One Main Financial CISO Michelle Valdez joins CISO Insider to discuss how to build a community of cybersecurity. Her approach is all about resiliency and reducing human risk to minimize the impact of security incidents. We talk about how she built this approach from her long career that began in the Air Force and now includes her work in fintech in the private sector. She also shares advice on how CISOs from all backgrounds can excel in the role — even CISOs without technical backgrounds. Finally, hear about how she thinks about data security as a security executive. We’re excited to share our discussion with Michelle.

S2E5 - A Community of cybersecurity with Michelle Valdez

Resilience

Michelle Valdez, the CISO at OneMain Financial, doesn’t approach cybersecurity through the lure of the threat. Instead, she applies a methodical, problem-driven approach honed through her background in the US military, where she served as an investigator for the U.S. Air Force. Her extensive experience working in national security, intelligence, and the military has driven her communications-focused approach to cyber resilience as she focuses on interrogating the problem, not the people, and embraces failure as a pivotal step to success. In our latest episode, Michelle opens up about her impressive career and the lessons she’s learned along the way.
