  • Your Most Valuable Skills Aren’t Technical
    2026/04/23
    Cybersecurity debates tend to center on tools, frameworks, and threats. But Rob Knoblauch has built a 25-year career in global security leadership by focusing on the soft skills that determine whether a CISO survives, thrives, or burns out. In this episode of The New CISO, Rob joins Steve Moore to trace the through-line from running a multi-node BBS as a kid to serving as Deputy CISO of one of the world’s largest banks — and the career lessons he’s carried through every chapter.Rob’s path wasn’t engineered. It began with a VIC-20, a love of video games, and a side passion for DJing that eventually clinched his first big bank interview. Running a BBS taught him identity management, patching, and infrastructure long before those were industry terms, and responding to the Melissa and “I Love You” outbreaks as a twenty-something Toronto Stock Exchange analyst launched his pivot into information security.The conversation turns to leading at scale. Rob walks through the three mentors who shaped him — “the teacher” who grounded him in fundamentals at Bank of Montreal, “the coach” who taught him the collaborative nature of global operations at Scotiabank, and “the general” who sharpened his leadership edge. He frames these not as phases but as lenses he still applies situationally today.Rob and Steve dig into incident response — from taking down Canada’s first phishing site with no playbook to running tabletop exercises at the board, C-suite, and technical levels. Rob argues every organization needs a breach coach and that communications is the biggest make-or-break factor in a breach. He also offers a candid take on CISO politics — short tenures, CIO friction, and why trust with your boss matters more than being right.The episode closes with Rob’s take on why this may be the best time in history to be a new CISO. AI is stripping away the commodity work that defined earlier generations of the role, leaving more room for strategy, leadership, and real influence. For anyone stepping into the seat, Rob’s message is simple: the most valuable skills aren’t technical at all.Key Topics• Rob’s path from a VIC-20 and a grade-school BBS to the CISO seat• How DJing as “Robbie Knobs” clinched his first big bank interview — and why “notables” matter on a resume• Taking down the first phishing website in Canada with no playbook and a lot of cold calls• The three mentors who shaped his leadership: the teacher, the coach, and the general• Why tabletop exercises at the board, C-suite, and technical levels each matter — and how they differ• The case for engaging a breach coach before a breach happens, not during one• Why communications is the single biggest make-or-break factor in incident response• How AI is reshaping the CISO role by stripping away commodity workGuestRob Knoblauch — Chief Information Security OfficerRob Knoblauch is a seasoned CISO with 25+ years of global information security leadership.

  • From Chef to CISO: Unlocking the Recipe to Security Leadership
    2026/04/02
    What does sharpening a knife over a case of onions have to do with incident response? For Myke Lyons, CISO at Cribl, the answer is everything. Myke trained at the Culinary Institute of America — learning speed and accuracy under the clock of a professional kitchen — before a summer IT job in Manhattan set him on an entirely different path. In this episode of The New CISO, host Steve Moore traces that journey and the surprising parallels between culinary craft and security leadership.The conversation moves through a career that evolved organically: a summer job moving refrigerator-sized printers in a Manhattan ad agency, a crash course in executive white-glove IT support, a breakthrough moment finally cracking subnetting, and a slow expansion from NOC operator to global security leader. Myke credits the kitchen — its insistence on precision and calm under fire — for instilling an operator's mindset that still defines how he leads through incidents today.Mentorship, both formal and accidental, threads through Myke's story. A curmudgeonly colleague who threatened to "replace him with a script" taught him the value of continuous improvement. A trusted mentor reframed the CISO's role with a single line about house fires and lock changes. And years in executive IT support gave Myke an early education in empathy and knowing when not to fix what wasn't asked.Myke and Steve examine a vendor incident where a product leader's dismissive response to a forensics question destroyed credibility with hundreds of customers. The lesson: saying "I don't know, but we'll find out" is not a weakness — it is the most powerful tool a leader has. The same insight applies to M&A due diligence, where reframing technical conversations as expectation-setting exercises turns adversarial interviews into collaborative ones.For Myke, the new CISO is defined by empathy and culture. Know your audience. Think like your customers. Communicate policy changes as explanations, not mandates. Find your internal advocates and invest in them before you need them. The recipe for great security leadership is less about technology than it is about people — and that lesson translates perfectly from the kitchen to the boardroom.Key Topics• Career pivots: from culinary school to IT and cybersecurity• Speed, accuracy, and craft — what kitchen discipline teaches security professionals• Building an operator's mindset and staying calm during security incidents• White-glove executive IT support and the patience, precision, and empathy it develops• Mentorship — formal and accidental — and the lessons that only land in retrospect• The dangers of filling silence with false confidence vs. the power of saying "I don't know"• Crisis communication best practices and what not to do during a vendor incident call• Managing M&A security due diligence with low-emotion, expectation-setting conversations• Building security culture through empathy, clear communication, and internal advocates• Telemetry, log management, and Cribl's role as the data engine for IT and security Guest BioMyke Lyons is the Chief Information Security Officer at Cribl, the AI platform for telemetry trusted by organizations worldwide — including half of the Fortune 100 — to manage IT and security data at any scale.He trained at the Culinary Institute of America with aspirations of becoming a food critic — until a summer IT job in Manhattan set him on an entirely different course. Myke went on to build expertise across networking, NOC operations, and log management, holding CISO positions at Snyk and Collibra before joining Cribl in 2024.Connect with Myke on LinkedIn and learn more about Cribl at cribl.io.GET A DEMO:👉 Get a hands-on demo of the Exabeam products: https://www.exabeam.com/demo🔔 Subscribe for more product demos and cybersecurity insights!ABOUT EXABEAM:Exabeam is the leader in behavior intelligence for the agentic enterprise.

