Who is Arup?Arup Biswas is a dynamic entrepreneur at the forefront of AI-driven marketing solutions. Recognizing that true innovation lies in customer outcomes, Arup has dedicated his career to making powerful marketing accessible for all. He identified three key audiences—marketing agencies, recruitment firms, and SME owners—who often found traditional radio advertising out of reach due to high costs and lack of expertise. With a passion for breaking down barriers, Arup's work centers on helping these businesses connect with audiences more effectively, using cutting-edge technology to solve longstanding challenges and drive real, measurable success.Key Takeaways* Arup Biswas, founder of Klaxon AI, shared how AI can make radio and podcast advertising accessible, affordable, and targeted—even for small businesses. Breaking down barriers is reshaping who gets to be heard.* Removing technical barriers in media isn't just about cost. Klaxon AI lets anyone create professional audio ads in minutes, not days, changing who gets to participate in the advertising landscape.* Culture shifts when technology puts power in new hands. DIY audio ads, as Arup describes, give small business owners a voice where only big brands used to play. That shapes narratives—and who gets to tell them.* Targeted messaging is more than a marketing tactic. Klaxon AI shows that when we speak directly to our audience, we foster deeper connections and more inclusive cultural conversations.* Audio advertising isn't just for radio. Arup encourages using your audio ad everywhere—on your site, social, emails. Culture today is cross-media, and your voice can travel further than ever before.Don't forget: If you want to connect, ask questions, or get notified about upcoming guests like Arup, subscribe to the Systemise.Me newsletter here.

Five questions over coffee. I have in front of me my coffee mug. I hope Arup has his drink with him, whether or not it's coffee or something else. But I'd love to welcome Arup as well. Arup is the founder of something called Claxon AI which I'm hoping we will learn more about in the next 15, 20 minutes. But from initial introduction I'll say that Klaxon AI is one of those game changing type AI systems that really should be shaking up the podcast advertising, media advertising landscape, enabling us all to produce those really game changing ads cheaper, faster and with more specificity.Stuart Webb [00:01:14]:So Arup, welcome to It's Not Rocket Science five questions over coffee.Arup Biswas [00:01:19]:Thank you, Stuart. I'm delighted to be here.Stuart Webb [00:01:22]:Terrific. Well, you know, let's start with who the who the who. The ideal audience for Klaxon AI is what's the sort of characteristics that anybody who's listening to us at the moment might be thinking? Well, I wonder if this is for me.Arup Biswas [00:01:38]:Yeah, well, there are three key audiences for what we do. And I should say that actually, yes, we are an AI business, of course, but actually it's all about the outcome for the customer. And the outcome for the customer is reaching people effectively in a powerful way. So our core market is marketing agencies are already working with clients, but offering traditional marketing methods, recruitment agencies who may be looking to recruit volume numbers of staff and owners of SMEs. So those business owners who are struggling hard to, to make their business business a success. But I've always thought that radio advertising in particular has been out of their reach because of lack of knowledge or price cost. Those kind of traditional factors have always been the issue. So that's our traditional market, that's our marketplace that we focus on and our solution is all about helping them overcome those issues.Arup Biswas [00:02:31]:And we provided a, created a solution which we think does all that.Stuart Webb [00:02:36]:And let's just sort of understand that. I mean you talked about the fact that it's a solution. So what are the sort of problems that you noticed that you were trying to solve with this? Obviously cost is one, but there must a bunch of other things that you're looking at this solution in AI that will actually help solve.Arup Biswas [00:02:55]:Absolutely. And the biggest, one of the biggest issues other than price, price is always an issue for small business owners is knowledge and technical expertise.Stuart Webb [00:03:03]:Yeah.Arup Biswas [00:03:03]:Particularly when it comes to broadcast advertising, whether it's TV or radio, people think, and traditionally this has been the case. So this is completely justified why people think this way. You need to go to a recording studio, you need a sound engineer, you need a voiceover artist, you need to create a script. And traditionally the cost of creating an audio advert has been thousands and thousands of pounds. Typically a recording studio can be upwards of £300 an hour to just hire the recording studio. So the costs are really high. But also the technical expertise, you know, if you're a business owner running whatever your business is, you know, how much do you actually know about creating a radio advert? You think you might have to outsource that, but it's not typically something you think you can do yourself. So there were high barriers to entry to get into radio advertising and there traditionally always has been high barriers to entry.Arup Biswas [00:03:56]:So when we came up with the concept for doing this, and I should say myself and my co founder, we come from a media background, so we were very experienced in working with small business owners who were looking to promote their businesses in normal market ways, but struggled with things like broadcast advertising. So we came with it from a problem point of view of how do we make it easier for these business owners to get their message out via radio advertising and increasingly podcast advertising. So we know that we know the pain. We, you know, we see the pain every day. And historically the pain's been there, been there. So what we've done is create a system which removes every, every barrier to entry. And I'll, you know, we'll talk a little bit more about what we offer, but essentially one of the services we offer is a self serve advert creation system where anybody can go in and create a professional audio advert with no technical expertise in less than five minutes. So that's what we've tried to do, is remove barriers to entry.Stuart Webb [00:04:55]:So let's, let's just deal into that and I guess we're going to get into some of the sort of the offerings and services that you've got. And I hope that there's going to be a valuable offer, a piece of advice that you'd like to give to the audience. But let me just explore for a moment. I mean, how does this system work? What