Our primary goal was to talk about the strained yet much needed relationship between security practitioners and vendors. With the help of our guest Dan Walsh, CISO, VillageMD and plenty of contributors we look back and ask ourselves, “What’s changed and has anything improved?” If you're interested in hearing the full story of how CISO Series started, listen to this episode of Defense in Depth with Mike Johnson and Allan Alford where we walk through the origins of what has become a rather sizable media network. Thanks to our podcast sponsor, Sonatype With security concerns around software supply chains ushered to center stage in recent months, organizations around the world are turning to Sonatype as trusted advisors. The company’s Nexus platform offers the only full-spectrum control of the cloud-native software development lifecycle including third-party open source code, first-party source code, infrastructure as code, and containerized code. In this episode: What listeners get out of the show & what has changed in the industry How communication has changed among CISOs in three years Is there more compassion for vendors now? How is the vendor landscape changing?
