    Risk Rewired: Samir Sherif’s Cybersecurity Playbook for Executives
    In this episode of CyberOXtales, Samir Sherif challenges executives to drop outdated boundaries and start thinking in systems. Drawing on years in both financial services and security operations, he outlines why integrating the Security Operations Center (SOC) and Network Operations Center (NOC) is no longer optional. It's essential for resilience.

    Samir maps out how AI is doing more than just reducing noise in SecOps. It’s already making Level 1 decisions, and soon it’ll take on Level 2 logic, pushing organizations to rethink their human capital strategies. But the tech alone isn’t enough. Culture matters. He breaks down how shifting from a vulnerability-based mindset to a risk-centric language can unlock alignment across engineering, IT, and business functions.

    This is a no-nonsense guide to breaking silos, choosing the right tools, and designing for continuity from the code layer to the C-suite. If you're leading a digital transformation, this episode belongs in your war room.

    Building a Risk Narrative: Gary Hayslip’s Cybersecurity Playbook for Executives

    In this episode of CyberOXtales, host Neatsun Ziv, CEO of OX Security, sits down with Gary Hayslip, CISO at SoftBank Investment Advisors, to explore how CISOs can build risk narratives that influence business decisions. Gary shares lessons from his experience in five CISO roles and emphasizes why cybersecurity leaders must act as business executives first. He outlines how to align strategy with operations, engage with boards through compelling storytelling, and maintain peer-driven situational awareness in a fast-moving threat landscape.

    Key Takeaways:

    • CISOs are Business Executives First – Gary emphasizes that cybersecurity leadership today is about managing risk, enabling operations, and supporting business goals.
    • Build a Tailored Risk Narrative – A one-size-fits-all story doesn’t work. Risk narratives must reflect the unique needs, operations, and regulatory context of the business.
    • Storytelling Drives Strategy – Gary uses risk/threat matrices, control frameworks like NIST CSF, and ongoing assessments to communicate a clear story to executive teams.
    • Peer Networks are Essential – Active engagement with fellow CISOs helps benchmark strategy and adds credibility in boardroom discussions.
    • Balance Ops and Strategy – Mornings are for operational awareness; the rest of the day is for strategic collaboration, reporting, and forward-looking planning.

    Listen to this episode of CyberOXtales to learn how Gary Hayslip builds risk narratives that resonate—from the boardroom to the security operations center.
