Trust & Security: The Cornerstones of a Resilient Organization! With Sandeep Agarwal

Episode No: 68

In this episode of the ScaletoZero podcast, join us for an insightful conversation with cloud security and compliance expert Sandeep Agarwal as we explore the critical role of trust in building a secure environment. Discover practical tips to enhance security awareness, define security boundaries, and balance automation and manual controls.

Learnings from the podcast

  1. For organizations, alignment between Revenue Goals vs Cost vs Risk is key for success. Instead of teams working in isolation, collaborate to improve the security of the organization.
  2. Security is seen as a team of "NO". Instead of saying No, security teams should show the path to Yes for business.
  3. The most important asset in security is not the tools or processes but the people. And people consider what they observe as culture vs what’s preached. Practice security basics to set a solid foundation.
