Episode Notes

Cyber impacts on us all. For most non-cyber leaders, cyber remains a mystery. While the risk of threat may be recognised, the impact is often hard to understand or appreciate. Deloitte’s podcast series, Demystifying Cyber, attempts to demystify cyber for business executives and senior leaders.

In this episode, we sit down with Pauliina Hartikainen, Head of Cybersecurity Culture and Awareness at KONE, and host Karthi Pillay, Cyber Risk Leader at Deloitte.

Demystifying cyber is a marathon rather than a sprint, and as a long-distance runner Pauliina understands how much stamina is needed for both. For her, building cybersecurity resilience is a journey that requires ongoing effort, a clear mission, and actionable goals. When demystifying cyber to business leaders, Pauliina emphasizes the importance of listening, speaking in their language and making the topics relatable.
