CISO Interview: Mandy Andress, Elastic

Many Andress, CISO, Elastic

How does a CISO stay ahead of rapidly changing threats? And what do you do, if cyber attacks are more frequent, happen more quickly, and cause more harm?

Can we cope when an attacker can access a network in under a minute?

These are just some of the questions addressed by our guest this week, Mandy Andress.

Mandy is CISO at Elastic. Elastic describes itself as a “search AI company”, and is very much at the forefront of modernising enterprise technology.

A host of businesses use Elastic’s tools behind the scenes to manage their data, for security and, of course, for AI.

As CISO, Mandy  has the dual responsibilities of keeping Elastic secure, and advising customers on security.

In this CISO interview, we also hear about Mandy’s route into cybersecurity, via both accountancy and technology, and how that helps her communicate with the business.

And we discuss why CISOs need to be more aware than ever of their role in providing security, not just within their own organisations but across national infrastructure, and the wider economy.
