The ThreatLocker Zero Trust World Conference 2025 has wrapped up, leaving attendees with a new perspective on cybersecurity and a deeper understanding of how to defend against evolving threats. For Rob Allen, Chief Product Officer (CPO) of ThreatLocker, the event wasn't just about discussing theories - it was about empowering IT professionals with hands-on experience to strengthen their security postures. ThreatLocker's Zero Trust World Conference As the dust settles, Allen reflects on the key takeaways from the conference, the growing impact of AI-driven threats, and why a deny-by-default approach is the future of cybersecurity. From IT Engineer to Cybersecurity Leader Allen's career journey has been anything but traditional. Having spent nearly two decades at an IT company in Dublin, he worked across technical, engineering, and sales roles, giving him a unique perspective on both the technology and the people using it. "I started as the guy locked in a room working on tech, but over the years, I learned that being able to explain complex concepts in a way people understand is just as important," Allen says. That ability to bridge the gap between cybersecurity and real-world business needs has been a driving force behind his work at ThreatLocker, and it was a key focus at this year's conference. The Zero Trust Revolution: Deny by Default, Permit by Exception One of the most powerful lessons from the event was the importance of flipping traditional cybersecurity approaches on their head. "For years, businesses have operated on a permit-by-default model - allowing everything to run unless it's explicitly known to be bad," Allen explains. "The problem is, there are 150,000 new pieces of malware released every single day. There's no way to keep up with that." Instead of trying to identify every possible threat, ThreatLocker's deny-by-default model ensures that only pre-approved applications and processes can run. "We don't care if something is good or bad - we care if it's allowed or not," Allen says. "Most businesses use the same software every day - Office, browsers, maybe a few industry-specific apps. We put guardrails around that. If something tries to run that isn't approved, it gets blocked." This approach resonated with conference attendees, who witnessed firsthand how traditional security measures fail to keep up with modern threats. AI-Powered Cyberattacks: The New Reality A major theme of this year's conference was the growing role of AI in cybercrime. AI-powered tools are making it easier than ever for attackers to generate malware, even for those with little to no technical experience. "To prove how dangerous AI can be in the wrong hands, we ran a simple test," Allen explains. "We asked ChatGPT for code that could remotely execute commands on a computer. At first, it refused, citing ethical concerns. But when we rephrased the question - asking for a 'simple C# program to allow remote command execution' - it gave us fully functional reverse shell code." The implications are massive. Traditional malware detection failed to flag the AI-generated script because it was brand new, never-before-seen code. "In the past, you needed serious coding skills to write malware," Allen says. "Now, all you need is the ability to ask AI the right questions. That's why detection-based security is no longer enough." Hands-On Hacking: An Eye-Opening Experience One of the standout aspects of Zero Trust World was the interactive hacking workshops, where IT professionals got to experience cyberattacks from an attacker's perspective. "We don't just want to tell people about threats - we want them to see them in action," Allen says. Attendees learned how hackers: Use USB-based hacking tools (like Rubber Duckies) to inject malicious scripts into systems. Take over public Wi-Fi networks to intercept sensitive data. Bypass traditional antivirus solutions using AI-generated malware. "There were people in the room who have been in IT for 20 years...

