He has been President of the RIMS Rocky Mountain Chapter since 2023. In 2025, he was named the Volunteer of the Year. A link to his profile in the Awards Edition of RIMS Risk Management magazine is in the show notes. [4:24] Justin is stoked that Neil is joining us on RIMScast to discuss his well-deserved recognition and why he shares it with many other members of the RIMS Rocky Mountain Chapter. [4:37]  We're also going to learn about his military career and how that shaped his risk career and his enthusiasm for volunteerism. [4:45] Interview! Neil Colclough, welcome to RIMScast! [5:00] Neil is incredibly proud of the RIMS 2025 Volunteer of the Year Award. [5:16] Neil continues as the President of the RIMS Rocky Mountain Chapter until September. [5:39] Neil has been in Colorado for 27 years. He left behind family, friends, and a job he loved to move to the Colorado Rocky Mountains to take advantage of the lifestyle the area offers. He wanted to be a semi-ski bum. [6:25] Neil had to learn to ski in the military. He fell in love with the sport. He landed a job on Vail Mountain. He skied over 100 days a year for several years when he lived in Vail. [6:51] Neil is from Stoke-on-Trent, England. As a kid, he wanted to be a soldier. He joined the Royal Marines for six years and travelled the world. He saw communities outside of the resort areas. [8:10] Neil believes his risk management career grew out of his service. Public service is managing risk, considering what could go wrong at all times, and having a Plan B and C for those instances. It's also not being risk-averse. [8:33] His military service left him with the mindset that you can do anything, you just have to put the effort into doing it properly and give it your best shot. They all kept themselves incredibly fit. The risk of not being fit didn't just impact you; it impacted the guys you worked with. [9:17] Neil enjoyed the fitness routine in the military, going for morning runs with his closest friends. [9:34] If Neil hadn't moved to Colorado, he probably would have stayed home. He was focused on moving to the Rocky Mountains. He had been to the U.S. about 10 times before he moved. He moved in 1998. [11:11] Neil says he is of the generation who “fell into” the risk management industry, versus going to school for a risk management degree. He was dragged reluctantly into risk management. [11:28] Neil was asked four times to fill a new role in the corporate headquarters of Vail Resorts. He didn't want to leave Vail, but he liked the person hiring him, and the offer made sense, so he joined the corporate office and did not look back. RIMS membership came with that job. [11:58] At the time, Neil had no idea what RIMS was. He joined the Rocky Mountain Chapter in early 2008. He's been a member of the chapter since then. He attended programming and social events. He progressed in the chapter. [12:14] The operational experience he had gained in the military and from running the Security Team at Vail Mountain fed into the risk management function. It gives him a bit of a leg up when it comes to solving issues. His experience adds credibility with his internal clients today. [12:40] Neil's career has been a natural progression. He loves his job. He loves the people he does it for. It's like a hobby. He's genuinely interested in it. [13:00] Neil loves being in the RIMS Rocky Mountain Chapter as a whole. He joined the board in 2018 with Incoming President Peggy Miller and Past President Emily Bloedel. The board was a great group of people. They have great, respectful discussions. There's no negativity. [13:49] As long as Neil has been a member of the chapter, that has always been the case. He says the board feels proud to be part of the chapter and to have a positive impact.  [14:09] Justin mentions that Emily Bloedel was a RIMS Rising Star recently. Peggy Miller is with Kroenke Sports & Entertainment. Justin met Peggy at the RIMS ERM Conference in Denver. Neil ran the DEI education session at ERM, and he did a great job. [14:52] Neil says Emily Buckley is also on the board. They have a great pipeline of leadership to look forward to, and the future is super bright. [14:58] Justin mentions there's a lot of talent in Colorado. Emily Buckley was a guest on RIMScast last year for Specialized Bicycles on bicycle safety. Justin says, if you're a risk professional looking for a place to move, start with Colorado and look up Neil!  [15:33] DE&I is a passion for Neil. He's super connected to it. Justin and Neil discuss whether it's helpful to speak the words Diversity, Equity, & Inclusion for people who may be less committed. [16:53] You might lean on Inclusion a little more to help people understand that this is about making sure that everybody has the same opportunities. [17:22] Neil is the RIMS Volunteer of the Year. The award used to be called the Heart of RIMS Award, but was rebranded to be more specific. [17:57] Neil thinks that all RIMS chapters should have the succession of vice presidents and presidents built into their bylaws as the Rocky Mountain Chapter does. A lot of presidents have sat on boards for many years, and they struggle to recruit people to become board members. [18:22] Volunteerism takes effort. If you're taking an hour out of your day to do a podcast to talk about yourself, then you've got to make up that time somewhere else. If you're doing chapter work during business hours, you have to have an employer who supports what you're doing. [18:54] You have to have family behind you, that gets it. You can't just disregard your daily job duties in favor of volunteerism. [19:09] Neil says, encourage chances to have an intentional succession plan for chapter leadership. Encourage people early in their careers to serve on boards, become leaders of the chapter, and shape the future. [19:40] If you've just graduated from an RMI program and joined the workforce, you may not think you're qualified to lead on a chapter board. Neil says, we want to hear from the future of the industry so we who are in it can prioritize what is going to be meaningful after we've gone. [20:03] Reach out to younger people, let them know what a safe space it is, and give them the opportunity to serve. [20:12] RIMS Events!

