This week in cybersecurity from the editors at Cybercrime Magazine
Sausalito, Calif. – Feb. 25, 2026“CISO Confidential” is a new series on the Cybercrime Magazine Podcast, brought to our listeners by Doppel, a cybersecurity company on a mission to protect the world from social engineering attacks every day.
The inaugural episode features Bobby Ford, Chief Strategy & Experience Officer at Doppel, and former SVP and Global Chief Security Officer at Fortune 500 company HPE. Tim Brown, CISO at Solarwinds, joined the discussion with our host, Paul John Spaulding.
On the second episode, Kendra Cooley, Senior Director of Information Security and IT was on with Adam Keown, CISO at Fortune 500 company Eastman.
The first two episodes covered what organizations can do to protect themselves in light of new threats such as deepfakes and artificial intelligence (AI), and what tailored, environment-specific next generation security awareness training looks like.
