Topics covered:

Why do you think so many CISOs of traditional organizations fear cloud migrations? What is your best advice to a CISO who wants to migrate to the cloud using the on-premise playbook, or lift and shift?  What are the real tradeoffs in this decision such as using familiar tools/practices vs cloud benefits/effectiveness?  What would you recommend reading for a CISO managing their first cloud migration