In dieser Folge spricht Dr. Sebastian Voigt mit Fabian Uhrich, CPO bei Quicklizard, über die Zukunft der Preisoptimierung im Einzelhandel. Fabian erklärt, wie Quicklizard es Unternehmen ermöglicht, ihre Preisstrategie flexibel über verschiedene Kanäle hinweg zu gestalten – sei es in unterschiedlichen Ländern oder zwischen Discount- und Premium-Kanälen. Dank der Software können Unternehmen ihre Preise in Echtzeit anpassen, was Umsatzsteigerungen von 8-10 % und Gewinnsteigerungen von 3-5 % ermöglicht. „Pricing ist eine lebenslange Journey, permanent Prototyping”, erklärt Fabian. Preisstrategien müssen ständig weiterentwickelt werden, um am Puls des Marktes zu bleiben. Besonders spannend ist seine Perspektive auf strategische Entscheidungen: „Warum ‚make or buy”, wenn auch ‚make and buy‘ geht?“ – eine Kombination interner und externer Lösungen kann oft den größten Mehrwert schaffen. Auch die Preiselastizität betrachtet er differenziert: „Sie ist nicht der heilige Gral des Pricings.“ Neben diesem wichtigen Faktor spielen auch psychologische und unmessbare Einflüsse eine Rolle. Quicklizard setzt hier auf KI, um zusätzliche Trends und Einflussfaktoren zu integrieren, ohne bestehende Pricing-Prozesse komplett umzustellen. Über den Gast: Dr. Fabian Uhrich ist seit Februar 2024 Chief Product Officer (CPO) bei Quicklizard, wo er die Preisoptimierung und Automatisierung für Einzelhändler und Marken mit KI und maschinellem Lernen leitet. Zuvor war er von 2018 bis 2024 Partner bei Boston Consulting Group (BCG), mit Fokus auf datengetriebenes Pricing in B2C und B2B. Von 2014 bis 2018 war er Head of Online Marketing & Pricing bei Zooplus, wo er ein Team leitete und die dynamische Preisgestaltung für über 10.000 Produkte in rund 30 Märkten umsetzte. Fabian hat Betriebswirtschaftslehre mit Informatik an der TU München studiert und wurde zum Thema Behavioral Pricing promoviert.

As companies grow, they often hire dedicated product managers to oversee all the planning, development and launching a product. Business leaders recognize that this is a critical need and expect products to be managed holistically from ideation to development — so why don't more companies take that same approach when solving enterprise-wide problems with data and analytics?On this episode of the CDO Matters Podcast, Malcolm Hawker sits down with Bethany Lyons to discuss her role as KAWA Analytics' Chief Product Officer (CPO) before diving into a range of timely data topics including:• “Self-service' data governance• Product management approaches• Centralized security vs. decentralized data modeling• Enforcing data governance/security policies• The definition and uses of data build tools (DBT)• The longevity of CDO tenures• Key attributes of a good product manager…and so much more!EPISODE LINKS & RESOURCES:Follow Malcolm Hawker on LinkedInFollow Bethany Lyons on LinkedInVisit KAWA Analytics' website
As an expert in your field, you need to approach your work from every perspective. If a medical doctor can deliver a particular diagnosis for a patient, then they should also be able to do the same for themself. The same principle applies to data organizations and how they approach their own enterprise data.As a CDO, if your internal customers must pay to access the data or insights you provide, would they feel confident in your ability to deliver value from your data products? Is your business singularly focused on understanding and meeting customer needs — both now and on the road ahead? If not, then what's standing in your way? For many CDOs, the answer lies in making that crucial transition from being data-driven to data product-driven. In this episode, we discuss making the shift to becoming data product-driven. Malcolm is joined by Saleem Khan, Discovery Data's Chief Data & Analytics Officer (CDAO). During the discussion, Saleem shares valuable insights on thriving within the CDO's function for an organization whose core product is data. Saleem's shared insights include a framework for managing a data product pipeline, leading a team of data product managers, and implementing processes to anticipate future market demand. Saleem's recommendations even include insights on a sales enablement methodology that can be used to ensure data consumers will derive benefit from data products and the critical role that a marketing function can play in ensuring data customers have a clear understanding of how a data product helps deliver a specific business outcome. Given Saleem's role is primarily as a Chief Product Officer (CPO), it should be no surprise that he won't discuss data quality, data governance, data pipelines or anything else deeply focused on data management. Instead, he focuses on several best practices and actionable insights for how to approach the role of a CDO should you wish to ensure stakeholder value remains at the core of everything you do. Key Moments[1:57] Saleem's Career Journey to Discovery Data[3:45] How Data Can Be Monetized/Validated[6:30] RAD Defined[9:12] The Role of a CDAO[13:10] Implementing the FRAME Framework[19:30] Aggregating Customer Data[21:40] Data Governance as a Business Model[23:35] Anticipating Consumer Interests[25:20] Taking a Product Management Approach[27:25] The Problem with ‘Data Literacy'[31:24] The Current State of Blockchain[34:00] Data as a Consumerized Product[38:51] The