Decipher Security Podcast
About
Coming from a military family, Erin Whitmore was prepared for a career of service. But her path took her not into the military, but the intelligence community, first in the private sector supporting the DIA and NGA, and later as a cybersecurty program manager in the Office of the Director of National Intelligence. She eventually joined CIA as an operations officer and served in locations around the world before moving back to the private sector where she now focuses on executive risk and strategic intelligence at CYPFER. Erin joins Dennis Fisher to talk about her unique path and how it's prepared her for today's threats and the nascent AI revolution.