[22:23] Neil joined Sage Hospitality Group in January 2025. He had spoken with his new boss about his role at the RIMS Rocky Mountain Chapter, and she was super supportive. [22:48] The whole company understands the importance of risk management. They see the value of having me remain involved with RIMS at the chapter and society level. It was an easy conversation to have. [23:18] Neil is over a total of seven people at Sage. He says this is rare except in well-established, large companies. This is Neil's first experience with anything that comes close to that. [23:56] Two of Neil's team have been with the company for over 30 years. Another has been with the company for 11 years. That speaks volumes to Neil about the company culture and the investment the company makes in risk management. It was a huge attraction to Neil. [24:18] Neil was previously with Inspirato, another hospitality group. It was high-end luxury travel where you would subscribe to a membership and get access to a portfolio of homes. One client was mad that they didn't inform them that it was hurricane season when they were traveling. [26:06] When Neil moved to Colorado, he went to a job fair for Vail Resorts in Denver. He was offered two jobs, one as a ski instructor and one with the Security Department, a seasonal job. [26:24] When Neil showed up for work on his first day of training for the Security Team, it was October 19, 1998, the day of the terrorist arson at the Two Elk Lodge, the largest act of eco-terrorism in North America at the time. [26:42] Neil's job went from being seasonal to year-round. The department grew. He was promoted a couple of times fairly quickly. He had never ridden a snowmobile, but they put him on it, and he rode 400 miles a week on a snowmobile. [27:12] With this experience, Neil understands the principles of emergency preparedness and response. He worked closely with the public sector in Vail and Eagle County. The local government and the ski resort have to work closely together to align in the same direction. [27:31] Neil says they did some good stuff over the years to mitigate potential risks. A wildland fire was a big concern. They did mass-casualty incident drills with Vail Ski Patrol and the town of Vail. [27:59] Neil lives east of Boulder. His office is in Denver. [28:34] Neil says the award is not just one person. It takes a village. It takes a lot of people who think like you and have the same heart to make good things happen. He's never volunteered at any event where he's walked away feeling down and thinking it was a waste of time. [29:00] A little can go a long way. If you're thinking about ways to volunteer in the risk and insurance industry, the local RIMS chapter is a great vehicle to do that. You can contact Neil, and he can introduce you to some people he has networked with around the country. [29:24] Volunteerism is so rewarding. It takes effort. You can't just go to meetings. You have to put pen to paper in between meetings to take action on what you say you're going to do. Neil battles constantly with the feeling that he's not fully delivering on what he should be. [29:45] You have to give yourself a little bit of grace when it comes to those times. People's capacity ebbs and flows. Surround yourself with people who can pick up the slack when you have to step into your day job a little bit more at certain times. [30:00] When you're juggling the balls, just don't drop the glass ones! Keep your responsibilities prioritized. [30:13] Neil talks of DE&I sponsorship, advocating for somebody who's not in the group. One way to do that is to ask if you can take a young professional along with you when you're invited somewhere as a risk professional. Request that someone be at a meeting who wasn't invited. [31:02] That can create opportunities and give that person experience. It's a simple act with a potentially massive impact. [31:15] Neil, it's been a real pleasure to speak with you again! I appreciate all your insight here. Congratulations again on being named the RIMS 2025 Volunteer of the Year. We've got a link for the RIMS Rocky Mountain Chapter in the notes. Locals, if you want to join, give Neil a shout! [31:37] Neil says, I'll get back to you eventually!

