Main Topics

1. Asset Inventory in Cybersecurity: Dale challenges the common security mantra "You can't protect what you don't know," using examples from both physical and cyber domains. He notes many of the comments on this week's article missed the main point, and he gives hints on the next two asset inventory articles.
2. Legal and Regulatory Issues in Cybersecurity: Dale emphasizes the importance of domain expertise whether it be cybersecurity or the legal profession. He previews upcoming keynote interviews with legal experts and advises cybersecurity professionals against making legal analyses without proper expertise.
3. Artificial Intelligence in Cybersecurity: Dale reveals that most AI submissions for S4 were broad and hand wavy. This isn't wrong, but most have heard this info by now.
