Episode 51 Michelle Valdez: Cyber Resilience Through Problem-Solving

Humans of InfoSec

Michelle Valdez, the CISO at OneMain Financial, doesn’t approach cybersecurity through the lure of the threat. Instead, she applies a methodical, problem-driven approach honed through her background in the US military, where she served as an investigator for the U.S. Air Force. Her extensive experience working in national security, intelligence, and the military has driven her communications-focused approach to cyber resilience as she focuses on interrogating the problem, not the people, and embraces failure as a pivotal step to success. In our latest episode, Michelle opens up about her impressive career and the lessons she’s learned along the way.