does the business owner do to, to solve the problem they've got? Having sort of looked at the cost of this and thought this is going to be too expensive for me to be able to sort of put a radio advert, a podcast advert, TV advert, whatever, out this might be a solution to it. What's the steps that they take? What are the different services you Offer.Arup Biswas [00:05:33]:Yeah, well, the first thing to say is when we talk to business owners is to forget everything they know about creating radio adverts. Because most of us, or most people come to this thinking expensive techniques, technically complex, all those kind of things. As I said, we've created a system that removes all that. So we've got two services. One is a self serve system I mentioned where anybody can go in, they can just write a few words of text. We use AI to create a script for the, for the company owner or the marketing executive. So you just need to put in a few words about your business. You know, for example, you know, ABC is a marketing company that works in Chester.Arup Biswas [00:06:11]:Our AI will automatically create a 30 second advert script using that text, or you can put in the exact text that you want to be read out. What happens is our system automatically creates the script, automatically adds an AI voice, and these are high quality AI voices. We use the best AI voices in the industry. You would never know it's an AI voice. And we add background music to it as well and we patch it up as a, as a 30 second advert. Now that process is super quick. Anybody can go into the site now, they could do it now and they'll see that they'll have an advert there to listen to literally within less than a minute, you know, no more than five minutes if they want to translate it, because we offer a translation facility as well. So that's fine, they could do that, then they could download the advert, do whatever they want with it.Arup Biswas [00:06:56]:But what we also know is quite often somebody will produce something like an audio file and they won't know what to do with it. It's great having an advert on your desktop or what the hell do you do with it. So what we do is we don't see ourselves so much as a tech company, we see ourselves as a full service tech and advertising agency. So we offer what we call a fully managed service where we'll create the advert for the client for the same cost. It's the same low cost. So we'll create the advert for the client and then we work with our media partners. So we have media partnerships with the largest radio station owners in the UK and the world's largest podcast advertising network. And, and these are companies that own every commercial radio station you've heard of, the big ones, you know, Heart Great Sits Radio, lbc, Capital Jazz fm, Classic fm, all the ones you, you've heard of, which get millions and millions of listeners every week.Arup Biswas [00:07:49]:And we partner with those guys to actually broadcast the advert for the client. So we offer a full one stop shop solution where the client can just say to us, yes, create the advert for us and we want it broadcast in Chester in, in September for two weeks. And we want to target a particular demographic now because more and more people are listening to radio adverts, not on traditional radios but on what you call connected devices, smart speakers, phones, game stations, Alexas, all those kind of things that gives you a lot of data about who's listening. And because the media owners have that data, we could target really effectively. So nowadays if a business owner says to us, oh my target audience is Eastbourne for example, but I only want to target 45 year old business owners in Eastbourne, within a 10 mile radius of Eastbourne and they have to be female business owners, we can do that. We could target exactly that audience through our media partners and deliver the advert exactly to that audience. So nobody else other than those target audience people will hear the advert which makes the advertising spend really effective of course. So what we do for the client is we create the advert, we manage the broadcast for them, we get it broadcast and we send them analytics at the end of it.Arup Biswas [00:09:02]:So, and obviously they can hear the advert when it's live on air. So we offer a full service solution.Stuart Webb [00:09:09]:And I think it's really important to, to, to, to, to sort of emphasize in this, if it's not become very obvious, that makes this really very, very cost effective, doesn't it? Because you're not paying for the normally 95% of people who don't want, you're targeting the very specific people that you know that you have a solution to their problem and therefore that advert becomes extremely relevant and very much more targeted.Arup Biswas [00:09:35]:That's right. And actually some of the campaigns we've already run for clients, they've been very targeted campaigns. So we've got one coming up actually in the next couple of weeks which is targeting business owners in Birmingham and it's just targeting Birmingham city centre. So like a mile, a couple of mile radius of Birmingham city centre. It's only targeting business owners because that's who the business the advertiser wants to target. We can even set the age range. If they only want to target business owners over 25, for example, we could do that. So yeah, it makes it very effective and it means you're not, you're not wasting your ad spend on people hearing your advert who aren't in your target audience.Arup Biswas [00:10:13]:So why why waste money doing that?Stuart Webb [00:10:15]:Terrific. So that brings me on to the sort of third question. Is there a piece of advice, an offer, something that you can give, give to the audience listening at the moment, the people watching us on YouTube, LinkedIn who might say, well, this sounds like it's interesting. So how do I get some advice from this guy and understand whether or not this is for me?Arup Biswas [00:10:34]:Yeah, well, the first thing I would do is I'd say look at one of the challenges is people often think that radio listenership in particular is declining. They know podcast listenership is increasing because podcasts are booming massively around the world, but they think radio listenership generally is declining. And that's not the case at all. Radio listenership is really, really strong in the and around the world. So in terms of free advice, free resources, I would tell people to go to a couple of the industry websites. These are completely in industry official websites. One is called radiocentre.org which is kind of the voice of the radio industry in the uk. The second one is a site called Rajar R a j a r.co.uk which is run by the BBC and the Radio center which gives the stats on how many people