Ever wonder what it takes to launch a career as a CISO? Or, consider how to succeed at the job once you get there? Come out to @cactuscon this Friday and see our talk (co-presenting w/ Andy Jordan), on what it takes to work toward a CISO role - and, how to build toward long-term success, in a job infamous for burnout and churn. 

And if you do not want to be a CISO? Come out to Cactus Con 11 anyway because it is awesome!!!
 
Our talk will be divided into two parts: Act 1, how to get there; and, Act 2, what to do once you get the job. Hope to see you there at Career Village Track 1, at 2:00 PM if you have aspirations to lead a security team. 
 
Also, be sure to catch Christian Taillon's talk at 3:30 PM in Track 3, "Can Ducks Teach Us how to Share: What hunting Qakbot and other threats teach us about CTI."

The importance of small steps are NOT just limited to life, but when you learn complicated topic like ML/AI, programming, or any other IT topics, they are the same. You start slowly. You get to know new stuff step-by-step. Each small step will build your confidence and skill set. The important thing is not to give up, keep practising, and not compare your progress with someone else. You got this.
