ACSM: Hi Dhiba, let’s start by telling our readers a little about yourself.

When I started in risk management, as a Research Officer to the Risk Management department, it was exciting to have a mobile phone, with a handset in the car and email was just being introduced into the workplace. Now, as Jardine Lloyd Thompson’s (JLT’s) Divisional Manager – Risk (VIC & TAS) as part of JLT’s national (Risk) Consulting practice, I marvel, as the ever-changing technology environment brings many new challenges and opportunities, one of them being cyber risk management.

With 20 years’ experience in risk management, what was it about cyber security that attracted you into this relatively emergent field?

With the increasing interconnectivity and Internet of Things, as Risk Managers we need to practice what we preach and delve into emerging risks. What attracted me to the Cyber field is that it is an emerging risk.

We know it will have significant impacts, however, what those impacts will be and how they will shape our lives in the future, is uncertain. I am keen to explore the opportunities and help others, such as our clients and our own organisation, to capitalise on those opportunities, whilst being aware of and managing the risks along the way…Click HERE to read foll interview.