listen to different radio stations.Arup Biswas [00:11:24]:So if you go there and even if you look for your local radio station, so you might want to know how many people listen to heart radio in your part of the world, you can go there and you can see the actual stats of how many people are listening to heart radio in your area. So you'll know how big the audience is. The second bit of advice I'd give, and this may sound a bit self serving, is just go onto our website, go into register for our free advertising service. There's no cost to create the advert. The only, the only cost is if you want to download the advert at the end of the process. But you don't have to do that if you just want to go in, have a look, see how it works, actually create an advert yourself, see how it sounds, do that, go in there, have a play with it, see how easy it is to create a professional audio advert and that you'll, that will make you very familiar and comfortable with knowing it's really easy. Now you don't need the traditional ways of creating adverts now. What we've done is created a disruptive way to create an professional audio ad cheaply and quickly.Stuart Webb [00:12:21]:So anybody who's just tried to sort of write down all of that information, I can promise you, and I've put it on screen. Now, if you go to our vault, which is systemize S Y S T E M I s e.me forward/free hyphen stuff that's systemized me free hyphen stuff, all of those links that ARIP has just, just mentioned will be there. You don't have to try and write them down. Just remember, systemize me free hyphen stuff, dead easy. Go on that, pick up all of that links, pick all of the information that we've got and we'll be able to direct you to all of that stuff that ARUP has just mentioned. And that will save you having to try and remember a lot of information which is actually going to help you to understand exactly how you can create these adverts. Low cost, highly targeted, very relevant to the person, has a problem that you can solve for them. And if that doesn't bring in leads, then nothing else will.Stuart Webb [00:13:17]:Arab, you've mentioned a little bit about how you sort of began your journey towards this. You were, you were obviously in the media world yourself. Was there a, was there a moment, a book, a course and in a meeting, something which sort of struck you as, okay, I've got a solution to a problem. I need to, I need to start telling the world about this. What brought you to who you are at the moment, as it were?Arup Biswas [00:13:38]:Yeah, well, as I said, myself, my co founder, Monok, we come from the media sector and actually we both started off as traditional newspaper journalists back in the day when, you know, newspaper readership was huge. So we started in the media sector. We moved into different areas of media operations in terms of managing news websites and operations, those kind of things. But we worked quite closely with advertising teams in our media companies. So we were working with colleagues who were working with local businesses who were looking to promote themselves via. In those days it was all newspaper advertising. You'll remember, Stuart, back in the day, all the job listings weren't on. Indeed they were in your local paper.Stuart Webb [00:14:16]:And all the properties, I don't remember those times.Arup Biswas [00:14:18]:I'm only 21, I'm obviously older than you.Stuart Webb [00:14:24]:21 in a few months. I just haven't counted the number of months recently.Arup Biswas [00:14:29]:But trust me, in, in, I'm going to say in the old days, job listings, property listings, they're all in your local paper. That's where you would go, you know, Thursday used to be job paper day. You know, you'd get a paper on a Thursday and that's where your jobs were. Wednesday was for property. Now all that has moved online. But working with commercial teams in media organizations. Like I said, we understood how SME owners, business owners were evolving, what they wanted to do. They were Google AdWords was a new thing at the time.Arup Biswas [00:14:55]:You know, the, the power of advertising online became a new thing and more and more were shifting away from traditional print advertising into online advertising. But there was a growing band who wanted to go further and want to do things like radio advertising. But there just wasn't the capability to do it. A low cost, easy to, easy to use and understand way and it hasn't been for years. You know, we set up to solve that problem, to fix that problem. We, we knew AI could solve that problem and we built our own system to enable us to do it. So we have our own proprietary system that uses AI. Now if you're into AI, yeah, it's fine, it's exciting.Arup Biswas [00:15:31]:But if you just focus on the outcome of I want to reach potential large audiences in a really effective and powerful way. Radio advertising, podcast advertising is number one. And actually it's not me saying that numerous bodies, including the Guardian newspaper and Tapestry research, they did some analysis a few years ago about the effectiveness of podcast advertising, for example, and what they found, what they found was podcast advertising is more, it's the most effective form of advertising around, much more effective than online advertising, a lot more effective than TV advertising. And actually what they found in their in depth analysis and research was 52% of of podcast listeners who heard an advert in a podcast wanted to buy something from the brand. 38% of people who heard an advert on radio wanted to buy something from the brand. And there's a whole stack of literature about the science of audio and the fact it goes in your ear and it sticks in your brain and it, and you digest it and you, and it works its way into your brain in a different way to things you see visually, for example. So there's a lot of science about how audio is the most effective method of getting a message in, in your brain and also the most effective message method of advertising and getting the customers to recall your brand, recall your message and go onto your website and make a purchase.Stuart Webb [00:16:55]:Terrific. I'm very aware of the fact that you've given a huge amount of very detailed answers to questions that I've given you, but probably I've not yet asked you the one question that I should have asked and that's probably my fault for having not realized. There's an important question here, but there must be one important question that you keep thinking. When's he going to ask this really, really important question. So I'm going to ask you now to tell me what that question was. And obviously, as you know what the question is, you're also going to have to answer it for me because I can't answer that question.Arup Biswas [00:17:25]:That's fine. Well, I guess a really obvious question is what do I do with an advert? And I know it sounds really obvious because we've been talking about advertising on radio, we've been talking about advertising podcasts and Absolutely, you know, create the advert. That's where it'll go. That's where you're going to get your biggest audience when it's broadcast on radio or broadcast in podcast. However, an audio advert doesn't have to be just used in that way. There's lots of other things you can do with an audio advert. You can stick it on your website, you can stick it in your newsletters, you can stick it on your email, you can use on social media. So if you never want it to be on radio or you don't think you can afford the cost of it, going out on radio or podcast doesn't mean that an audio advert won't be effective.Arup Biswas [00:18:06]:It will be effective and there's lots of ways you can use it. So, you know, if you don't want it on Heart FM or Greatest Radio or in the podcast or whatever, fine. Use it on your website, Use it on your, in your blog section if you've got one. Use it in your emails. User on social media, people still digest it in the same way. It's still going through people's ears. They're still hearing the message. It's just a different medium that's going out.Arup Biswas [00:18:29]:So that's the one thing I think people should get, should really understand that using our system or using any system to create an advert doesn't necessarily mean you have to broadcast it on radio. An audio file, an audio advert can be used in lots of different ways and it's a powerful mechanism whichever way they use.Stuart Webb [00:18:48]:And now it's as cost effective as you described, Eric. There's no reason not to do five, six, seven of them and use them in different ways, different channels where, you know, there'll be different audiences. I'm always very keen on talking to business owners who are sort of unsure about whether or not they should target and get very much more niche in there trying to solve particular problems. And I keep saying to them the niche person is the one that actually it's where the money is really made. So actually creating a very niche advert might sound like a really crazy idea, but actually it's the one which is probably going to be the most effective in bringing the person that has a problem that you solve to get to know who you are and start to know and trust you. And it's a much more effective way of doing it by something as simple as creating an audio advert like you're describing than it is by blasting a message to the entire world and hoping, which is just a very ineffective strategy.Arup Biswas [00:19:41]:Yeah. And, you know, with our services, there's two ways to, to look at that. One is, as I said, with the radio advertising, it can be really targeted at who you want to reach and the demographics. But podcast advertising is a really interesting space. I mean, everyone know how big podcasts are getting? You know, they're huge globally in the UK and globally. But with podcasts, obviously there, it's a bit like websites. There's podcasts for everything and podcasts for very niche subjects. So if you want a podcast just on marketing, you'll come to your podcast Stuart.Arup Biswas [00:20:11]:But if you want a podcast on business growth that you, you know, sorry, your business growth podcast will come to you. If you want one on marketing, if you want one on cars, whatever, there'll be a podcast about it. I mean, if you. Everybody knows about the Peter Crouch podcast, you know, and he's got some really successful podcasts out there now, music podcasts that appeal to people, they're funny, that the comedy podcast, but the podcast for everything. And whatever sector you're working in, there will be a podcast that relates to that sector. So that means you can have an advert in that particular podcast, which means only people that be hearing it are people that you want to target, people who are, who are looking for those services or looking for knowledge and experience. So you can be really, really highly targeted. Which is why some podcast advertising can be a bit more expensive because it's so targeted.Arup Biswas [00:21:04]:But going back to your point, it's exactly that point, you're not wasting a single penny on people that aren't in your target audience.Stuart Webb [00:21:11]:Brilliant. Brilliant. Arab. I think you've really, really hit the nail on the head with that. And I'm just going to, once again, if you, if I would encourage you, go to Systemize me free hyphen stuff, go and find out Those email, those URLs, those websites that are mentioned, they will be in the vault. You can go there, you can pick up those, those valuable links and find out just how quickly and easily you can create an advert like Arup has just described to you. I'm going to back up what he's saying. I've been doing some sort of helping people launch their own podcast just recently.Stuart Webb [00:21:47]:When you look at the number of blogs there are in the world and yet there are so few podcasts and blogs are something that I know every web expert tells me, you must have a blog, you must have a blog. If you've got a blog but you haven't got a podcast, you've missed out on a huge section of potential audience I happen to have to attend. Not because I, because I was doing something else there, but I was attending an event recently in the middle of Derby which was around the train industry and there were no less than 12 YouTube and podcast people there, all creating podcasts about the trains that they were seeing. So there are some really huge audiences for these people. If they hadn't expected there to be a huge audience for their stuff, they wouldn't have been there. So go think about it. Go have a look at what you can do with podcasts, look at what you can do with an advert to promote your stuff on a podcast and get out there and do it. Arup, I've got to thank you for, for what you've just said.Stuart Webb [00:22:46]:I think it's brilliant stuff and really, really appreciate you coming on and spending a few minutes with us.Arup Biswas [00:22:50]:Thank you, sir, I really enjoyed it. Thank you for the opportunity.Stuart Webb [00:22:53]:No problem. If you'll excuse me, I'm just going to now encourage people to subscribe to this podcast and website. Go to once again, Systemize Me subscribe you just, it's a simple format, asks you for what two things, your first name and your email address. And every week you'll get an email with me from me telling you who's coming up on this so that you can join live on LinkedIn or YouTube and actually get the sort of valuable free advice from experts such as Eric. We don't have people on here who have got something really valuable to say.

