In this episode of What The Hack?!, I am joined by Melanie Oldham from Bob's Business to discuss the benefits of Separating Your Digital Life. Melanie Oldham is the founder and driving force behind Bob’s Business, an award-winning and leading cyber security awareness training and phishing simulations provider.

Melanie is a real advocate for empowering the workforce from the bottom up to be cyber aware and in turn cyber resilient. The core business is aimed at demonstrating a positive approach to cyber security to really embed behaviour and culture change within the organisations she works with. As well as being the CEO of Bob's Business, Melanie acts as an advisor to the government and holds a number of board positions advising on cybers skills, growth, and how to create a secure, equal, and diverse culture across the cyber security sector. Melanie has racked up over 10 years of experience in the cyber security sector and has become a reputable and well-respected force within the industry, having recently been awarded a Fellowship, the highest level of attainment by the Chartered Institute of Information Security.
