A.I. is evolving at warp speed and cyber threats are riding its wave. In this explosive episode, Tyler sits down with Brooke Johnson, General Counsel at Ivanti.com to discuss how AI-driven threat detection systems are outpacing traditional security measures, making real-time defense a reality. As AI empowers security, it also equips cybercriminals with sophisticated tools, escalating the complexity of cyber threats. Staying informed and adaptive is no longer optional; it's imperative for survival in this dynamic landscape. We are at the front lines of modern cyber warfare. Brooke shares Ivanti’s cutting-edge approach to AI governance and why security-by-design is no longer optional; it’s mission-critical because AI is rewriting security rules.

I am joined by Chuck Brooks, who has been named "Top Tech Person to Follow" by LinkedIn, voted "Cybersecurity Person of the Year," and cited as a Top 10 Global Tech and Cyber Expert and Influencer to explore the leading-edge technologies transforming our world. Chuck is a Georgetown University professor, two-time Presidential Appointee, Forbes contributor, and author of Inside Cyber: How AI, 5G, IoT, and Quantum Computing Will Transform Privacy and Security. We discuss how tech innovations are reshaping privacy, security, and the fabric of our digital lives. We dive into critical topics like the vulnerabilities in infrastructure, the rise of AI-powered cyber threats, and what we can do to prepare for an uncertain future.

We offer insights on the life changing potential of AI in healthcare to the disruptive power of quantum computing. Our discussion highlights the profound challenges and opportunities of living in a hyperconnected world in the digital age. If you’re curious about the forces shaping our future, concerned about cybersecurity, or eager to understand how to protect yourself and your organization, this is an episode you can’t afford to miss.

In this episode of Our Connected Life, I welcome Brooke Johnson, Senior Vice President and Chief Legal Counsel at Ivanti.com to discuss the dual role of artificial intelligence in government security. We explore how AI functions as both a shield and a weapon, revolutionizing critical infrastructure protection while enabling adversaries to launch increasingly sophisticated attacks. We also dissect the unprecedented speed of AI’s evolution, its transformative potential across industries, and its implications for national security, privacy, and the legal landscape.

Our provocative discussion doesn’t shy away from complex questions, such as how do we regulate an unstoppable force like AI? Can technology emulate compassion and creativity, and what are the legal ramifications if it goes rogue? Packed with insights on human-machine collaboration, responsible AI governance, and the future of digital identities, this episode offers essential perspectives for anyone navigating the rapidly changing intersection of law, security, and innovation. It’s a conversation you can’t afford to miss in our current era where technology is both our greatest tool and our most unpredictable challenge.

What if your co-host wasn’t just a person but an AI-powered, completely unscripted avatar with a mind of her own? Meet Digital Tyler, my new part-time co-host on Our Connected Life!