[00:00:38] Duane Mancini: What better industry than where I get to wake up every day and just save people's lives. [00:00:42] Lindsey Dinneen: These are extraordinary people doing extraordinary work, and this is The Leading Difference. Hello, and welcome back to another episode of The Leading Difference podcast. I'm your host, Lindsey, and today I am absolutely delighted to introduce you to my guest, Katie Bochnowski. Katie is Senior Vice President of Customer Success and Services at NowSecure co-author of the book, "iPhone and iOS Forensics," and a recognized expert in mobile forensics and app security testing. Katie holds a master's in Cyber Forensics and Bachelor's of Science and Computer Technology from Purdue University. In her current role, Katie oversees customer support, onboarding and success departments, as well as the mobile AppSec Professional Services Organization that is responsible for pen testing, training, and consulting. All right. Well, welcome. Thank you so much for being here. I'm so delighted to speak with you today. [00:01:37] Katie Bochnowski: Awesome. I'm really happy to be here. [00:01:39] Lindsey Dinneen: Excellent. Well, I would love, if you wouldn't mind just starting off by telling us a little bit about yourself, your background, and what led you to medtech. [00:01:48] Katie Bochnowski: Awesome. Sure. So, I'm Katie Bochnowski. I work for a company called NowSecure. My background, dating back many years to school is in computer technology and more specifically cyber forensics. Where I am now is mobile app security. How I got into that industry is, is really from that forensic background. Our company used to do data recovery and forensic investigations on mobile devices, and we kind of quickly realized that mobile apps are storing a lot of data. So we shifted into proactively working with organizations to secure those apps that reside on devices. And in terms of medtech, obviously you can probably make that connection, but we began working closely with first, companies that really care about the data that's being stored, and transmitted on those apps, which absolutely includes medtech industry. [00:02:43] Lindsey Dinneen: Awesome. Okay, so going back a little bit. So when you were first deciding on college paths and career paths and all those lovely things, what drew you to where you ended up? [00:02:55] Katie Bochnowski: You know, I don't have a great, like "aha" moment for this question. It was just one of those things. I grew up, I had a computer in my house. I did Typing Tutor when I was really young on MS Dos, and I just always en enjoyed that. I had a friend in high school and we both got interested in making our own website with HTML. So, it was just enjoying being around computers and also tinkering to figure out what was wrong with something from a technology perspective. Purdue is where I attended. Purdue had a more generic computer technology degree that I didn't have to know exactly what I wanted to do. You could try different paths, so that's kind of what got me into it. It's not like I knew I wanted to do that my whole life, but I never really went back or questioned it. I always just kind of enjoyed it along the way. [00:03:45] Lindsey Dinneen: Yeah. Excellent. Okay, so the phrase cyber forensics is just exciting. So, can you dive a little bit more into exactly what that means and entails and what it looks like? [00:03:57] Katie Bochnowski: Yeah, absolutely. So, it is exciting- -so much so, in fact, that my senior year of college, the very first time they offered this class, it was called Cyber Forensics, it was an elective and it sounded amazing. And, it was amazing. It was really cool. We went through from start to finish, how you collect evidence from a computer and technology perspective, how you keep it pristine, how you collect the data off of it. We even got to work with local law enforcement as part of an internship to do all that, so I was very lucky in that my very last semester of my four years, they offered this and I just really, really liked it. It always was there in the back of my mind. So yeah, cyber forensics is really the collective of all things digital, which is everything, now. I don't do, necessarily, that work anymore, but I can't even imagine all of the data collection off of Alexas and, and all of those devices. But yeah, that's, that's kind of how I got into that. [00:04:56] Lindsey Dinneen: Wow, that's really cool. Yeah. So, okay, so talking about this data collection and all of these things, I'm curious, what are maybe one or two things that just really surprised you when you started getting into the industry and doing the work? [00:05:11] Katie Bochnowski: I know people always said this, and it shouldn't have been a surprise, but when I first started working for NowSecure-- which was actually called Via Forensics back in the day when I first started-- we worked on a lot of individual cases, so people saying, " Can you recover my deleted text messages, and pictures..." and things like that, and the amount of data that really does reside on those devices still after you delete them, going back months, years. So, I don't know if that's still the case now. I don't know if they do a better job of that, but that was surprising to us. What was also surprising was how much apps are storing and transmitting data on those devices when you don't think about it. So a lot of these cases that we would work on, they would focus so much on voicemails, emails, photos, and text messages, but nobody ever said, "Hey, can you go check the Facebook app or the Messenger app you're using?" That was something we realized pretty quickly, and were shocked to see-- this was 15 years ago-- how many apps were storing incredibly sensitive information on those devices. [00:06:20] Lindsey Dinneen: Yeah. And so now that there's more awareness of this and people are maybe, hopefully taking a little bit more ownership of even their own awareness and education with all of it, what do you see are the changes and shifts towards better protection? [00:06:38] Katie Bochnowski: Yeah. Great question. So there's a couple things: One, people are more aware, so they are leveraging the best practices really for these things. So there's places you should and shouldn't store data on devices, and you should use encryption for sensitive information and encryption that can't easily be broken into. The platforms themselves, too--Android, iOS-- have also made improvements in protecting those sandboxes. But, it's not everything, so you absolutely still have to be mindful of that. A lot of organizations like medtech companies and financial organizations do add a lot of those extra protections. But a lot of people don't, still. They're not either, don't think about it as much or aren't aware of it. And then the other thing that we see is everyone could have, you know, a hundred percent perfect intentions in storing and