From Mind Games to Cyber Games - trajectory to CISO role and beyond with Hilary Walton 

In this Cyber Chat, I speak to Hilary Walton - She'll explain how she transitioned from the world of Psychology to a leading figure in Cyber Security as a CISO and now at Microsoft as a Technology Strategist/vCTO.
Starting her journey in the Psychology unit of the defense force, Hilary took a leap across the pond to London where her adventure in Cyber Security began within the elite MI5's Behavioral Science Unit focusing on Security Culture. 🕵️‍♀️
Exploring various dimensions of cyber security, from the tangible aspects of physical security to the intricate layers of Information Security and beyond.
One of the Highlights you'll hear about is her experience leading the charge on security for the monumental 2012 Olympic Games 🏆, implementing robust security policies and ensuring the games were safe and secure. Plus, running a SOC in the games! Well, in fact, ever wondered what it's like to work in the adrenaline-pumping early versions of a SOC, then known as "Protect and Monitor"? Hilary's been there, diving into "bibles" of playbooks at a moment's notice to tackle threats!
Get ready to be inspired by Hilary's incredible journey from deciphering human behavior to mastering the art of cyber security!
This is Part 1 one my conversation with her.
