Debbie Reynolds, “The Data Diva” talks to Sandor Slijderink, an expert CISO who focuses on “All Things Information Systems”. Sandor compares cybersecurity to a vehicle, with different mechanics working on different components. He has been in the field for 30 years and is an expert CISO, educator, and practitioner of all things information security. It is difficult to find someone who is an expert on the entire cybersecurity aspect. Cloud service providers provide a server, hard drive space, and connections for data storage, but they technically own the data. Privacy is like closing the blinds, while security is like putting bars on the windows and having alarm systems. Sandor believes that people should not be afraid of AI and generative AI like ChatGPT but should instead explore and understand it in order to work with it. He also believes that companies should not hoard data but instead tie their data collection and retention to a purpose and delete or anonymize it once that purpose has expired. He also believes that people should be aware of the risks of using AI and generative AI ChatGPT, and should not put confidential information into it. Sandor discusses the importance of teaching information security practices to children from a young age, emphasizing the need for it to be part of a regular curriculum. He also highlighted the need for stronger encryption and the importance of teaching children not to look for loopholes as his hope for the future.
