ABOUT THIS EPISODE
In this episode, Curtis Simpson, CSO at Gambit Security, explains how Gambit moves organizations past that guesswork by continuously mapping a company's minimally viable business capabilities and validating whether the infrastructure, backups, and recovery processes behind them can actually deliver within the timeframes the business requires. Joining him to pressure-test the approach are Howard Holton, former CEO of GigaOm, and Adam Palmer, CISO at First Hawaiian Bank.
Want to know:- Why do so many disaster recovery plans hold up on paper but fail the moment they're actually needed?
- What's the real difference between having something backed up and proving you can recover it?
- What is a "minimally viable company," and how much of mapping it is automated versus built on human input?
- What happens when your infrastructure fails today, versus what Gambit's roadmap has planned for tomorrow?
- What should actually land in front of your CEO or board to demonstrate recovery confidence?
- Is there an organization too small, or too mature, to get value from this kind of resilience assessment?
- Why does decades-old infrastructure like the mainframe often cause the longest, most damaging outages?
- Why is now the moment for security to finally move from a "trust but trust" model to "trust but verify" on recoverability?
