We're joined this week by Quentyn Taylor, CISO for Canon Europe. Odds are that you might have had your hands on a Canon camera or printer at one point in your life, and if you’ve ever had a security related query about their products in Europe, it’s Quentyn’s team who you would have spoken to. That's because as well as protecting Canon, the cybersecurity team are also customer centric, which is a really interesting story.Quentyn also talks to Hazel about missing those "in person" meetings and how he's trying to overcome the virtual hurdle. Plus we discuss the skills and qualities that he looks for in his team members, and why firing the CISO immediately after a data breach is rarely the best course of action. We then end our interview as all interviews should: with a spot of cybersecurity cocktail making.Check out Quentyn's Security Insights video series here: https://www.youtube.com/results?search_query=security+insightsIn the non studio studio, Ben and Noureen fill us in on the last couple of weeks of hacker news, including what Cozy Bear have allegedly been up to.And for 'On this Day' we take the DeLorean back to 2016, to explore the story behind the Mirai botnet. We discuss the chaos that was caused when certain networked devices running Linux were turned into remotely controlled bots that were then used in large-scale network attacks. Don't miss our next episode, which is an election special! We'll be welcoming several special guests, to help us discuss where America stands with election security heading into November's general election.
