The security world has undergone a seismic shift. What a few years ago seemed impossible like having a 100% remote team without a decrease in productivity, today is a reality. But what has been the cost?
Do I have a process in place or do I have one person that’s holding a lot of the processes together? What other questions should leaders ask themselves to determine the state of security operations and the impact these are having on their teams?
In our first episode, we are joined by Lena Smart, CISO of MongoDB, an inspiring leader who enjoys building teams and models from scratch, not losing sight of one of the most pressing topics of our time: burnout.

- What Lena advises to do to overcome burnout.
- How to make security roles more accessible to minorities.
