Synopsis
World-renowned author, researcher, speaker and founder of legendary TripWire joins me semi-live from LASCON in Austin, Texas to talk about his current project(s) [The DevOps Cookbook, and When IT Fails: A Novel], and his book Visible Ops and how this can all be applied to security in today's tough business climate. Gene and I discuss what in the DNA of well-performing (or "agile") IT organizations, based on Gene's research and experience, enables them to not only perform better, but also serve the business faster. These high-performing organizations all have things in common, and you may be shocked to hear it's not heaps of money, or resources, or "powerful" CISOs. The experience was a pleasure and I guarantee you'll learn something from this podcast, and I highly encourage you to add Gene's books as a staple of your career-building library.
Guest
- "The real" Gene Kim - I am working on my third and fourth books, "When IT Fails: The Novel" and "The DevOps Cookbook," scheduled to be published in June 2012. Both are the culmination of over 13 years of researching both high-performing and low-performing IT organizations, as well as benchmarking over 1500 IT organizations to help inform what behaviors simultaneously advance business and information security objectives.
