Ep.111, Alignment, Agility, and Security with Patrick O'Doherty

Security as a field is constantly evolving. As a result, it requires a high degree of awareness, including staying up to date with the latest developments in potential new threats. It was the challenge of working in security that drew Patrick O'Doherty to the field in the first place. Today on the show, we speak with Patrick about his time as a Senior Security Engineer at Intercom, his current role at Oso as an Engineer, and what he has discovered on his security journey. Patrick shares what he learned while being part of the security solutions team at Intercom and how they built common infrastructure and coding patterns. We also discuss the role of empathy in security, why it’s essential for your goals to be aligned with the people you’re trying to help, and why we should all work to be more aware of third-party threat exposures. Tune in today!
