This episode's question:

I'm a consultant working in various vCISO roles for multiple companies. Recently, I've noticed a troubling trend: vendors are blatantly lying to SMEs that lack cyber representatives, and they're getting away with it. One of my customers recently reduced my hours to just a couple per month because a provider of a prominent tool assured them they had eradicated all cyber risk. When I tried to explain that this was nonsense, they dismissed it as me trying to hold onto my hours. It feels like cyber security is the wild west—companies can’t use fake eyelashes in mascara ads, but in cyber security, anything seems to go. I'm embarrassed and frustrated. What is happening, and how can I address this without looking jealous or like I'm trying to upsell things myself?
