As cyber threats become increasingly difficult to detect and the technology to combat them continues to evolve, organizations must be prepared to move faster than ever. Looking ahead, the rise of post-quantum computing will bring both new opportunities and challenges, further reshaping the cybersecurity landscape. With the launch of Entrust’s Cryptographic Security Platform (announcement coming April 16th) as a backdrop, Jordan can discuss why all organizations – large and small – must prioritize post-quantum preparedness before it’s too late. He can also address emerging fraud technologies (e.g., deepfakes, GenAI) and fraud attacks (account takeovers, synthetic identities, impersonation), which are drawing more attention to the need for cyber-resilient methods, such as post-quantum cryptography, to protect against new fraud risks in the digital future.

In this interview, Gunter Ollmann, Chief Technology Officer at Cobalt, unpacks the findings from the State of Pentesting Report 2025, spotlighting both measurable security progress and the rising challenges introduced by generative AI (genAI). While the report shows that organizations are resolving vulnerabilities faster than ever, genAI systems stand out as a growing security blind spot: only 21% of serious genAI vulnerabilities identified during penetration testing are fixed, compared to over 75% for API flaws and 68% for cloud vulnerabilities. Nearly 32% of genAI-related findings were classified as high risk — more than double the average across other systems. And although 98% of organizations are adopting genAI-powered features, only 66% are running regular security assessments on those systems.

AI Governance, the next frontier for AI Security. But what framework should you use? ISO/IEC 42001 is an international standard that specifies requirements for establishing, implementing, maintaining, and continually improving an Artificial Intelligence Management System (AIMS) within organizations. It is designed for entities providing or utilizing AI-based products or services, ensuring responsible development and use of AI systems. But how do you get certified? What's the process look like?

Martin Tschammer, Head of Security at Synthesia, joins Business Security Weekly to share his ISO 42001 certification journey. From corporate culture to the witness audit, Martin walks us through the certification process and the benefits they have gained from the certification. If you're considering ISO 42001 certification, this interview is a must see.

Zero Trust isn't a new concept, but not one easily implemented. How do organizations transform cybersecurity from a "default allow" model, where everything is permitted unless blocked, to a "default deny" model?

Danny Jenkins, Co-founder and CEO at ThreatLocker, joins Business Security Weekly to discuss this approach. Deny by default means all actions are blocked by default, with only explicitly approved activities allowed. This shift enhances security, reduces vulnerabilities, and sets a new standard for protecting organizations from cyber threats. ‍ Danny will discuss how ThreatLocker not only protects your endpoints and data from zero-day malware, ransomware, and other malicious software, but provides solutions for easy onboarding, management, and eliminates the lengthy approval processes of traditional solutions.
