Kenyada Meadows, CEO & Founder at The Executive Pare...

The threat landscape has become more interconnected, disruptive, and complex. Ransomware is now as much about extortion and data theft as it is about encryption. Supply chain events can create outages that ripple far beyond the initial target, and business interruption increasingly comes from third-party and cloud dependencies. How should CISOs prepare for these scenarios? Dan Bowden, Global Busin...

Artificial intelligence has quickly evolved from a productivity tool into an active participant in many organizations' daily operations.

Ben Lipcynski, Director Security and Regulatory Services at Optima, joins Business Security Weekly to discuss how organizatio...

Greg Hoffman, President at Ascension Performance Group, joins Business Security Weekly to discuss his new book, Performance Through People, a...

The 2026 Verizon DBIR has arrived and the results are in...

Over the last decade, cybersecurity heavily invested in EDR, XDR, SIEM, telemetry, and SOC-driven operations. We stopped asking how to stop attacks and started asking how fast we could detect them. However, Mythos and frontier models have changed that paradigm. How do you detect a -7 day vulnerability? Detection and response cannot keep, so what's the answer?

Dan Rochon, Author of Teach to Sell, joins Business Security Weekly to disc...

Attackers are increasingly weaponizing frontier models to accelerate the entire attack lifecycle, with current and emerging models reducing the time and expertise needed to start disruptive attacks. As offensive capabilities become more automated and agentic, organizations will need security programs that are equally autonomous, coordinated and continuous. But where do you start? Mark Hughes, Glob...

Why have security awareness training programs failed? Maybe we need to understand human psychology. Humans don't like tricks, or to be shamed, or negative emotions. Humans want to be rewarded, but yet our training and phishing programs are not built for reward. Maybe it's time to rethink cyber literacy. Craig Taylor, CEO and Co-founder at CyberHoot, joins Business Security Weekly to discuss why we...
