The Blind Spot

Z Cyber

The Blind Spot Hosted by Jason Lee, Managing Director at Z Cyber Security teams aren't short on findings. The hard part is turning those findings into decisions the business can actually act on, fund, and own. The Blind Spot is a cybersecurity podcast built around what happens after risk becomes visible. Not the audit checklist. Not the scan results. The judgment calls, translation gaps, and remediation work that determine whether risk actually changes. Each episode is a practitioner conversation with CISOs, executives, board advisors, operators, and risk leaders working at the intersection of cybersecurity, business decisions, and accountability. We cover boardroom communication, AI governance, healthcare security, cyber insurance, and what it actually takes to go from assessment to action. Every episode closes the same way: "What is the one thing you wish the other side of the conversation understood?" New episodes every two weeks.

    The Translation Gap: Why Boards and CISOs Talk Past Each Other

    Boards and CISOs are often on two different planes. In the first episode of The Blind Spot, Jason Lee sits down with Antonio Bovoso, cybersecurity executive and author of The Boardroom CISO, on why security and the board talk past each other and how to close the gap. They get into reframing risk as enablement, tying cyber to how the business actually makes money, cutting vanity metrics and the museum-quality deck, and where cyber liability really lands. About the host Jason Lee is Managing Director at Z Cyber. For more than 20 years he has worked the part most people skip past: what happens after the risk is visible, across infrastructure, AI, and GRC. About the guest Antonio Bovoso is a cybersecurity executive with roughly 25 years in the field, founder and managing principal of Consiro Advisory, and author of The Boardroom CISO. He advises biotech companies and cybersecurity startups, and wrote the board-readiness playbook he wishes he had early in his career.
