The Founder Playbook: Brett Rowe on why cybersecurity is never “done” and how to stay ahead
Date Published: August 21, 2025

In this episode, Asanti’s Emma Lauchlan talks with Brett Rowe, Founder and Director of Securus Communications, one of the UK’s leading cybersecurity consultancies. Brett shares the story of launching Securus 12 years ago to bring service back into the heart of security solutions and why that customer-first approach still sets them apart today.

From the misconception that public cloud providers handle your security, to why cyber risk should be treated as a core business risk, Brett offers sharp insights for leaders navigating today’s constantly evolving threat landscape. He also talks about the role of AI in shaping the future of cyber – both as a tool for defence and as a weapon for attackers – and reflects on the business lessons he’s learned along the way.

If you want to understand why cybersecurity is never “done” and how to stay ahead, this conversation is a must-listen.
