Date:

Apr 22, 2022

Greg Touhill is one of the nation’s premier cybersecurity,
information technology and risk management leaders. As an Air Force
officer he led technology efforts in some of our nation’s most
demanding organizations including combatant commands during time of
war. He is an accomplished speaker and author and business
executive and also served as our nation’s first Chief Information
Security Officer (CISO).

Touhill is currently the director of the Carnegie Mellon
University Software Engineering Institute’s CERT Division. In this
capacity he leads one of the most highly regarded organizations in
the cybersecurity community. The CERT is a diverse group of
researchers, software engineers, security analysts and digital
intelligence specialists who work together to research
vulnerabilities, contribute to long term changes and develop
cutting-edge information and training to improve the practice of
cybersecurity.

In this OODAcast we examine Greg’s approach to leadership and
then get into:

  • Operational views of the cyber threat that can help drive
    collective action in mitigating risks.
  • Ways security leaders can continue to learn and grow
  • The CERT’s role in improving security through
    cybersecurity
  • Lessons learned in communicating security topics with non
    technical audiences (including a fantastic discussion of lessons
    from SciFi)
