Rich StroffolinoHOST
It's how do we train for the incident response lifecycle? Not just the day that things go wrong, but kind of living with that and how it reverberates in the organization.
Rich StroffolinoHOST
figure out why this is such a problem and digging more into what TriHackMe is doing are Roland Toussaint, Head of Information Security over at ChenMed and Heather Hinton, CISO at Sitecore.
Rich StroffolinoHOST
Roland, let me start with you.
Rich StroffolinoHOST
Why does incident response training seem like it often falls short?
Adrian SwinscoeHOST
So welcome to the next edition of the Punk CX Podcast.
Adrian SwinscoeHOST
With me today I have Eric Stein, who is the CEO of Sitecore.
Adrian SwinscoeHOST
Now, Eric, just before you introduce yourself, obviously, how are you doing? How's your day?
Eric StineGUEST
Uh, thank you so much for having me here today, Adrian.
Eric StineGUEST
Sure.
Eric StineGUEST
So my name's Eric Stein.
Eric StineGUEST

So if you ask like five .NET developers whether you should use Umbraco or Sitecore for your company's website, you are definitely not going to get a consensus.
speaker_1HOST
No, definitely not.
speaker_1HOST
You
speaker_0HOST
It gets you where you need to go quickly and you can just throw whatever tools you want in the back.
speaker_1HOST
Yeah.
speaker_1HOST
Whereas Sitecore is more like a fully integrated 18-wheeler logistics fleet.
speaker_0HOST
Right.
speaker_0HOST
So while they both technically transport cargo from point A to point B, the infrastructure to run them could not be more different.
Michael BannonGUEST
I also knew that I probably had more-
Jack SweeneyHOST
Michael Bannon is today President and Chief Administration Officer of Sitecore based in London.
Jack SweeneyHOST
When we spoke with him, he was CFO of Typeform, but the geography of his career has remained remarkably consistent.
Jack SweeneyHOST
The move to London that once represented an unexpected turn has continued to shape the leadership roles that followed.
Nathan WrigleyHOST
This time around, Kadam delivered a presentation at WordCamp US focused on a crucial topic for anyone modernizing their site, migrating to blocks.
Nathan WrigleyHOST
Human Made has been all in on the block editor since the Gutenberg plugin days, and the team now specializes in large-scale migrations from other content management systems like Sitecore, as well as from other WordPress page builders.
Nathan WrigleyHOST
Our conversation focused on the technical and editorial challenges of moving tens or hundreds of thousands of posts into the world of blocks and patterns.
Nathan WrigleyHOST
We talked about the need to combine artisanal care, attention to detail in design, layout and brand, with industrial scale, the ability to automate, audit and validate mass migrations without losing visual fidelity.
9 MINS LATER
K. Adam WhiteGUEST
But if you have, again, hundreds of thousands of posts, even if you've built all those patterns, the heading and paragraph and image only approach doesn't cut it because then there would be a tremendously backbreaking amount of work adding group blocks, adding background colors, et cetera.
K. Adam WhiteGUEST
That's usually data that is available in one form or the other in the current system.
K. Adam WhiteGUEST
If we're migrating without a design change, We will have, whether it's the layout database in Sitecore or a metadata in a different WordPress block editor that we're migrating from or whatever the equivalent is in our source, we want to preserve the layout of the page and the styling elements.
K. Adam WhiteGUEST
So making sure that headings get the right text treatment, that anything that's italicized comes over, all of the nuances there, particularly around background colors, images, etc.

Tom HoopmanHOST
They were founded in 2023 for AI search optimization and GEO.
Tom HoopmanHOST
Scaled it in two years and sold it to Sitecore.
Tom HoopmanHOST
Fascinating platform, awesome platform.
Tom HoopmanHOST
I know by experience.
Chris AndrewGUEST
I mean, the acquisition process itself really kind of first conversations in December of last year around a partnership.
Chris AndrewGUEST
January, those got more serious.
Chris AndrewGUEST
February, Eric Stein, the CEO of Sitecore was like, we want to buy the company.
Chris AndrewGUEST
We weren't looking to sell.
Ian TruscottHOST
Yeah, and I
Mark DemenyGUEST
will say the most successful place that I sat was at Sitecore.
Mark DemenyGUEST
You know, I was doing a lot of product marketing-ish functions, but I was on the product team and they called that product strategy.
Mark DemenyGUEST
And there was a subtle distinction in that product marketing, yes, did handle the launches.
Mark DemenyGUEST
And so that worked and that was a nice distinction.
Mark DemenyGUEST
I think the tricky bit is few organizations really have a product strategy function and kind of understand where it fits.
Mark DemenyGUEST
But in the case of Sitecore, that made sense because You kind of sat in the middle of sales, marketing, product.
Mark DemenyGUEST
You were also doing some things like M&A and looking at the overall portfolio.
Tim SandersGUEST
So, so, so there's companies, uh, Scrunch is a great example.
Tim SandersGUEST
They, they were just acquired by Sitecore.
Tim SandersGUEST
Their agents can create, uh, website remediation, meaning literally spinning up new code for you to improve the, the machine readability across your site.
Tim SandersGUEST
Uh, different web-- Well, different AEO vendors have different specialties.
Martin BetancourtGUEST
So I think that also contributes to this added stress in the position.
Ovais AkhterGUEST
From my side, I think it's just very interesting that, I mean, while not in Java, when I was working in Sitecore, we experimented multiple models of how to manage teams, right? We basically manage where there is a project manager, if you may, and then there is a separate people manager.
Ovais AkhterGUEST
We work with situation where the same person is the people manager and the project manager or epic manager, whatever you call it.
Ovais AkhterGUEST
And all of them have some sort of benefits and downsides to it as well.
