EPISODE 28: RULES WITHOUT RELATIONSHIPS CREATE REBELLION: WHY ETHICS MATTER IN CYBERSECURITY

Welcome back to season 3! To kick things off we are joined by Dr Bettina Palazzo a business ethics expert! She works with compliance managers to create a culture of integrity that focuses on the leadership and behavioural dimensions of compliance. She states that unethical organisations make people unhappy - and we couldn’t agree more. So she has dedicated her life work to helping organisations create cultures that make work fun and meaningful. Ethics is such an important subject when it comes to business because poor ethical decisions can mean poor compliance, and ultimately, can lead to poor security decisions. So how do you build a culture that is comfortable with having honest conversations about ethics? Well that’s what we will explore in this episode, Rules Without Relationships Create Rebellion: Why Ethics Matter in Cybersecurity. By the end of this episode you will Learn how to create a ‘speak up’ culture so that people can raise cybersecurity concerns with you. How to build a compliance influencer programme (and no, that does not mean trips abroad at beautiful locations surrounded by policy documentation for the gram) And how the cybersecurity team can not only be ethical role models but also give people a reason to care for the big question: why we do the things we do to protect them!
