Podcast Episode 15: A Conversation on Cybersecurity in Asset Management

In this episode, listeners will gain practical advice on strengthening cyber and information security strategies, ensuring operational resilience, and conducting more meaningful due diligence on third-party providers.

Brian Digney sits down with Nic Miller from Aedile Consulting to explore the evolving cyber threat landscape facing asset managers. With a background at GCHQ and extensive experience advising investment firms, Nic breaks down the most pressing cybersecurity risks and misconceptions — from the real impact of opportunistic attacks to the limitations of outsourcing IT and relying on "box-ticking" solutions like standard penetration tests.

Nic also shares why cultural attitudes toward security and risk ownership matter just as much as technical controls, especially for small to mid-sized firms with limited resources. Whether you are an investor, a manager, or part of a risk oversight team, this episode delivers clear, actionable takeaways to help your organisation better navigate the complex world of cybersecurity.
