Agents of Security with Anand Thangaraju

​Get ready to dive deep into the wild world of cybersecurity with Anand Thangaraju, a Field CISO who's seen it all! From startup fumbles to enterprise wins, Anand brings fresh perspectives on how companies can actually get security right instead of just checking compliance boxes. As someone who's worked across AI, fintech, and risk management while advising startups and venture capital firms, he'll share the real stories behind what makes or breaks security strategies in today's digital chaos.

​This isn't your average security talk filled with acronyms and doom-and-gloom scenarios. Anand's traveled to 47+ countries, sits on multiple boards, and somehow finds time to be an amateur vocalist between his CISSP certifications and RSA conference speaking gigs. Expect candid insights about the startup landscape, practical advice you can actually use, and maybe a few tales from his adventures across 6 continents. Whether you're building your first security program or trying to fix what's already broken, you'll walk away with actionable strategies and a fresh perspective on becoming your own "agent of security."
