As a digital transformation leader and former CIO, I carry a healthy dose of paranoia. Call it survival instincts: Risks that can disrupt an organization from staying true to its mission and accomplishing its goals must constantly be surfaced, assessed, and either mitigated or managed.

Last year right around this time there were rumblings of the slumbering IPO market finally reawakening. It kinda did with a few big names like Arm Holdings and Instacart testing the waters, but more hope was held out for the first half of this year.

The recovery from last week’s defective content update from CrowdStrike that impacted millions of Microsoft Windows endpoints has been a significant undertaking, to say the least. The outage put enterprises, cloud services providers, and critical infrastructure providers into precarious positions, and has drawn attention to how dominant CrowdStrike’s market share has become, commanding an estimated 24% of the endpoint detection and response (EDR) market.

Small decisions about where to focus and what to do throughout your day may feel inconsequential, but their impacts accumulate.

The concept of Secure by Design, which means designing software with security built in before it leaves the drawing board, is fundamentally changing how software is developed. Software has often been designed with what’s known as “bolt-on security,” added after products are developed. But that means security is not inherent within the solution. Where there's a conjunction between the core product and a bolt-on, that’s an inflection point for an attack.
