Summary:

Recorded live at CISO XC DFW, this episode of The Professional CISO Show features three powerful conversations from leaders shaping the future of cybersecurity.

First, Sonya Wickel shares her 24-year career journey from IT generalist to CISO & CIO, offering insights on fourth-party risk, the value of empathy in leadership, and the importance of staying sharp in both IT and cybersecurity.

Then, Eric Bowerman takes us inside the complex task of securing Dallas Fort Worth International Airport — from operational technology and stakeholder management to implementing passwordless authentication and preparing for global events like FIFA.

Finally, Tera Davis explains how CyberOne has built a true community partnership with CISO XC, scaling professional services, preparing organizations for AI adoption, and fostering the next generation of security talent.
