AI is a friend, but it can be a terrible foe when not properly used. In cybersecurity, we also see AI as an enabler of cyber-criminal activities and security errors. In this podcast, we will focus on what you need to know to defend your enterprise against AI-enabled cyberattacks. We will also discuss how to protect yourself and your company against errors caused by the improper use of AI.

From busy showroom floors to hyped up vendor marketing claims, security leaders are constantly asked to choose the “right” cybersecurity partner. In this episode, Dr. Hugh Thompson sits down with Tal Arad, former CTO and Group CISO at Carlsberg Group, to unpack how security leaders can cut through the noise and build partnerships that strengthen their organizations. Drawing on his experience, Tal explores how to determine whether a solution truly addresses a real problem, why early technical discussions and proofs of concept matter, and what signals indicate a vendor can be a trusted partner. Ultimately, this episode offers a practical, experience-driven playbook for CISOs looking to choose partners they’ll still trust and want to work with years down the road.
Traditional network security has evolved, and security teams are challenged to understand data flows and how to use AI to help manage modern infrastructures and communications. Whether you are looking to increase resilience, streamline operations, or navigate the challenges of API abuse, RSAC 2026 Conference will help you navigate the shifting threat landscape of Network & Communications Security.

Organizations often spend a lot of time ensuring they're complying with cybersecurity standards and regulations, but often, accessibility standards are overlooked. Accessibility, in a sense, starts with compliance as well. However, cybersecurity vendors, platforms, and programs often don't know these standards exist, don't know the legal ramifications of not adhering to them, and don't know how to even begin to make the necessary changes. Tune into this podcast to learn how to bridge the gap between accessibility and cybersecurity.
