Kunal Agarwal sits in the dope.security Lamborghini with George Finney—CISO at University of Texas and best-selling author of Project Zero Trust—to explore why people are the most essential part of security. They discuss enabling the next generation of cyber talent through mentorship, bridging the gap between security and business operations, and reclaiming “Zero Trust” from the buzzwords. George also shares stories from his two decades at SMU, highlighting how strong leadership (and sometimes not-so-great bosses) shaped his perspective on security.
