In this episode of the Security Insider podcast, we’re joined by Theresa Payton—a trailblazer in technology and cybersecurity and the first female White House Chief Information Officer under President George W. Bush Jr. As CEO and chief advisor at Fortalice, and a trusted voice for Fortune 500 boards and major news networks—plus a stint on CBS’s reality series Hunted—Theresa is renowned for translating complex cyber risk into practical action. Her presentation, delivered at Cybercon in Melbourne recently, titled Leading with Purpose: Lessons from the White House to Your House, distils frontline insights on resilience, values-based decision-making, and safeguarding people and data in the age of AI. We’ll dig into how to harness AI’s upside while defending against modern cybercriminal tradecraft—at work and at home.