protecting that data, but you make a mistake, or you accidentally leave a debug flag on or something like that, where this information still can be accessed even though developers and security organizations are following the best practices there. [00:07:51] Lindsey Dinneen: Hmm. Yeah. So as you look toward the future of device security in general and cybersecurity, what are you looking forward to in terms of improvements, and hope for the future? Because I know there's a lot of things to worry about, just in life. But, what are some of the things that you're hopeful about? [00:08:11] Katie Bochnowski: Yeah. I'm hopeful for the--I'm going to call it the camaraderie--we're seeing between security and development groups. Not that there was argument or debate between them before-- there probably was a little bit-- but we are seeing a lot more organizations have what they refer to as a Security Champions Program, which brings those groups together. Security used to be seen, and probably in a lot of cases still, is seen as that blocker. Developers are being rushed and pushed to release features quickly. They have deadlines, timelines, and then if security finds an issue, it has to go back to the drawing board to remediate. But, with these programs, we're seeing either a development group that has a security champion there, or just teams kind of melding together a little bit more to build that testing earlier on. That's a trend we're seeing increase more and more. And, I believe that's going to only continue because it's just the right thing to do for everyone all around. [00:09:12] Lindsey Dinneen: Yeah, and that collaboration piece is so critical to eventual success, or hopefully even shorter-term success, like said, so that there's not as many iterations. It's like, "No, let's just integrate and do this from the start well together." Yeah. [00:09:27] Katie Bochnowski: Yep. [00:09:27] Lindsey Dinneen: Cool. Okay, so, you started with NowSecure, and then eventually you got your first medtech client. Could you talk about that experience? [00:09:36] Katie Bochnowski: Yeah, absolutely. Actually, before I even started with NowSecure, I worked for a Fortune 100 company in their security department doing firewall rule management. And, it was all good and everything, but I remember thinking throughout my career, I'm the type of person that likes to do things meaningful, making an impact on people. So, for many years, I was like, "Okay, what am I doing? I'm just executing firewall rules, I'm recovering data..." That's why the forensic work was so appealing to me because you were actually helping assist with investigations that mattered. Then, getting into the mobile app security industry was certainly important, but it took it to a whole new level for me when we got our first medtech client. I remember going on site and seeing some of the things that the apps can do in conjunction with medical devices, implants, et cetera, and thinking, "If you get this wrong, this can impact a human life." That helped bring all of this to a whole new level, and it's something I talk about internally within our organization as well to help people understand how meaningful it is --what we do, what the medtech industry does, and how important it is to get security right. It's just helped me with a new perspective. I love working with our medtech industry clients. It's contagious to be around them and see how much they care about what they do, and, how important it is to their lives --makes an impact on the way I work as well, then. [00:11:06] Lindsey Dinneen: Yeah, I love that. I think that's so true. I get so inspired by even just talking with these incredible founders, their devices and their heart behind why they're doing what they're doing. It's not an easy road so choosing to do so, and then hearing that passion is what drives them sometimes in those crazy late nights, early mornings, hassle in between, you know? So you started getting medtech clients, and now you've developed a niche offering for that group. I'm wondering, what are some of the common themes that you see companies maybe aren't aware to consider when they're starting their development of their devices and apps? And, perhaps just some general advice: What should people be on the lookout for? [00:11:50] Katie Bochnowski: Yeah, so I guess you-- I shouldn't say unique, but specific to organizations like medtech industry or, financial or healthcare and the apps they build-- is that highly sensitive information. And so I guess my advice and the thing I would point out that I see in those types of applications is not only, of course, best security practices and understanding what's unique in mobile is super important because web apps have been developed for many, many years. Mobile apps now have been many years, but people don't necessarily know that it is unique in the way that they are developed and the different attack surface, right? You have the local device attack surface. You have the attack surface of other apps that could be malicious that are installed on that device. So, understanding what those mobile unique security best practices are is my number one piece of advice for developers. Number two would then be multiple layers of security protection. So, developing a secure app is one part of it, and a very important part of it. What we see is a lot of organizations sometimes are dependent on either the protections of the device OS itself--the Android OS protections or iOS protections. And, there are tools out there that offer protections like tamper detection: If you detect the app is being tampered with, don't launch it. If you detect the app is installed on an exploited, rooted, jailbroken device, don't launch it. Or, don't allow login. Those are important, but those can be bypassed and so I say multiple layers of protection. I'm not against those protections. I think they're very important. I think you should do them, but you should also assume in some cases they can be bypassed, and you need to have that foundational security in the way you develop your applications. [00:13:48] Lindsey Dinneen: Yeah. So, you've had a really interesting career so far, and I'm sure you've seen a lot of things over the years. What are some moments that really stand out to you, especially with your medtech clients, as, as hitting home that, "Wow, I am in the right place at the right time, making an impact." [00:14:09] Katie Bochnowski: I think it's hard because it's not like there's one single moment. Because what you want to avoid in this industry is a breach, is something like this "oh my gosh," this big negative moment. And so honestly, it's seeing the organizations we work with, not having that happen. When you do see a breach that might be mobile-specific, I immediately jump in and see, "Okay, what happened? How did they exploit this? What was the actual vulnerability that led to this?" We check for that, and