The question, "What is the problem we're trying to solve" is the first step in identifying whether or not the problem at hand is worth addressing at this time. Essentially, is this what we should be working on right now and what will this gain us. This is a question to be answered by leadership. Michael has two decades of experience in security and working at the executive level. He's a regular on the Security Weekly and Down the Security Rabbithole podcasts. He's also launching his new program Straight Talk on Security. We discuss what the question means, risk catnip, why the it's important, how to answer it, and the three perspectives.