  • Architect and Firefighter: How a Modern CISO Leads in Crisis
    2026/03/12
    Alan Lucas always wanted to be an architect or a firefighter — as CISO of Worldstream and Greenhouse Datacenters, he has become both. In this episode, he joins host Steve Moore to explore leading cybersecurity at the intersection of design and crisis response.Alan traces his path from Fox-IT through a Dutch cryptocurrency exchange where he arrived post-breach to an organization under near-constant attack from nation-state threat actors. Leading a technically sophisticated but security-anxious leadership team, he learned the lasting power of transparency and directness — and his most memorable measure of success was not a technical control, but a CTO who finally slept through the night.The conversation goes deep into crisis communication. Alan and Steve discuss how the industry has matured from reflexive silence around breaches to embracing transparency as a trust-building tool, the danger of well-meaning legal edits that send customers chasing the wrong narrative, and why the CISO should hold final review over all public incident communications. He also shares his Security Champions Program, tabletop exercise design, and why knowing who to call in a crisis must be mapped out before that crisis arrives.Alan also covers his volunteer work with the DIVD, coaching ethical hackers and supporting responsible disclosure worldwide — an extension of his belief that security, done well, creates trust and enables growth for everyone.The episode closes on "bouncing forward" — the idea that true resilience means using every incident as a forcing function for improvement, not just a return to baseline. Alan frames lessons learned as the most important resilience KPI a security team can own. A masterclass in leading through both calm and chaos. Key Topics• The architect-and-firefighter mindset: building security programs while fighting live fires• Alan's career path from Fox-IT (MSSP) to post-breach CISO at a cryptocurrency exchange• Leading security post-breach — and what "sleeping well again" actually means• The unique threat landscape facing cryptocurrency companies, including nation-state adversaries• The Dutch Institute for Vulnerability Disclosure (DIVD): coordinated, ethical vulnerability disclosure worldwide• Mentoring young ethical hackers: communication, confidence, and responsible disclosure process• Crisis communication: balancing transparency with operational security during active incidents• Why legal edits to breach notifications can mislead customers and create dangerous distractions• The CISO's role as final reviewer of all incident communications• Security Champions Programs: bridging the gap between security and non-technical departments• Tabletop exercise design: running effective simulations in under an hour with non-technical staff• Writing the breach notification letter before the breach happens• Bouncing forward, not bouncing back: using lessons learned as a resilience KPI• Security as a business enabler: positioning the CISO role for organizational growth and confidenceGuest BioAlan Lucas is CISO at Worldstream and Greenhouse Datacenters, two of the Netherlands' leading cloud and data center infrastructure providers. With over a decade of cybersecurity experience, he leads security strategy for mission-critical IT and cloud environments. Prior roles include Fox-IT (MSSP) and LiteBit, a Dutch cryptocurrency exchange where he served as CISO post-breach. Alan also volunteers as a coach at the Dutch Institute for Vulnerability Disclosure (DIVD), mentoring ethical hackers and supporting responsible disclosure globally. He is passionate about security as a catalyst for innovation — and about building a safer digital society, one step at a time.LEARN MORE:👉 Connect with Alan on LinkedIn.GET A DEMO:👉 Get a hands-on demo of the Exabeam products: https://www.exabeam.com/demo🔔 Subscribe for more product demos and cybersecurity insights!ABOUT EXABEAM:Exabeam is a leader in intelligence and automation that powers security operations for the world’s smartest companies.
