In this episode of Disruption/Interruption, host KJ sits down with Min Kyriannis, a trailblazer in the global security industry and CEO of Amyna Systems. Min shares her journey from immigrant roots to industry leadership, discusses the evolving landscape of network security, and explains how Amyna Systems is revolutionizing device-level protection. The conversation covers the challenges of legacy technology, the importance of proactive security, and Min’s commitment to both technological and humanitarian causes.

 

Four Key Takeaways:
The Human Element is the Weakest Link[11:03]
Min emphasizes that despite technological advances, human error and lack of education remain the biggest vulnerabilities in network security.
Legacy Systems Create Modern Risks [16:00]
Integrating old technologies with new networks opens up significant security gaps, as outdated protocols are not designed for today’s threats.
Proactive Security Over Reactive Patching[15:01]
The industry often relies on patching vulnerabilities as they arise, but Min advocates for addressing root causes to prevent issues before they occur.
Amyna Systems’ Revolutionary Approach[25:12]
Amyna Systems has developed patented technology that detects and remediates anomalies within seconds, providing a new layer of defense for modern networks.