Fragmentation of Data SharingKey Takeaways Predicting Debt and Data Monetization (3:45)“One of the first forays I truly had into data science and the data world was building out a prediction model…where we would try to determine which companies were most likely to issue debt. So, on one end of the spectrum, you've got Microsoft and Apple which are incredibly cash-rich and they usually don't borrow…then on the other end of the spectrum, you've got companies that require a lot of cash because they're very capitol-driven and capitol-intensive and have to take out a lot of debt. And whenever debt is taken out, SMP has to take a rating on it.” — Saleem KhanThe Role of a CDAO (9:14)“As Chief Data and Analytics Officer, 50% of my job is sales and marketing, the other 50% is product development…My job becomes making sure I communicate with customers, especially our largest customers, as often as I can…Data is our product, so [for customers] who better to hear from than the Chief Data Officer about what trends there are, and where you are taking your data set?” — Saleem KhanAdopting the FRAME Framework (14:12)“We have a framework as part of our data operations. We have another framework called, FRAME. FRAME is an acronym that stands for ‘Fuel, Refine, Analyze, Magnify and Execute'. Each of these components is a different part of the data operations lifecycle…There are multiple ways to distribute your data and your content to customers.” — Saleem KhanThe Problem with Data Literacy (27:25)“I happen to be vehemently opposed to that phrase [data literacy] because it turns the problem to a user problem where I think it should be on the creation side. If you're creating a data product, if you're creating something for consumption…and they don't know how to use it and don't know how to derive value from it, I would argue that that is a product failure, not a user failure.” — Malcolm HawkerCreating a Product Narrative (29:25)“When you have a product that has a miss, there is one of two reasons: One could be that it was just a terrible product, and two could be ‘wrong place, wrong time'…but the products that do work out, they tend to work out because the CDO is working directly in tandem with sales and marketing to create that narrative, to tell that story of value to the customer… to make sure that customer has a simple and crystal clear understanding of how this data product will deliver a specific business outcome.” — Saleem KhanAbout Saleem KhanSaleem is the Chief Data & Analytics Officer (CDAO) at Discovery Data. With over 15 years of experience in the data space as a patented product, data and technology executive, he remains proficient at using data-driven and analytical techniques to deliver new digital products and implement digitally-enhanced process transformations.EPISODE LINKS & RESOURCES:Follow Malcolm Hawker on LinkedInFollow Saleem Khan on LinkedInVisit Discovery Data's website

Product-Led Growth is one of the hottest topics and trends in the B2B SaaS industry. Heading into 2023, most company will be evaluating their usage of every SaaS tool, and as a vendor understanding how customers are using your product is foundational to understanding and forecast customer retention metrics.Todd Olso founded Pendo, the leading Product Analytics solution provider, over 9 years ago. His vision was to combine product analytics and product utilization to enhance the user experience.Todd highlighted that as "software eats the world" the Pendo customer base has expanded far beyond software companies to mainstream industries such as retail.The first macro industry term we discussed was "Product-Led Growth". Todd re-framed the question to be a "product-centric" company and that product-led growth is just one aspect of a company's culture. Todd explained that when selling to highly regulated industries like governmental entities, that product-centric may be more about enhancing the user's experience in a digital-led model, even though the sale of the product was executed by and with humans.Todd highlighted the phrase "is this a feature or a bug". The context of the phrase is that when the user experience requires a human being to train users, this is a bug that needs to be fixed by being a product-led company.Pendo has recently launched a "product-led certification course", to teach professionals, including product managers and any other leader looking to learn more about how to introduce product-led concepts into their company.We pivoted to the concept of the Chief Product Officer (CPO) and their role in a product-centric organization. The CPO should own the strategic goals of how the product directly drives the company strategy and goals including how to connect the product to market/customer needs.Todd's personal belief is that a product-led company requires having both a Chief Technical Officer and a Chief Product Officer. The primary difference is the CTO is more conservative and focuses on the "-bilities" of technical products while the CPO is looking for strategic growth advantages that have a higher risk profile. This differentiation provides a healthy friction between the two different primary goals.If you are currently using a product-centric, customer facing process, or considering a product-led growth strategy, this conversation with Todd Olson, Founder, and CEO of Pendo is a great listen!
