    Fred Bret-Mounet: Eating Pasta and Not Building Fort Knox

    Fred Bret-Mounet, CISO at Clarify Health Solutions, reminisces about negotiating a 25% salary increase and still being drastically underpaid, eating pasta every day, and learning that security can't just be focused on building Fort Knox. About Fred: "t all started with early e-commerce sites storing item prices client side!   A tinkerer from an early age and the constant need to feed my curiosity have been critical skills to my Information Security career.   With strong technical skills that I keep current and some amount of business acumen, I realized early that my role was not to build mini Fort Knox everywhere I went but instead teach people new skills: I am an evangelist helping organizations understand enough about the risk dimension associated to security and privacy - just as we understand financial, brand or contractual / legal dimensions in our daily activities.   I am also an enforcer! Not the one that carries a weapon - instead, I keep us honest by providing a platform for self policing. SPONSER NOTE: Support for Cloud Ace podcast comes from SANS Institute.
