Thank Ransomware for Your Seat at the Table (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Jim Mapes is a practicing CISO, advisor, and adjunct professor who has worked in security since the late 1990s, when the field was called information security and security teams could not get a meeting with the CIO. In this conversation, he explains how the industry earned its current board-level standing and what security leaders should do with it. Jim identifies governance as cybersecurity's biggest area of progress, now formalized in NIST 800-53 revision 5 and CSF 2.0, and explains the princi
AI Needs Guardrails, Backups Need Testing, and Your New Hire Might Not Exist (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Georgeo Xavier Pulikkathara enlisted in the Army at 18 as a private E1. He's a colonel now, with 15 years at Microsoft behind him, a PhD in cybersecurity in progress at 58, and a job title most security leaders never hold: both CIO and CISO at the same company, managing one budget to ROI and the other to risk.

The Dark Knight of Game Economies on AI, Curiosity, and Guardrails (opens the original)
Read excerpt
Ward Spangenberg has spent his career finding the gaps: mapping trout DNA with a homemade database in college, dismantling a game economy's black market so thoroughly that players nicknamed him the Dark Knight, and helping build the case for bug bounties at HackerOne. Now he's the founder of Behavry.ai, building in the category Gartner calls guardian agents. In this conversation, Ward and Taylor dig into why security spends its money explaining last night instead of preventing tomorrow, what pur