For CDOs to be successful today, they need to think more like a product manager. After all, product managers are responsible for every facet of their product. They determine which customer needs their products fulfill and define what success looks like for their product. And they're ultimately responsible for reporting that performance to executive leadership. Hopefully those responsibilities sound familiar to listeners of the CDO Matters Podcast — except that for them, their core product is data. In our latest episode, Malcolm is interviewed by Rishabh Dhingra on the Inspired Podcast, where Malcolm shares his perspectives on the growing trend toward treating data as a product. CDOs who are considering the addition of the product management mindset into their business will find his perspectives refreshing — given the great value that he believes product managers, and treating data as a product, can bring to most data-driven organizations. Malcolm shares details on his expertise in the field of product management, having been a Product Manager, a Product Director and, ultimately, a Chief Product Officer (CPO). Having managed teams of product managers in several software companies through the heyday of the internet boom, Malcolm has first-hand experience working in highly agile and fast-paced environments — where quickly adapting to changing needs was a daily struggle. As Malcolm describes it, the core DNA of a good product manager is all about problem-solving — where professional product managers are trained specifically to determine the optimal combination of product attributes to address customer needs given known constraints on time, money or resources. Product managers also know how to build business cases to support investments in their products; otherwise, businesses wouldn't invest in them. One of the biggest benefits of implementing more product management into data management is that they will provide the skills necessary to build business cases for data and analytics products — being a standard operating procedure in the world of product development. When it comes to data as a product, Malcolm believes many data leaders are often missing the mark by incorrectly focusing efforts on defining products rather than customer needs. He explains that it ultimately doesn't matter if a data product is a field, an attribute or an entire table — but what matters is if a customer need is solved. The need for data people to take a “bottoms-up” approach to data products — where the product is a function of the available “raw materials” — is a major flaw in data organizations that product managers could help a CDO avoid since product managers are inherently focused on solving customer needs. Why should companies consider managing data as a product? According to Malcolm, companies that deeply integrate product management practices into the field of data management — and who deeply embrace all aspects of data as a product — will drive competitive differentiation. The benefits of integrating product management practices into data management are many, but his highlights include better business cases, resource prioritization, cost management and many others as just a small subset of the universe of benefits with more focus on data as a product. By the end of this episode, current or aspiring CDOs who have not already considered the integration of product management practices into their data organizations — both for products and the supporting organization — should have a roadmap for implementing these PM practices into their data organization. Key Moments [1:15] Transitioning from Product Management into Data and Analytics [7:06] Resolving Customer Problems with Customer Data [12:30] Malcolm's Role at Profisee [15:40] Confusing Data Migration and Warehousing with Data Management [19:20] MDM Implementation: Successes and Fails [27:30] Why Product Managers Make Great Business Leaders [29:40] Defining Data as a Product (DaaP) [37:20] Applying Data as a Product Within Your Organization [47:30] The Future of Data and Analytics Key Takeaways Malcolm's Role as a Thought Leader and MDM Evangelist (12:40) “Primarily, I'm focused on evangelism…it is my job to raise the awareness in the market of the importance of data and analytics, the importance of master data management (MDM). How MDM can drive value for organizations and how it can be used as a foundational element for digital transformation.” — Malcolm Hawker Data Warehousing vs. Data