002 – Developing the Cyber Security Governance of a Nation – A Mix of IT and Strategic Planning

In this episode of Agent of Influence, Nabil talks with former Central Intelligence Agency (CIA) CISO, Robert Bigman about his 30-year career path within the agency. Recognized as a pioneer in the field of classified information protection, Bigman developed technical measures and procedures to manage the nation’s most sensitive secrets. As an information security trailblazer, he also participated in developing security measures for government computers well before the commercial industry found the Internet.

Now an independent consultant, Bigman works with the U.S. Government, foreign governments, and Fortune 50 companies, helping them both build productive cyber security programs and successfully resist attacks from the most sophisticated hackers.
