In episode 84 of the Cybersecurity Minute, Rob Wood suggests thoughtful conversations as a way to handle the FUD (fear, uncertainty, and doubt) surrounding artificial intelligence (AI) in the cybersecurity sector.
Highlights
00:25 — FUD has been swirling around AI. There’s a lot of concern about how the technology may lead to massive data leaks, along with how it may disrupt jobs.
01:39 — Sometimes FUD means that cybersecurity leaders need to pump the brakes. But in the case of AI, the train has left the station. There’s a lot of energy around this trend already. It’s going to evolve in new and different ways.
02:03 — Rob says that security practitioners, teams, and leaders need to embrace proactive conversations with their business organizational counterparts to figure out how they want to use these technologies. They need to help these teams think about how to embrace AI safely.
02:43 — This is such a great opportunity for security leaders to build trust and position their teams as business enablers. So try it out — start a conversation this week, Rob says.
