“Our approach to cybersecurity is broken in a number of fundamental ways - from how we measure the effectiveness of solutions to how we implement them," he says.
In a video interview with Information Security Media Group as part of its RSA Conference 2021 coverage, Sels discusses:

- How our approach to cybersecurity is broken and why it’s time for a “reboot”;
