Sonesta: The importance of partners in effective security

Michael Woodson, Director of Information Security and Privacy at Sonesta, reflects on his extensive experience in the cybersecurity industry and how that experience has helped him to lead the corporation’s transition from one with a limited security landscape to one that instead possesses a fully operational security function that is both sustainable for the business and aligns with its objectives.

In addition, Woodson discusses the importance of an effective cybersecurity programme during an aggressive growth strategy; the corporation's approach to cloud security, application security, asset management, and unified patch management;  the corporation's partnerships; and its plans for the next 12 to 18 months.
