On this episode of the CNL Podcast, Sedric sits down with Trenton Ridgway to explore what real leadership in cybersecurity looks like.

Trenton shares why true security starts with owning risk, not just managing technology. He talks about the importance of accountability and why collaboration beats blame every time.

When things go wrong, pointing fingers doesn’t fix it, communication does. Trenton also opens up about learning through failure and how every setback is a step forward.

We dive into why curiosity is a leader’s greatest tool and why growth never stops in this field. He reminds us that certifications fade, but your mindset and willingness to learn will take you further.

Trenton discusses how investing in your development through mentors, training, and real-world experiences builds confidence and trust.
