Human-based cybersecurity focuses on empowering individuals to recognize and respond effectively to threats. This involves training employees to identify phishing attempts, suspicious links, and social engineering tactics. By fostering a culture of awareness, organizations can transform their teams into a strong defense against cyber threats. Although this may seem simple, humans often fall short in cybersecurity. While there is plenty of cyber awareness, it's essential to ask whether humans take cybersecurity seriously. A well-informed team is your best defense against hackers. Whether you're a business owner or an employee, prioritize human-based cybersecurity in your strategy.

Artificial Intelligence, or AI, has become a buzzword. But how much of what we hear is truth, and how much is myth? There is a sheer misunderstanding of AI, and many fears are developing. Facts have proven that AI can accelerate thinking and bring efficiency into the human ecosystem. Many also believe AI is capable of human-like reasoning and emotions. AI operates through algorithms and data patterns, lacking proper understanding or feelings. Another myth is that AI will replace all human jobs. While AI will automate specific tasks, it’s also creating new opportunities and roles that never existed before. The future of AI holds incredible potential, with anticipated advancements in healthcare, education, and climate change solutions. Ethical considerations will be crucial to ensure its benefits are realized equitably. This session will sift through the myths and focus on the truth as we shape AI for a better future.

Numerous challenges have been aimed at defeating hackers' aggression. The methodologies work well for some, but others often fall prey by opening a revolving door that destroys the cybersecurity shield. The risk outcomes carry far more implications due to soft targets, threat vectors, and lapses in safeguards. Despite knowing that hackers are soft target driven, many organizations struggle to communicate that "Feeding Hackers' Appetite" is a risk-enabling concept. This speaking session explains why hackers' target exploitation is the weakest link, gateways additional risks, and survives when the cybersecurity shield becomes defeated.
