Episode 0: Why Cybersecurity Is as Much Art as Science

In this kickoff episode of The Art of Cybersecurity, host Cheri Hotman shares why this podcast exists and what listeners can expect. Cyber isn’t just science or technology — it’s art. It’s messy, constrained, people-driven, and ultimately about mitigating risk to protect people and data.

Cheri cuts through the noise of “easy button” tools, audit-passing mentalities, and checkbox compliance to talk about what security really is: designing programs that work, tackling people and process challenges, and aligning solutions to business goals.

Expect honest, unfiltered conversations, real-world stories, and practical insights that go beyond buzzwords. If you’re ready to say what needs to be said and push for cybersecurity that truly matters, subscribe now and join the fight.
