Security Matters Podcast – Episode 33 now live to view

Episode 33 of the Security Matters Podcast features exclusive interviews with David Scott (managing director of national training provider Skills for Security) and Christian Have, CTO at Logpoint (the dedicated European provider of a converged cyber security platform that empowers organisations to thrive by delivering threat detection and incident response solutions).

David Scott’s role is all about directing and controlling Skills for Security’s operations, while in tandem giving strategic guidance and direction to the Board to ensure that the company achieves its key mission and objectives.

First appearing as our guest on Episode 8 back in July 2020, this time around David concentrates on bridging the skills gap and shaping security apprenticeships to meet technology and industry-induced change.

Based in Copenhagen, Christian Have joined the team at Logpoint in early 2016 having previously served as a consultant with Devoteam Consulting. Before taking up his present role with the business, Christian spent time as vice-president for solutions and integrations and then chief product officer. He currently oversees security and threat-focused research.

On Episode 33 of the Security Matters Podcast, Christian examines the Security Operations Centre environment and the impact being exerted within due to the advent of Artificial Intelligence.
