Infosec 2017 in London is in full swing and amongst the many superb talks, I found this one by Stella Rimington, the former head of MI5, to be inspirational.
Although not addressing cyber-security per se, Dame Stella Rimington's keynote opening speech at InfoSec Europe 2017 painted a warts-and-all picture of MI5, offering some lesson's to today's information security industry. Stella Rimington is former Director-General of MI5 and served for nearly 40 years in the UK's intelligence services "When I first met MI5 in the middle of 1960s nobody had heard of British intelligence at all," said Stella Rimington, the former head of MI5, as she opened this year's InfoSecurity Europe. She recalled her introduction to an agency whose transformations she had witnessed over 40 years.