Deniz Ari: Security Team Breakdown—The Devastating Impact of Poor Product Ownership Read the full Show Notes and search through the world's largest audio library on Agile and Scrum directly on the Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast website: http://bit.ly/SMTP_ShowNotes. Deniz shares the story of a security project with a team of eight experienced, senior engineers working on mission-critical systems. Despite initial motivation and clear architectural solutions, the team soon exhibited signs of negative behavior including complaints and criticism. The root cause traced back to frequent Product Owner changes—several within less than a year—and poor client management. Instead of shielding the team, the PO directly transferred stress from clients to the team, demanded overtime, and created unnecessary tension by bringing unfiltered conflicts to the team and requesting excessive details. Deniz emphasizes the importance of avoiding unnecessary tensions, being more political when necessary to protect the team, and being mindful of tone in written communications. Self-reflection Question: In what ways might you be failing to set proper boundaries in your role, and how could establishing clearer limits improve both your effectiveness and your team's performance? Featured Book of the Week: Boundaries by Henrik Cloud Deniz recommends "Boundaries" by Henrik Cloud, a book about human relationships and personal limitations. The book addresses crucial questions: Does your life feel out of control? Do you keep saying yes to everyone? Are you taking responsibility for others' feelings and problems? Have you forgotten your own limitations? Deniz explains how this book helped them learn to say "no" while still considering others' realities and feelings, and understanding why we often struggle with setting boundaries. Deniz highlights that being a Scrum Master involves much more than just processes and methods—it requires healthy personal boundaries. [Scrum Master Toolbox Podcast Recommends]

News with Sean 1-29-2025 …What is the Internal Security Team?

He's been the detachment commander for the St Paul RCMP for only 6 months and already has made a strong impression with the community.  Staff Seargent, Dennis Silliker is making himself one of the most accessible members this area has seen.  And, is even up for sharing some of his Completely Interesting stories with a local podcast.  An RCMP for over 18 years, that includes stints with the RCMP Musical Ride and part of the Prime Minister's Security Team, there's no shortage of those.  Dennis brings some of those candid stories and his commitment to improving the RCMP's presence to this podcast!

We're thrilled to have Frank Duff on to discuss threat-informed defense. As one of the MITRE folks that helped create MITRE ATT&CK and ATT&CK evaluations, Frank has been working on how best to define and communicate attack language for many years now. The company he founded, Tidal Cyber is in a unique position to both leverage what MITRE has built with ATT&CK and help enterprises operationalize it. Segment Resources: Tidal Cyber website Tidal Cyber Community Edition We're a fan of hacker lore and history here at Security Weekly. In fact, Paul's Security Weekly has interviewed some of the most notable (and notorious) personalities from both the business side of the industry and the hacker community. We're very excited to share this new effort to document hacker history through in-person interviews. The series is called "Where Warlocks Stay Up Late", and is the creation of Nathan Sportsman and other folks at Praetorian. The timing is crucial, as a lot of the original hackers and tech innovators are getting older, and we've already lost a few. References: Check out the Where the Warlocks Stay Up Late website and subscribe to get notified of each episode as it is released Check out the anthropological hacker map and relive your misspent youth! In this latest Enterprise Security Weekly episode, we explored some significant cybersecurity developments, starting with Veracode's acquisition of Phylum, a company specializing in detecting malicious code in open-source libraries. The acquisition sparked speculation that it might be more about Veracode staying relevant in a rapidly evolving market rather than a strategic growth move, especially given the rising influence of AI-driven code analysis tools. We also covered One Password's acquisition of a UK-based shadow IT detection firm, raising interesting questions about their expansion into access management. Notably, the deal involved celebrity investors like Matthew McConaughey and Ashton Kutcher, suggesting a trend where Hollywood influence intersects with cybersecurity branding. A major highlight was the Cyber Haven breach, where a compromised Chrome extension update led to stolen credentials. The attack was executed through a phishing campaign disguised as a Google policy violation warning. To their credit, Cyber Haven responded swiftly, pulling the extension within two hours and maintaining transparency throughout. This incident underscored broader concerns around the poor security of browser extensions, an issue that continues to be exploited due to lax marketplace oversight. We also reflected on Corey Doctorow's concept of "Enshittification," critiquing platforms that prioritize profit and engagement metrics over genuine user experiences. His decision to disable vanity metrics resonated, especially considering how often engagement numbers are inflated in corporate settings. The episode wrapped with a thoughtful discussion on how CISOs can say "no" more effectively, emphasizing "yes, but" strategies and the importance of consistency. We also debated the usability frustrations of "magic links" for authentication, arguing that simpler alternatives like passkeys or multi-factor codes could offer a better balance between security and convenience.