Management/Governance (15:40) “So many companies that if you just put all of the data in one place that you have solved for data quality. That you've solved for having a single source of truth. That you have solved for having consistent data governance. That couldn't be farther from the truth. All you've done is put your data into one bucket. You may have limited the number of queries that you have to make or the number of sources that you have to go into. You may have made it a little easier to centralize permissions and access to that data…but putting it into one place doesn't solve for that issue…I am all for using data warehouses and I am all for using cloud-based solutions for housing data, but if you don't address some data quality issues, you're going to have a lot of problems.” — Malcolm Hawker Limiting Your Scope (23:45) “Most data and analytics leaders are not building business cases. That means they struggle with scope. But product managers know you've only got time, people and money. If one of those has to go, then you have to limit your scope…If you don't have a business case, then it's really hard for you to limit your scope. It's really hard for you to prioritize. It's really hard for you to understand where the biggest benefits are going to be…you can't differentiate whether A or B or C is going to drive value for the business. It inevitably leads to scope creep. It inevitably leads to situations where data and analytics leaders can't justify the things that they're doing.” — Malcolm Hawker Bringing Product Management to the Data Space (33:42) “If we could apply more product management into data management, data management would be a much better place. I would argue it would be far more customer-centric, it would be far more effective, it would be far more productive, we would be able to quantify the business benefits that we were driving, we would be able to prioritize our efforts, we would be able to spend money more efficiently, but what we do instead is we get into these arguments about, ‘What is a data product?' Is it a field? Is it an attribute? And it's not helping, because it's backward. Start from the need.” — Malcolm Hawker Where are Data and Analytics Headed? (47:35) “In terms of the future, there are some things that we know are here and will continue to be here and continue to expand [into] what I would have called when I was at Gartner, augmented data management. What that means are the application of AI and [machine learning] and cool new technologies…to provide added layers of automation in the world of data management. I would put the creation of management of data fabrics in the bucket as well…with limited numbers of people, we need more and more automation in the data space.” — Malcolm Hawker About Rishabh Dhingra Rishabh Dhingra is the host of the Inspired podcast and is currently a Solutions Consultant in Business Analytics at Google.

Seedcamp EiR David Mytton and VP Devin Hunt have both been successful, technical founders (Server Density, Lyst). As they scaled respective internal teams, they gathered a plethora of experiences on the matter. On this week's TMIK, our Managing Partner Carlos Espinal chats with David and Devin about "Unpacking the Stack", and the various angles to consider across product, engineering and design teams. The three dig into a range of topics, starting with hiring, and whom to hire first for both technical and non-technical founding teams. Then, they break down the terminology and various responsibilities of the different functions. Taking the example of product, Devin explains that the Chief Product Officer (CPO) is there to set the product vision, whereas a Product Manager (PM) manages an aspect of that vision. Furthermore, he explains that product teams are responsible for delivery, as well as working hand in hand with engineering and design teams. On that, David points out the importance of building cohesiveness within teams to better the communication (and shares a couple cues, including the power of show & tell meetings) Finally, Carlos asks Devin and out different reasons for early start-up killers. Some answers covered the balance in technical know-how in founding teams, the bias in prioritising engineering problems (vs. actually helping the business) or the difficulty to fire wrong hires early-on. We've been lucky enough to have both David and Devin with us at Seedcamp. This episode (un)packs a lot, so definitely tune in - lots of valuable insights shared!
