Does it strike anyone as odd that SolarWinds has a Vice President of security? Note that this company develops network and infrastructure management software and their updates are automatically pulled and installed by their customers. Every VP at such a company needs to be a VP of security, and every engineer needs to be a security engineer. Not understanding that is problem #1. Having a Vice President of Security at a company like this is a bit like having a "Vice President of Profit". Just as profit is everyone's job, so should security, at a company like this. If Target or Costco has a VP of Security that's understandable because security is not integral to their products, but for SolarWinds it should have been.
- Skunkleton 6y agoIt's probably a matrixed organization. There is just a VP with this focus because it is "very important".
