Best advice I ever got in security. Go. You can't expect people to care about what they can't see. You have to light up
Why does the host say you need to “light up” the threat landscape for the whole organization?
threat landscape for your whole organization with data, not just the security team. You got to get them to care. If they don't understand what's real and what's actually happening in the current environment, not just theoretical, they won't have anything to react to and they won't make any changes.
It's time to begin the CISO series podcast.
Welcome to the CISO Series Podcast. My name is David Spark. I am the producer of the said CISO series. Joining me as my co-host since day one, it is Mike Johnson, the CISO of Rivian. Mike, say hello to the audience.
Hello audience. I'm glad to be here as part of

Said podcast. By the way, you know, this show is only one of five shows on the CISO series network. And I am thrilled that we're doing this one today. As always, our sponsor for today's episode, though, is Native. Turn your built-in cloud security controls into active operational defenses across AWS, Azure, Google Cloud, and OCI. We will be talking more about just that, some very cool sort of if you've got a lot of cloud instances, have one way to sort of manage all of it, Native's got a very cool solution for that. But first, I am going to do a product endorsement, Mike. Are you ready for this? Oh, an endorsement. Oh. It has nothing to do with cybersecurity. Oh, womp womp. Now, it's possible there are better products than this.
This is just the one I got. And it's more it was an eye-opening moment. So I'm going to sh I'm going to show this to Mike. People, I will describe it. It is something called a Kodak slide in scan. Have you ever gotten one of these things? A codec sli I I have no idea what that is. Do scan negatives or slides. So what you do, this is the little screen viewer here. Wha what David David, what what is a slide? Okay. For those who don't know what a slide Very good, Mike. Very good. Actually, I'm not scanning slides. Slides are these square objects or flat that had something called transparent film in them and that they were in in a positive look that you would shine lights through them and be able to project that image.
We do a lot of that now through computers. But What more importantly is that it can deal with negatives. My dad was a photographer and shot a lot of photos, developed his own film, had a dark room in the basement. And what I realized, unlike today, when we shoot photos, we look at every one of our photos. But back then, if you were developing your own film, you would create contact sheets, take a loop, magnifying glass, look at it and of maybe 50 photos you took, you might develop two or three of them. And so what I'm realizing, and my dad kept all his negatives. I bought this thing, which is great. You slide negatives into it. It shows you as a positive. You press a button, it takes a digital scan of it.
Now it's not wonderful because then also the negative isn't perfect either, but there's lots of great tools to clean these things up. But what I'm realizing as I'm going through these two giant books of three-ring binders of negatives that my dad had is I'm Seeing photos from my family and childhood that I have never seen before. Oh, that's cool. It is amazing. It's incredible. Like, I'm like, oh my, I I remember this event. I, you know, you know, so it's just some wild, it's just and time capsule. It's a complete time capsule. And the thing is, it's just as I'm going through it, it's just really kind of fascinating. Like no one in my family's seen these before. So I'm going to be able to share this with all family as well.
Oh, that's very cool. So that's why this is a heavy now. There are other products that do something similar, but if you are someone who has all these negatives sticking around, or slides for that matter, I strongly, strongly recommend either buying the Kodak sliding scan, which wasn't expensive, or any kind of scanning tool. By the way, there are other solutions to do that. They're all a giant pain in the butt or rip roaring expensive, this is a far more economical way of handling it.