Great work starts with great workflows. How do the best product marketing teams structure their workflows? Today's guest is Sergey Sundukovskiy, Co-Founder, CTO, and Chief Product Officer (CPO) at Salesmsg. Sergey talks about how to develop successful product marketing workflows and processes. Some of the highlights of the show include: Why product marketers should document, structure defined workflows/processes SalesMsg: How company views product marketing and management all together Product Management Stages: Ideation, collaboration, construction, and transition Repeatability: Work is always the same; improves orchestration between parties Product Marketing Debt: Things are just simply going to eventually slow down Too many tools? Use depends on purpose and internal/external communication Accountability: CPO is responsible for templates documenting workflow/process Outcome/Result: Software adopted by existing customers should be measured Links: Sergey Sundukovskiy on LinkedIn Sergey Sundukovskiy's Email SalesMsg AMP 245: Developing Editorial Workflows and Content Creation Processes That Make Awesome Content Possible With Justin Zimmerman From Salesmsg InVision TryMyUI HubSpot Intercom Jira Asana ClickUp Confluence Ben Sailer on LinkedIn CoSchedule Quotes from Sergey Sundukovskiy: “We look at product management in four stages. It's the ideation, collaboration, construction, and transition.” “The improvement in repeatability as well as the work orchestration between multiple parties is always the same.” “At SalesMsg, product marketing is focused on existing customers, and marketing all together is focused on prospects and leads.” “Execution on the product marketing side becomes a competitive advantage.”
The Chief Product Officer (CPO) role is still a fairly new role. I get asked quite often where product management should sit within an organization. Historically, it has typically reported up through either marketing or technology, but more and more, organizations are realizing the value of having a product leader at the executive level, having a seat at the c-suite table when all important decisions are being made. The CPO is often that executive. In this episode, Navya Rehani Gupta, Chief Product Officer at Peek.com, shares her experiences in and insights about the important CPO role.
Chief Product Officer (CPO) is one of the newer functions within an organization as more and more companies aim to be product-led. How can a product leader earn that title? In this session, Products That Count Sr Product Manager, Andy Shore, and fmr Plantronics, Google, Logitech, now Products That Count CPO, Renee Niemi, sit down for a fireside chat to discuss what product managers and leaders can do to put themselves on the path to the C-Suite.
If you ask Jeetu Patel about the nature of success, he'll tell you that “no one is entirely self-made.” And he'll be quick to point out all the times that friends and mentors sustained, encouraged, and inspired him as he grew into positions of leadership at innovative companies like Doculabs, EMC, Box, and now, Cisco—where, as SVP and GM of Security and Collaboration, he's taking on the mission to transform the company around SaaS offerings that break down geographical barriers and improve access to opportunity for people around the world.But as we often highlight on Breakthrough Builders, opportunity has a strong tendency to gravitate toward grit and curiosity—personal characteristics that are as much a part of Jeetu's story as his gratitude. In his talk with Jesse, hear how Jeetu pursued a new family legacy in the US after leaving unsafe conditions in his childhood home of Mumbai, India. You'll hear how he first became a business owner with a loan secured more by passion than means, why he left that role after seventeen years for a position where he was expected to learn as much as lead, and how his unique path prepared him to harmonize the often-competing disciplines of privacy and product development at Cisco. Throughout the episode, Jeetu offers a compelling case for why unheard voices need to be amplified, why titles should stay out of the room when product ideas are being debated, and why empathy is now the ultimate driver of business success.Guest BioJeetu Patel is Cisco's Senior Vice President and General Manager of Security and Collaboration. He leverages a diverse set of capabilities to lead the strategy and development for these businesses while helping to redefine Cisco's SaaS business and strategy around differentiated products that diverge in the way they're conceived, built, priced, packaged and sold.Prior to joining Cisco, Jeetu was the Chief Product Officer (CPO) and Chief Strategy Officer (CSO) at Box, a role he pioneered. He transformed Box from a single product application to a multi-product platform used by 100K customers representing 69% of the Fortune 500. Before joining Box, Jeetu was General Manager and Chief Executive of EMC's newly acquired Syncplicity business unit and President of Doculabs, a research and advisory firm co-owned by Forrester Research.
