Building Resilience in a World of Constant Threats
Megan Stifel, Chief Strategy Officer at the Institute for Security and Technology, joins Ann on this week’s episode of Afternoon Cyber Tea to discuss why cybersecurity must be treated as a shared governance responsibility, not just an IT issue. They explore how boardroom misalignment creates exposure across areas like workforce burnout, insider threats, and third-party risk, and why resilience, trust, and cross-industry collaboration, not prevention alone, are essential to managing today’s evolving cyber threats. Megan also shares insights from leading the Ransomware Task Force, highlighting the critical role of coordination and shared responsibility across sectors.
