A CISO's secret weapon? A rock-solid alliance with the CFO. 🤜 🤛 Munawar V., our newest advisor, recently spoke about where to spend time building relationships as a CISO: "Along with the CTO or CIO, the CFO is the most important business stakeholder for CISOs. You will have to put your arms around, that you will have to invest in and nurture those relationships. Because they will drive the conversation with you, in partnership with your audit committee and the board, and allow you to articulate across all parts of the organization." https://lnkd.in/gjh5gV-x

“Anthropic seem to be trying to position themselves as ‘more-open’ than competitors such as OpenAI and Google which may help to give themselves a differentiator in the market. OpenAI, in particular, has been criticized for not living up to being ‘open’ by none other than Elon Musk – so if anything, it would seem a direct challenge to OpenAI.” Alastair Paterson adds his thoughts for ITPro after Anthropic published the system prompts for its latest Claude models https://lnkd.in/giVuGUGr

This week, Edward M. created a Tines workflow that automates KnowBe4 security awareness training assignments via Slack – all triggered by Harmonic's webhooks. No more sitting through hours of security awareness training once a year. Instead, you can instantly deliver training to end users based on their risky activity (such as, after they try to upload sensitive data to ChatGPT). With overworked security teams, this type of automation can make a big difference. Check out the full blog for how Ed set it up: https://lnkd.in/g9MQbYwn Reach out if you'd like help setting this up!

🥔 Last week, Edward M. sent me a great video of a potato dancing to Megan Thee Stallion while putting confidential info into ChatGPT. While this was excellent itself (full link and appropriate credit below), the comments provide a pretty good insight into how employees are using ChatGPT, Gemini, and other tools. ⬇ I pulled out some of the most interesting comments in the replies The reality is that employees are going to use these tools, whether you like it or not. In many cases, they don't really understand how the information they are sharing can be sensitive. You can either embrace it and educate them along the way, or bury your head in the sand.
