Researcher Spotlight: Martin Lee, EMEAR lead, Talos Strategic Communications
Summary: Cisco Talos published a researcher spotlight on Martin Lee, its EMEAR lead for strategic communications, who traces threat intelligence back to the Book of Numbers and Julius Caesar's enciphered correspondence. Lee, who joined Cisco in 2013 after starting in spam-filter writing in the mid-1990s and abandoning a biomedicine research path, briefs executives on Talos research and is writing a textbook on the history of threat intelligence.
What you should know: Lee's own framing is that there is a gulf of understanding between the people full-on in the issues and the people who need to understand the problem and solutions, and he says a lot of his career has gone into bridging it - the same gap that sits between your detection team and your board.
