  • Burning Down Cybersecurity Myths: Insights from Joshua Copeland
    Jan 28 2026

    In this episode, Deo Okello hosts Joshua Copeland, known as the 'Unpopular Opinion Guy,' to discuss his insights on cybersecurity and the misconceptions that plague the industry. Joshua emphasizes that the biggest misconception is the belief that purchasing security tools equates to actual security. He argues that organizations often fail because they don't align their security practices with real-world behaviors and decision-making processes. Instead of merely buying tools, Joshua advocates for a risk-based approach that focuses on human behavior and resilience in the face of breaches. Throughout the conversation, Joshua shares his experiences transitioning from military discipline to the complexities of business negotiations, highlighting the importance of understanding business priorities in cybersecurity. He stresses that cybersecurity should not be seen as a barrier but as a facilitator of safe practices. The discussion also touches on the role of AI in cybersecurity, where Joshua warns against using AI without proper governance, as it can exacerbate existing issues rather than solve them. Ultimately, he aims to inspire a shift in the cybersecurity landscape towards more effective and human-centric practices.
