At the surface, being a CISO in Higher Education is very similar to any industry vertical but the opportunities, challenges, and impacts are significantly more complex. Many consider HE to be behind in security practices. While it is true that HE doesn't buy a lot of security tools, we are on the leading edge of focusing on mitigating security risks at the level the institution truly needs. Also, our community requires support for accessibility, gender-identity, and general identity access management that is far above what most technologies can handle. All this leads to a CISO needing to be creative, flexible, and thoughtful to best lead their programs. Visit https://securityweekly.com/csp for all the latest episodes!
