As a result of the rapid move to a remote workforce, now is a golden opportunity to refine cybersecurity approaches – especially for the cloud, says Christian Toon, CISO at the international law firm, Pinsent Masons.

“The big challenge is that the main cloud providers and others keep moving the goal posts and changing how they’re configured or presenting their security configurations,” he says.

In a video interview with Information Security Media Group, Toon discusses:

• Blind spots security teams may have missed due to rapid adoption of cloud services;
• Creative methods to engage the entire organization in security programs;
• Steps to take to demonstrate your security department’s value to the business.

As CISO at London-based Pinset Masons, Toon has overall responsibility for cyber and information security. He’s a member of the Scottish Government’s National Cyber Resilience Advisory Board.
