The cybersecurity industry is gaslighting you. We spend billions on dashboards that look pretty but act like "sleep paralysis demons" for the analysts trying to use them.
In this episode, Jennifer Von Kainold (VP of Product Management at BlueVoyant) reveals the dirty secret of security engineering: the tools are built for the builders, not the defenders. Jen breaks down the "Sleep Paralysis" of modern SOCs, why the industry refuses to simplify, and how she went from a Chemistry degree to leading product strategy for a major MDR firm.
We also dismantle the panic over Quantum Computing and explain why you’re worried about Q-Day when you don’t even have an asset inventory.
