“Our industry needs critical thinkers” - Chris Hallenbeck, CISO Americas, Tanium

It’s back to Nashville, Tennessee this week on the teissPodcast as I speak with Chris Hallenbeck, CISO for the Americas at Tanium, the endpoint security and systems management company.

I caught up with Chris at Tanium’s recent annual conference – Converge – where we discussed the industry’s need for critical thinkers, mentors, as well as the challenges around visibility, human nature and the "unchanging" threat landscape.

Before joining Tanium in 2016, Chris worked for six years on the U.S. Department of Homeland Security’s Computer Emergency Readiness Team…so I was eager to probe and hear his views on the current the state of cyber security.
