Draft:Compromising Positions (podcast)

Compromising Positions is the UK based cybersecurity and technology podcast that interviews non-cybersecurity people from the fields of behavioural science, psychology, anthropology, marketing, UX/UR, and other areas of non-cyber tech about cybersecurity to get an outsider's perspective.

Every Thursday the hosts ask these experts what it's like to experience cybersecurity controls being imposed on them, what they wish cybersecurity teams would do to make their lives easier, and what cybersecurity professionals can do to learn from them and their industry to innovate and collaborate better.

Their first episode aired on 29th September as a Youtube live stream as part of the Leeds Digital Festival and featured an interview with co-author of the Phoenix Project, Kevin Behr.
