Unsecurity Episode 255: Jo Moldenhauer, Crafting Security News Reviews, A Unique Path to Infosec

The Unsecurity Podcast returns with a truly joyful conversation with FRecure's own Jo Moldenhauer.

Jo, an Associate Information Security Consultant, is famous around the FRSecure office for her weekly security news reviews, where she meticulously compiles articles and talking points for a company-wide discussion around industry trends and snapshots.

And this couldn't have been easy to do. Jo's path to InfoSec is a recent and unique one—transitioning from dealing blackjack at casinos after most of them ceased operations during the COVID-19 pandemic. You can see how being tasked with leading a discussion to 75+ industry pros like this as a relative newcomer could be challenging—but Jo simply crushes it.

In this episode, learn about:

• Non-traditional information security career paths
• What makes "good" InfoSec news
• Why talking about industry news is important to FRSecure (and beyond)
• How vCISO engagements and risk assessments guide talking points
• The Gaming (casino) and InfoSec industry Venn Diagram (and what they can learn from each other)
• User and security awareness training, culture, and incentive ideas
