My two-part conversation with Cole French on Cyber Compliance & Beyond is now available.

We discuss how AI is transforming cyber operations and national security—from the first reported AI-orchestrated cyber espionage campaign to the broader geopolitical competition shaping the future of cybersecurity.

If you’re interested in where AI, cybersecurity, geopolitics, and regulatory risk are headed, I hope you’ll give it a listen.
