Task Force 7 Radio: Robert Rodriguez
Robert Rodriguez
Chairman & Founder of the Security Innovation Network (SINET)
Before creating SINET, Robert served over twenty-two years as a Special Agent with the United States Secret Service. His executive protection experience spanned 10 years at the White House serving Presidents Ronald W. Reagan, George H. Bush, William J. Clinton and numerous Heads of State. During his career he held a number of leadership roles within the Executive Protection, Protective Intelligence, Inspection and Criminal Investigation Divisions that has given him a wide array of leadership experience with different investigative and protective domains.
In this show, he tells us who the real innovators are in the Cyber Security space and he talks about the importance of collaboration and trusted relationships between the public sector, the private sector, and academia in addressing the worst cyber security threats we face today.
Mr. Rodriguez provides his opinion on what the worse threats to our national security are, what we need to do to address them, and what it takes to succeed as an entrepreneur in the very competitive cyber security space. Host George Rettas also gets into the issues over cyber security budgets being so regulatory driven and he asks Mr. Rodriguez how we transform from a budget cycle process that is so regulatory driven to a much more effective process of investing resources to mitigate material risks and produce value for our businesses.
