Podcast Description
"Phishing for Trouble" is the cybersecurity podcast that demystifies compliance and information security in your business.
Technology and software are the backbone of modern business, simplifying daily operations and driving innovation.
But when it comes to cybersecurity and compliance, it’s no longer just an IT problem—it’s everyone’s responsibility. Rebecca Harper and David Holloway bring together industry-leading experts to break down high-profile cyber and information security incidents, exploring what went wrong and, crucially, how you can avoid the same pitfalls.
Podcast Insights
Content Themes
The podcast centers on key topics in cybersecurity such as compliance frameworks, risks associated with data breaches, and market trends. Episode examples include deep dives into incidents like the Colonial Pipeline ransomware attack and the CrowdStrike software update failure, each presenting emerging challenges and lessons learned in the cybersecurity landscape.
Compliance, security, privacy, AI risk. There’s a lot of noise out there, and not much of it is useful when you’re the one having to do the work.
Phishing for Trouble is the business resilience podcast from IO (ISMS.online), the platform thousands of teams use to manage compliance and build resilience day to day. Rebecca Harper and David Holloway talk to the security leaders, specialists and business experts they actually learn from, the kind of guests who give you something to take back to your team on Monday.
Honest, practical, sometimes a bit awkward. Always useful.
In part two of this Cyber Security Awareness Month special, Rebecca Harper, David Holloway and Kate O'Flaherty explore 2026's resilience lessons, from supply chain disruption and customer trust to the risks emerging in 2027.
From major service outages to cyberattacks affecting entire supply chains, 2026 has highlighted just how interconnected business risks have become. When critical services fail or suppliers experience disruption, the consequences can extend far beyond the original incident, affecting customers, operations, reputation and trust.
In Part 2 of our Cyber Security Awareness Month special, IO's Rebecca Harper and David Holloway are joined once again by cybersecurity journalist Kate O'Flaherty to examine what the year's biggest incidents reveal about business resilience, third-party dependencies and the growing commercial importance of security and trust.
Drawing on incidents involving major technology providers and supply chains, they explore why organisations are struggling to manage third-party risk, how supplier failures can become their customers' problems, and why resilience requires more than incident response and recovery plans. The discussion also examines the case for more connected governance across information security, privacy, AI and compliance, and what business leaders need to understand about their critical dependencies.
Looking ahead to 2027, the conversation turns to the emerging risks and developments organisations should be watching, from AI and ransomware to critical infrastructure and geopolitical uncertainty.
If you're wondering how to build resilience in a world where so much of your business depends on systems, suppliers and services outside your direct control, this episode explores what organisations can learn from 2026 and how they can better prepare for what comes next.