Guest: Kush Sharma, Director Municipal Modernization & Partnerships, Municipal Information Systems Association, Ontario (MISA Ontario)On LinkedIn | https://www.linkedin.com/in/kush-sharma-9bb875a/____________________________Host: Sean Martin, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine [@ITSPmagazine] and Host of Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast [@RedefiningCyber]On ITSPmagazine | https://www.itspmagazine.com/sean-martin___________________________Episode NotesIn the third and final installment of the series titled "Building a CISO Office: Mastering Enterprise Risk Management and Aligning Cybersecurity with Business Goals," Sean Martin continues his compelling conversation with Kush Sharma. This episode focuses on the critical aspects of team dynamics, project management, and stakeholder engagement in the realm of cybersecurity.Kush Sharma elaborates on the importance of establishing a well-structured and communicated vision for security operations within an organization. He emphasizes the necessity of setting expectations with security teams before any major project initiation. According to Sharma, transparency is vital. Security leaders must candidly discuss with their teams that not every decision will tip in their favor, but their role is to advocate for security while being adaptable to business needs. He stresses the importance of documenting and following up on risk mitigation measures even if they aren't implemented immediately.Sharma also sheds light on the concept of integrating business and security functions more seamlessly. He proposes not just embedding security into business but also bringing business personnel into the security fold. By having business unit members work within security teams temporarily, organizations can build a robust line of communication and mutual understanding. This cross-functional approach creates internal champions for security measures and helps significantly cut costs as internal personnel generally have lower operational costs compared to external consultants.A significant portion of the episode revolves around the nuanced engagement with different stakeholders, particularly at the executive level. Sharma advises CISOs to view themselves as peers to other C-suite executives, prepared to defend their positions and decisions vigorously. It's crucial for CISOs to maintain this executive-level mindset and openly communicate the broader business implications of security decisions. Sharma highlights that making a business case for security and showing tangible returns on investment can secure better funding and support from the executive team, leading to more substantial investments in long-term security measures.Sean Martin wraps up the episode by touching on the importance of storytelling in cybersecurity. By translating technical achievements and risk mitigation efforts into relatable stories, CISOs can effectively communicate the value of their work across the organization. These narratives help ensure security remains a priority in business strategies and operations, fostering an environment where security considerations are integral to planning and executing new initiatives.In conclusion, the episode provides essential insights for current and aspiring CISOs on navigating the complexities of internal communications, leadership, and strategic planning in cybersecurity. Both Kush Sharma and Sean Martin offer practical advice and strategies that can help elevate the role of security within any organization, thereby protecting its infrastructure and supporting its growth objectives.___________________________SponsorsImperva: https://itspm.ag/imperva277117988LevelBlue: https://itspm.ag/attcybersecurity-3jdk3___________________________Watch this and other videos on ITSPmagazine's YouTube ChannelRedefining CyberSecurity Podcast with Sean Martin, CISSP playlist:

In this episode of The New CISO, host Steve is joined by returning guest Sándor Incze, CISO at CM.com.In part two of his interview, Sándor shares his strategies for boosting team productivity. As a long-time security leader, Sándor understands how to get the best out of his team. Listen to the episode to learn more about the difference between nervousness and excitement, the benefits of his CM model, and how running a cyber security staff is like soccer.Listen to Steve and Sándor discuss how software development is like an F1 race and how to make a candidate confident during an interview:In the Interview (1:33)Sándor and Steve discuss high-stakes, stressful job interviews and how they can make candidates nervous. Although some security professionals are proud to make someone fumble during the interview process, Sándor and Steve share how to bring out the best version of someone to see if they are the right fit.CM Squared (8:56)Sándor shares the CM (or CM Squared) Model, a document he uses when auditing different companies' security systems to find their faults. With this model, Sándor can simplify technologies for business leaders and enhance their protections.Like an F1 Race (15:30)Like F1 racing, Sándor believes software development is a team effort. To help emphasize this metaphor, Sándor explains how different members of security teams mirror the roles of a racing crew.Team Strategies (19:49)When Sándor evaluates his role as a leader, he thinks of his staff as a soccer team. His team needs to score “goals,” and as their “coach,” it is his job to guide them.He also shares his motto, “Do something you like, do something you're good at, and contribute.”The New CISO (27:12)To Sándor, being a new CISO means “keep it simple.” Making things too complicated does not stop cyber crimes. However, learning to talk to each other does.Links:LinkedIn

