Business Security Weekly (Video)

As brands grow more digital, the threats grow more personal. Attackers impersonate executives, spin up fake websites, and leak sensitive data — hurting business reputations and breaking customer trust. How do you defend your organization's reputation and customers' trust?

Santosh Nair, Co-Founder and CTO at Styx Intelligence, joins Business Security Weekly to discuss how to defend trust and reputation in the age of AI. Santosh will cover both the company and executive challenges of defending against the latest AI attacks, including:

• Impersonations and Deepfakes
• Employee Scams
• Financial Fraud

Recent findings of AI ecosystem insecurities and attacks show the importance of needing AI governance in the supply chain. And this supply chain is rapidly expanding to include not only open-source software but also collaborative platforms where custom models, agents, prompts, and other AI resources are used. And with this expansion of third-party AI component and services use comes an expanded security threat often not included in traditional supply chain management processes. It's time to update our supply chain management process to include AI governance. Easier said than done.

In this Say Easy, Do Hard segment, we invite three CISOs to discuss the challenges of AI and the supply chain, including:

• Data privacy concerns
• Flaws and malicious code in AI dependencies
• Lack of security tools to test for AI
• Vibe coding risks

and more. But we also do the hard part, by discussing the changes needed to your supply chain management process to address these concerns.

How do we get security right? The answer varies by many factors, including industry, what you're trying to protect, and what the C Suite and Board care about.

Khaja Ahmed, Advisor at CISO Forum, joins Business Security Weekly to discuss how to get consensus on your security program. CISOs, executives, and the Board need to be aligned on the risks and how best to address them. And it's not technical risks, it's business risks measured by legal or financial impact. Khaja will help guide new and existing CISOs on how to:

• Work across the business to build consensus
• Identify and quantify risks in financial and legal terms
• Design security from the start
• Be effective as a security leader

Are you running SAP? The clock is ticking... Standard maintenance end-of-life is set for the end of 2027. Migration to S/4HANA must be completed by then (or 2030 if you buy into SAP's special three-year reprieve). While that may appear to be enough time, companies currently working toward an S/4HANA transition are finding the journey challenging, and that's not including the security challenges.

Chris Carter, CEO at Approyo, joins Business Security Weekly to discuss your SAP options, including:

• ERP Strategy: Stay with SAP or migrate to other solutions?
• S/4HANA Architecture: All cloud or cloud/on-premise?
• Security Challenges: Cloud vs. on-premise
• SAP Migration: Recommendations for success

New research estimates the value of Zero Trust. Using the Marsh McLennan Cyber Risk Intelligence Center's proprietary cyber losses dataset from the past eight years, researchers estimated that overall cyber losses could have been potentially reduced by up to 31% had the organizations widely deployed zero-trust security. This adds up to a projected reduction of up to $465 billion in global annual total economic losses.

But Zero Trust projects have struggled due to complexity. Rob Allen, Chief Product Officer at ThreatLocker, joins Business Security Weekly to discuss the simplicity of Zero Trust Endpoint Protection and how it can drive value. Rob will discuss how the ThreatLocker® Zero Trust Endpoint Protection Platform offers a unified approach to protecting users, devices, and networks with ease of deployment and management. Zero Trust doesn't have to be complex.

The modern workspace, increasingly reliant on cloud-based applications, browser-first access, and AI integration, faces significant security challenges that outpace the capabilities of traditional tools.

Legacy solutions, including VPNs and even early ZTNA implementations, are proving vulnerable to sophisticated attacks leading to data breaches and operational disruptions. The fundamental shift in how we work demands a new approach, one that closes the gaps left by the platform approach.

We need the ability to 'trust nothing and click on anything with zero risk.' We need to take zero trust beyond the network that we operate and control.
