A Living Security podcast New episodes every other Tuesday

Security, Sold

The podcast about the part of cybersecurity leadership nobody teaches you.

Having the right technology is only half the battle. Security leaders still have to win over the room, secure investment, align teams with competing priorities, and turn risk into a story the business actually understands. Every episode is one candid conversation with a leader who has done it.

Candid conversations with CISOs
About the show

Real leadership fights, told by the people who lived through them.

Each episode features a candid conversation with a CISO or senior security executive about a real leadership fight they've lived through: getting consensus before there was proof, making the case a CFO would fund, changing the way the board understood risk, or becoming a business partner the organization brings in early.

Across human risk, AI adoption, identity, resilience, and whatever comes next, Security, Sold gets into what actually moved the organization from knowing there was a problem to doing something about it.

That work rarely shows up in a framework — so we asked the people doing it to walk through it out loud: the room they had to win, the number they had to defend, and the moment the organization finally moved.
