Oh Hell No...Not My Data

Quantum computing could change everything we know about cybersecurity especially the cryptography we rely on every day.

In this episode of Oh Hell No…Not My Data, Keisha talks with David Pollak, founder of Spice Labs, about post-quantum cryptography, digital trust, and why organizations need to understand where cryptography lives inside their software before quantum computing makes current encryption easier to break.

David breaks down complex topics like public and private keys, digital signatures, encrypted connections, cryptographic libraries, and the difference between Harvest Now, Decrypt Later and Harvest Now, Forge Later attacks. He also explains why the biggest threat may not just be stolen data, it may be the erosion of trust when attackers can forge signatures, commands, or documents that look legitimate.

This episode is perfect for cybersecurity professionals, technology leaders, students, and anyone who wants a clearer understanding of how quantum computing may impact data security, software systems, and the future of digital trust.

Topics include:

• Cryptography explained for beginners
• Public key vs. private key encryption
• Quantum computing and cybersecurity risk
• Post-quantum cryptography readiness
• Cryptographic Bill of Materials
• AI and cryptographic attacks
• Software maintenance as a security strategy

In this episode of Oh Hell No…Not My Data, Keisha sits down with Darren Goonawardana, CEO of Collective, to explore the rise of the “Cyborg CEO”—a leader who combines human intelligence with AI to work smarter, automate strategically, and drive better business outcomes. Darren shares lessons from 30 years in tech and explains why the future isn’t simply AI replacing humans, but humans and technology working together.

On this episode you’ll learn how CEOs and business owners can identify the right processes to automate, why human judgment should remain in the loop, and why simply using AI to recreate a bad business process misses the opportunity. Darren also shares Collective’s experience using AI across marketing, sales, and back-office operations while balancing governance, data security, cost, and ROI.

The conversation covers:

• How to start implementing AI in your business
• What CEOs should automate first—and what they shouldn’t
• AI agents, automation, and the “Cyborg CEO” mindset
• Why AI adoption is often a cultural challenge, not just a technology challenge
• Data governance, privacy, security, and responsible AI adoption
• How businesses can measure AI costs, productivity, and ROI
• Why human experience and judgment still matter
• How to redesign workflows instead of automating broken processes
• Darren’s unexpected “Oh Hell No” moment that changed Darren’s perspective on business and life
