So Much More!
Vivek Khindria, longtime CISO, joins the show and he brought the heat. We talk building security teams, quantum computing timelines, and why your board doesn't want to hear about firewall rules.
George K and George A talk to Vivek about:
* Why betting on business people and teaching them security > hiring tech nerds who can't talk to humans
* Why enterprises must start the conversation around crypto agility now with the quantum computing future ahead
* Your board wants to hear about "resilience," not your latest pen test results
* How to balance outsourcing vs maintaining in house talent
Vivek's been around the block and back, knows his stuff, and isn't afraid to call out nonsense. Plus he talks about why most security leaders are burning out and what to actually do about it.
This is the kind of conversation that makes you better at your job, not just better at using buzzwords.
