Standout Quotes:

“The piece that worries me the most, and I've said this for a very long time, is the data integrity. AI data sets are vulnerable to deliberate poisoning or accidental pollution. Now, if I talk to AI providers, they will tell me that their AI is sufficiently intelligent, that it can really spot these things. I don't buy it. If I'm using AI, I want to make sure that the data it's actually telling me to make decisions about has a huge amount of the traditional information security guidance around it.” - Steve Durbin
“The challenge for us is to align cyber risk management with the needs of the business by identifying how risk management and resilience are aligned and help to meet business objectives. That way, I can guarantee you will get the ear of the business. And if you can crack that one, then some of the other issues that we're dealing with, such as resourcing, such as alignment, such as commitment, tend to go away.” - Steve Durbin
“The ones that I think are really going to succeed and flourish in 2025 are going to have aligned security with the business, and are going to have put in place mechanisms for all elements to change in sync with each other. Keeping on track is going to require a huge amount of collective collaboration across the enterprise.” - Steve Durbin
