We often talk about the contradiction of seemingly entry-level security jobs requiring years of experience. But maybe that\'s because entry-level jobs don\'t actually exist.

Check out this post for the discussion that is the basis of our conversation on this week\\u2019s episode co-hosted by me, David Spark (@dspark), the producer of CISO Series, and Geoff Belknap (@geoffbelknap), CISO, LinkedIn.\\xa0Joining us this week is our guest Jay Wilson, CISO, Insurity.
