Written by George Kamide | Oct 17, 2022 9:15:00 AM

Today’s guest is Chris Russell, CISO at tZero. 

With a military background in intelligence, a storied career from the vendor side to now blockchain, Chris Russell is a self-described "nerd." And his appetite for learning shows no signs of abating, having recently enrolled in a PhD program.  In this conversation, we talk about what actionable intelligence looks like, how to translate security to non-technical audiences, and why he believes more practitioners are needed in policymaking decisions.