We discuss:The song we feature during the recap: Love You With All My Heart by Crush.Soo Cheol calls Hyun-Woo “maehyeong” 매형, which means older sister's husband.How Hae-in loses her will to live when Hyun-woo admits that he wanted a divorce.How Hyun-woo decides to make Hae-in hate him so that she has a reason to live.How Hyun-woo wants to stay by Hae-in's side even if it means being the subject of her rage, humiliation and hatred; he has powerful reasons for wanting to be by her side.Both Hae-in and Hyun-woo are left wondering if everything the other person said and promised was a lie.Through the flashback of the marriage proposal, we can piece together how our couple got engaged, broke up, got back together, and finally married.How we held our breaths when Hyun-woo discovers that Hae-in has lost her memory of Germany and Hyun-woo wanting a divorce, which means Hae-in has to relive this trauma TWICE.The crazy divorce settlement scene with Song Joong-ki as Vincenzo Cassano.How Hae-in realizes that Hyun-woo was suffering during their marriage; she learns this when she overhears Hyun-woo at Grandma's Home Cooking restaurant.The Chairman wants Hyun-woo fired by Hae-in defends him from the Security Team.How Hyun-woo followed David Yoon when he was following Hae-in. We see a very different Hyun-woo in that scene. We think we will see a very different Hyun-woo from now on.How David Yoon pressured Soo-cheol to sign the resort deal with David Yoon, and then the deal went south, giving Pione Investment the chance to swoop in and pretend to save the deal.But when the investors pull out and the Chairman's embezzlement investigation comes out, David Yoon ends up with control over Queens Group.Meanwhile, Hae-in turns down the Hercyna deal and rejects David Yoon's offer (again) to replace Hyun-woo.We feel sorry for Soo-cheol, whose wife double-crossed him, left him, and took their son to New York.Hyun-woo and Aunt Beom-ja have definitive proof, through a DNA test, that David Yoon is Moh Sul-hee's son!Moh Sul-hee and David Yoon have been playing the long game. Moh Sul-hee endeared herself to the Chairman, whom she tricked into giving her power of attorney, and then poisoned.How the Hong family has been kicked out of their own company and have fled to Yongdu-ri.The hilarious scenes involving Hyun-woo, Hae-in and their secretaries.More Crash Landing On You references and tie-ins!The Koreans' seeming obsession with the Myers Briggs Personality Types.The K Drama elements in this show, including all the crying, the epic umbrella scene involving Hyun-woo and Hae-in, more connections from the past between Hae-in and David Yoon, all the product placements, and Hyun-woo saving Hae-in from an oncoming truck.Our new, #39 product placement - cameos!Our predictions for the end of the show!We learn more about the amazing Park Sung-hoon!ReferencesPark Sung-hoon on WikipediaMyers Briggs Personality TypesCrush on WikipediaLove You With All My Heart by Crush on YouTube

On Today's episode I sit down with a former colleague of mine Heath Taylor where he uses his extensive background in information security and cybersecurity from his time in the US Navy and at Live Nation Ticketmaster. He stresses the need for organizations to adopt a proactive approach to identify and respond to potential threats. He also underscores the complexity of operations at large organizations and the significance of cybersecurity within an organization. Throughout the conversation, the significance of finding the right people for a company is highlighted, with a specific focus on clear communication and an analytical mindset in the field of cybersecurity. We also discuss our approach to effective leadership and career progression. Communication emerges as a central theme, with a particular focus on its importance in articulating cybersecurity issues and potential impacts on business operations. The discussion touches on the challenges associated with security posture and inventory management within organizations. We also delve into the complexities of building versus buying cybersecurity solutions, addressing issues such as fake accounts, account takeovers, compromised websites, shared passwords, and the need for improved security measures. Never being satisfied, we even touch on security awareness, secure applications, supply chain attacks, and the need for bug bounty programs as essential components of a robust cybersecurity strategy. Collaboration and partnerships among teams are emphasized as a means to prevent fraudulent activity.    Heath Taylor: https://www.linkedin.com/in/heath-taylor-87519037/   "Heath Taylor is a cybersecurity leader with a wealth of experience in threat intelligence and a proven track record of managing all aspects of cybersecurity for large enterprises. Heath is a seasoned expert in the field and has built and led highly effective technical security teams, delivering industry-leading incident response, corporate security, governance, risk and compliance (GRC), and product security.

