In this episode of Unspoken Security, AJ Nash is joined by Lisa Ackerman, the Deputy Chief Information Security Officer for GSK (formerly known as GlaxoSmithKline, a British multinational pharmaceutical and biotechnology company.  Lisa and AJ talk about the value of building Intelligence-driven security programs, particularly the vital aspect of impacting decision-making. They also both shared the complicated - perhaps unusual? - ways that career Intelligence professionals think and communicate about threats, risks, and preparedness.Perhaps most interestingly, Lisa shares how she not only took her skills from the Intelligence Community (IC) into the private sector to build threat intelligence programs based on the IC’s best practices, but has become one of the very few Intelligence professionals to become a leader in the CISO career path.Having transitioned from being a provider of Intelligence to being more of the consumer (on the CISO side), Lisa talked about how her perspective has changed, how it hasn’t, and who she thinks CISOs trust the most these days…the “CISO Whisperer” is.Finally, as always, the show wraps up with Lisa revealing something that had, to this point, gone "unspoken”...and Lisa delivered some great stories and insights about how having the guts to leap into challenging situations can be a key to growing a career.Send us a textSupport the show