we help our customers test for that and knowing, "Okay, whew. They're covered." And we see that kind of stuff all the time. So I don't have, necessarily, a big moment, but I do have those moments along the way where it's like, you see something in the news, and you are not surprised by the way that was exploited. It's something that is foundational to mobile app security, and you know your customers are protected. [00:15:09] Lindsey Dinneen: Yeah. Well, that's a really good reminder in general because sometimes you get those big, crazy, sort of in-your-face moments that are going, "Yes, okay, I know why I'm here." But then, those don't happen all that much, usually. So having those little encouragements along the way of, "No, you're on the right path, you're doing the right things is incredibly... [00:15:30] Katie Bochnowski: It's funny; it actually reminds me of sometimes we'll work with customers and they'll use our products or services--and, they'll be upset because we haven't found anything in a certain amount of time. Seriously. And they're like, "You must not be testing enough" or " You haven't found anything high risk in six months." Sometimes, we have to remind them that's good. "Green is good," is what we always say. "Green is good." And, of course you want to check and make sure you're doing everything, in depth as possible. But, if you do a full two-week pen test and nothing big is found, that's good. You're doing a great job. So, take the win. Green is good. [00:16:07] Lindsey Dinneen: Green is good. I love it. Words to live by. You have had a really interesting trajectory even through NowSecure, but throughout your career and you've stepped into different kinds of leadership roles. I'm wondering how has that evolution been for you as a leader? What are some of your key takeaways that you've discovered work really well, and maybe some lessons learned? [00:16:29] Katie Bochnowski: Yeah, so I was not the person coming out of college that said, "I want to get my MBA, I want to be a CEO, I want to be, you know, high up in an organization." I just knew I liked computer technology, I liked tinkering--that kind of stuff. So I wanted to do things that were interesting. Via forensics, and now, NowSecure really was amazing for me because I got to do all of that. I got to grow with the company. I was really the first employee with the co-founder here, and as the company grew, I naturally started developing the managerial and the leadership roles as we hired more people and got more clients. So for me, I learned on the job, along the way, and when I think about it, I see people that are very ambitious to be a manager and, that's okay too. The best leaders that I've seen have been leaders that have naturally and organically developed a mutual respect, trust, and collaboration with their teams, seeing them as partners and peers and not someone to delegate things to in an authoritative way. And that's not just necessarily from a managerial perspective, because I see individual contributors, on my team for example, that exhibit amazing leadership skills, developing those relationships with other departments. And when you do that, you get-- I don't mean this in the way it's gonna sound, but you get people to do things for you because they want to, because they want to support you. And so that's what I always like to focus on is, just building those relationships, having empathy for other people. And, of course there's delegation that comes with that, but when you do that, then they want to do that for you or for the organization because you've, you've built that foundation. [00:18:20] Lindsey Dinneen: Yes. That's great advice. I really appreciate that. There were several things in there that, stood out to me. One of them was your comment about even individual contributors can be leaders, so even if you are not technically in a managerial role, or you don't have anyone working underneath you at the moment, doesn't mean you can't develop those skill sets and lead yourself and lead your own direction. So I think that's a really important note. And, something to give a little bit of perhaps inspiration, too. So if you want to be in that leadership role at some point, but you're not there yet, doesn't mean you can't build the skills along the way. [00:18:54] Katie Bochnowski: Yeah, absolutely. And I think about, I, I have heard people in the past say, "Oh, I can't go ask them to do something. I don't have the authority to do that." I hear that a lot. " I'm not their manager. I can't tell them to do that." And then there's people that don't even think that way, and just build that relationship and get others to collaborate and work with them. Those are the natural leaders that managers are going to see and want to promote to be the next manager. Right? So, if I'm gonna give another piece of advice, it would say, never say, "I don't have the authority, or I don't have the power to do that." Or "It's above my pay grade" is something that I'm like, "Oh, don't say that," because nothing is. You just need to learn to work with others to figure out how to do that. [00:19:41] Lindsey Dinneen: Yeah, and I think you're absolutely right about relationship building and collaboration being such a key to success in general. I mean, I think about all of the opportunities that are created and these sort of magical, what feel like magical, synergistic moments that happen, but they're not magical. They're because of intentionally cultivating these relationships. So yeah, I love that. And then helping people come up alongside you. So that's actually a concept I'd love to hear about your experience, either as a mentor or mentee, or anything like that that you've experienced that has really been inspirational to you. [00:20:18] Katie Bochnowski: Yeah. Well, I guess I have maybe two examples. I had someone that was working on my team many years ago and, again, we worked very closely as, I saw him as a partner and he got to a place basically at the organization where I would always tell him, "We could switch jobs, and you could do this and I could report to you and it doesn't matter," because I saw him grow that quickly. And he is now in another position that's probably double my pay and I don't know. But that's... you want to see that. And, some people might be threatened by that, but you shouldn't be, if you are doing the right thing because you want to see people grow into those roles. I don't know if this directly answers your question, but there is a leader who's a CEO of another organization who I have always looked up to, and I just see this is exactly how she leads. You know, everybody respects her. Everybody wants to support her and her mission at her company. Even when you're not working at her company like me, you just see the way she leads and the way she has built relationships throughout all of the employees in her organization. It's just something that