From Complexity to Clarity: Cyber Resilience with Cloudflare’s Christian Reilly

In this episode of The Business of Cybersecurity, I’m joined by Christian Reilly, Field CTO for EMEA at Cloudflare, to unpack what real-world cyber resilience looks like across industries and what’s holding many organisations back. From legacy systems in healthcare and education to cloud-native agility in gaming and fintech, Christian explains why some sectors are better prepared for modern cyber threats and what the rest can learn from them.

We explore the power of simplicity in cybersecurity strategy, the shift toward zero trust, and the cultural importance of treating employee training as a relentless, personal mission rather than a compliance checkbox. Christian also shares sharp insights on the growing risks posed by AI and quantum computing, the need for post-quantum cryptography, and how data protection is fast becoming the cornerstone of competitive advantage.

If your boardroom still treats security as an IT issue or your workforce sees it as a blocker, this conversation will change how you think about cyber preparedness. We discuss Cloudflare’s latest research findings, the future of AI-powered SecOps, and how organisations can move from passive defence to proactive, strategic resilience.

Listen now to learn how forward-thinking businesses are simplifying their stacks, mobilising end-user education, and building security into the core of their operations rather than bolting it on after the fact.