This episode features all things security with our guest, Laura Bell Main, CEO & Founder @ SafeStack. She shares valuable strategies for building your security team & tool stack. We cover why security is a human problem based on human motivations, prioritization conversations for assessing risks, considerations for early-stage security teams, how behavior change & decision making impact security, and considerations for companies in the “messy middle” phase. Laura also addresses communicating about security in terms of tech debt, recommendations for incorporating security monitoring tools, how to measure those tools' ROI, and more.ABOUT LAURA BELL MAINWith over twenty years of experience in software development and information security, Laura Bell Main (@lady_nerd) specialises in bringing security into organisations of every shape and size.She is the co-founder and CEO of SafeStack, an online education platform offering flexible, high-quality, and people-focused secure development training for fast-moving companies, with a focus on building security skills, practices, and culture across the entire engineering team.Laura is an experienced conference speaker, trainer, and regular panel member, and has spoken at a range of events such as BlackHat USA, Velocity, and OSCON on the subjects of privacy, covert communications, agile security, and security mindset.She is also the co-author of Agile Application Security and Security for Everyone."The most important thing that we forget to tell folks when they're starting out in security is most of our tooling is about being more effective and efficient. It's not about doing something you can't do yourself. Security isn't about a magic box. I wish it was, it would be a lot easier if we could just buy a magic box. Done! Off we go to the beach, but what we have is a really human problem.”- Laura Bell Main    Join us at ELC Annual 2023!ELC Annual is our flagship conference for engineering leaders.

Alana Forrest started her 29-year public service career in 1983 at the Palo Alto Police Department and rose through the ranks to Lieutenant. Forrest was promoted to the position of Captain by joining the Los Gatos/Monte Sereno Police Department in 2000 and retired in 2012. She has spent the last 11 years in corporate security and currently leads Global Safety and Security at Intuit. She is a proud co-founder of the California Women Leaders in Law Enforcement Symposium, which began as a local partnership in 2006 and is now endorsed by multiple law enforcement associations with a national following.Forrest joins host Dr. Marisa Randazzo to discuss:The impact of mentoring on her career and the motivation behind starting the Women Leaders in Law Enforcement Foundation.The role of storytelling and connecting on a personal level to demonstrate security's value to other areas of an organization.Advice for women/girls pursuing a career in protection.Key takeaways:[08:38] Marisa Randazzo: I just think it's so important — the value of mentorship. But it's often difficult to figure out how to get started, so the details that you're sharing here are very helpful. I want to ask a follow-up question about the California Women Leaders in Law Enforcement Symposium. Who is it open to? [09:14] Alana: It's open to anyone. It's not just women but anyone in active law enforcement and retirees can also attend. We're trying to just open up the floodgates and allow anybody who wants to come to join us in California every year. It's been one of the proudest accomplishments in my career — to establish this and have it still be so successful.[15:53] Marisa Randazzo: It sounds like what your foundation now your symposium did was give people up a place for that colleagueship, especially from those smaller departments when they didn't have it in-house necessarily but they could still access. That same level of connection and advice and commiseration just from outside their department but still within the industry. That's phenomenal.[16:16] Alana: Yeah, absolutely and even now unfortunately in the 2000s and here we are in 2023 — we still hear similar stories of challenges that we heard in the 1980s and 90s. So it really does provide an opportunity and a forum for people who are really struggling to get some much needed support. It's kind of sad that we are still having some of these conversations. But at least there's support there.[17:53] Alana: One of the things that I've really tried to do when I first enter any organization is build those relationships and find the right people to talk to — who's in charge of what but also who are the team players that have leadership qualities that you can tell are the people that get things done or has the leadership's ear. Seek out those people to get by your side and have lunch or coffee and have a discussion — what are your pain points with global safety and security or at the security team? [20:51] Alana: I've been in where data really drives the conversation and so I think any sort of data points or storytelling [help in displaying value]. Tell the stories to let people know exactly what's going On. As people started to come back to work I would take people through our Global Security Operations Center and let them see what we do because people really don't have ah an understanding of how much work we do to keep them safe behind the scenes. So when they walk into that room and they see all the monitors and they see all the people and all the activity and I explain what we're doing and how we keep them safe, that is a huge win. [33:36] Alana: You know one of the things I'll emphasize is again — finding those mentors and those champions and building relationships is so important. I didn't get to any promotion or any position in my private sector career without the benefit of a relationship or a connection that I cultivated. And also just being willing to be helpful to anyone who reaches out for questions.
