Key emerging risks include cybersecurity (41%) and Generative AI (Gen AI) (35%), both of which present challenges in skill development and retention. The growing reliance on external providers reflects these gaps. In two years, strategic risk has fallen 10% as technological advancements have shifted auditors’ attention away from strategy. So what are the top concerns?

Not all infosec advice is helpful. Bad advice wastes time, makes people less secure, and takes focus away from making software more secure. Bob Lord talks about his efforts to tamp down hacklore -- the security myths and mistakes that crop up in news stories and advice to users. He talks about how these myths come about, why they're harmful, and how they're related to the necessity of building software that's secure by design.

First Topic - Podcast Content Plans for 2026

Every year, I like to sit down and consider what the podcast should be focusing on. Not doing so ensures every single episode will be about AI and nobody wants that. Least of all, me. If I have one more all-AI episode, my head is going to explode.

With that said, most of what we talk about in this segment is AI (picard face palm.png). I think 2026 will be THE defining year for G...

For our first episode of the new year, we thought it would be appropriate to dig into some cybersecurity predictions.

First, we cover the very nature of predictions and why they're often so bad. To understand this, we get into logical fallacies and cognitive biases.

In the next segment, we cover some 2025 predictions we found on the Internet.

In the final segment, we discuss 2026, drop some of our own predictions, and talk about wh...

Cloud breaches don’t always start in the cloud, but they do end there. To defeat an attacker you need to understand their mission target along with the access points available to them, regardless of whether they reside within or beyond the cloud. SentinelOne is purpose-built to stop attacks wherever they originate - from within and beyond the cloud. This year’s OneCon aims to showcase exactly how Singularity Cloud Security can be a...

Our field is booming! Cybersecurity jobs are projected to grow 33 percent through 2033, far outpacing the average 4 percent growth across all jobs. (And yes, those stats could be made up, but they sound nice, eh?) Yet newcomers often feel paralyzed by where to start. The truth? There's no single "right path," but there are proven strategies that work. The field needs people at all levels, and you don't need a four-year degree to br...

In this Say Easy, Do Hard segment, we tackle the health and wellness of the CISO.

In part 1, we discuss the increased pressures CISOs face. We all know them...
