Slowing down AI got me thinking
Reading about the growing debate around slowing down AI got me thinking. Here’s a “controversial” thought. If you really wanted to slow AI adoption, you’d start paying in cash again.

For years, defenders have been playing an expensive game while attackers have benefited from automation and scale.…

What Does Scuba Diving Have in Common with Cybersecurity?
This past week, I had the opportunity to dive alongside my son, JeanCarlo, as he earned his Open Water scuba certification in the Cayman Islands. We averaged two to three dives a day and explored some incredible sites together. We also shared the stage at the Descent Cyber Conference, where…
Shadow AI Is a Signal
For years, we talked about Shadow IT as a governance problem. In some cases, it was. But often it was a signal that employees were trying to solve a problem faster than the organization could. I think we’re seeing the same thing with Shadow AI. People are not experimenting with…