I aspire to. [00:21:27] Lindsey Dinneen: Yeah, absolutely. And sometimes it's really helpful 'cause you'll get your share of... well I think most people at least have had the experience of getting their share of people in leadership roles that they would maybe not wish to emulate. So getting to be inspired by the people who are doing it correctly is is lovely. Yeah. Yeah. I love that. What is your number one, if you could boil it down, piece of advice for ordinary folks who are looking to up their own security game and just be more aware. [00:22:04] Katie Bochnowski: Be curious; don't wait for someone to show you or teach you how to do something. Part of what I oversee is managing a group of mobile app pen testers, and the best pen testers that I've seen are not the ones that have tons of experience or skill. It's actually, we've had two interns come straight out of school, come in and just dive into things without being asked, and just go figure it out and learn. And so be curious. Go try online exams and labs, even if you have no clue what you're doing, just try it, research and figure it out, and be curious. And I guess that's my biggest thing. [00:22:45] Lindsey Dinneen: I love it. Yeah. Curiosity gets you far in life. Yeah. I love that. Okay, so pivoting the conversation a little bit, just for fun. Imagine that you were to be offered a million dollars to teach a masterclass on anything you want. It doesn't have to be in your industry, but it could be. What would you choose to teach? [00:23:07] Katie Bochnowski: Okay, this might take a nerdy turn. [00:23:11] Lindsey Dinneen: Excellent. [00:23:12] Katie Bochnowski: And I would need a lot of education or somebody else who's an expert in this to actually teach the class. But, I've personally gotten really interested the last couple years into brain health, neuroplasticity, managing stress, and the importance of it. And, this is from a personal situation that I went through and not really understanding how just everyday, little stressors--I never saw myself as a highly stressed person. I was actually quite the opposite--but, when you internalize a lot of, just like I said, everyday stressors, doesn't have to be anything big-- arguing with my daughter every morning to get dressed before school has an impact on your body and your brain health. And it started having physical symptoms in me that got scary, right? I don't need to dive into that, but from that, it helped me in meeting with a bunch of health experts and learning that what an impact your brain health really has on you. So if I could go back and teach some of the exercises that I was given--super simple things like these little games on your app that just help work different areas of your brain that you don't normally work. When you get into a routine at work, and every morning you wake up, send your kid to school, sit down at your desk, do the same meetings, emails, you have the same routine every day--you don't have, just a change in your routine, or try new hobbies, things like that, then your brain doesn't grow and, and that affects your health, and your mood, and all of that. I've just learned so much about that, and I remember getting to a point where I was like, "Why isn't this a class, a required class, in high school, college, and beyond. It should be part of onboarding at every job. So I guess that's my answer. I don't think I'm quite qualified to teach it, but I'd love to attend it. [00:25:14] Lindsey Dinneen: There you go. You can facilitate it. How about that? [00:25:16] Katie Bochnowski: Yeah. [00:25:17] Lindsey Dinneen: Excellent. Excellent. Yeah, and how do you wish to be remembered after you leave this world? [00:25:24] Katie Bochnowski: Oh, this is the hard one for me. I think it's probably a cliche answer, but just, you know, caring for others, doing things for others, being kind-- just being a good person... [00:25:38] Lindsey Dinneen: Yeah. [00:25:38] Katie Bochnowski: ...is really all I want. [00:25:40] Lindsey Dinneen: Yeah. Very nice. And then final question. What is one thing that makes you smile every time you see or think about it? [00:25:50] Katie Bochnowski: Oh, this is also gonna be probably a common answer--my daughter, my daughter, who is six, going on 16, very much a teenager, but I remember a friend of mine telling me 'cause I remember asking her, when your child grows up, isn't it so sad that, oh, they're no longer a baby, they're no longer one, like to see them grow up. And she said, "Well, maybe a little bit. Each stage is something so new that you're so proud of, of what they've developed and grown that you don't even really think about that." Oh, and it's so true. It's just seeing her read and seeing her-- she's going to be a future leader. I guarantee it. [00:26:27] Lindsey Dinneen: Yay! [00:26:28] Katie Bochnowski: Just the way I've seen her, and so just seeing that, that pride overcomes any kind of, oh, I miss that one. But, of course, I still miss her when she was a baby. But, yeah, so that makes me smile. That and yoga! [00:26:42] Lindsey Dinneen: Yes. Yoga is so wonderful. I mean. Yeah. And speaking of ways to help de-stress, calm down a bit. Yeah. [00:26:51] Katie Bochnowski: It has helped me dramatically, for sure. So... [00:26:53] Lindsey Dinneen: Excellent. Excellent. Well, it has been a true pleasure and honor to have you here today, Katie. So thank you so much for spending a little bit of time, and we are so honored to be making a donation on your behalf as a thank you for your time today to Save the Children, which works to end the cycle of poverty by ensuring communities have the resources to provide children with a healthy, educational, and safe environment.

We're grateful, and I wish you the most amazing continued success. [00:27:33] Katie Bochnowski: Thank you for having me. This was awesome. I appreciate it. [00:27:37] Lindsey Dinneen: Awesome. And yeah. Thank you also to our listeners for tuning in, and if you're feeling as inspired as I am right now, I'd love it if you shared an episode with a colleague or two, and we'll catch you next time.

Anna, Raven, Producer Julie, and Producer Justin go around the room and share what is hurting them to see who the hypochondriac is! Monica and Jonathan have a daughter turning 14. All she wants for her birthday is tickets to see Olivia Rodrigo with a friend. She saw the tickets were over $600 resale, but Monica thinks it's worth it for the daughter. Two tickets, for $1200. Jonathan thinks she is crazy. It is so much money, and they are so young; an adult should be going with them to supervise. He doesn't think Monica is being smart here. What do you think? Riley and Natalie have a chance to win $900! All they has to do is answer more pop culture questions than Raven in Can't Beat Raven!

Elliot's back from vacation, and Dan stepped into the virtual podcast studio with him to uncover all the hacks he missed while hiking in Italy.
