À propos de ce contenu audio

In this episode, Aakash Suri sits down with David Clarke, a veteran security leader and virtual CISO with experience spanning global trading floors and AI-driven startups. They dig into the reality of building trust in 2026, moving beyond simple compliance to address the messy world of data sprawl. David shares why mapped data flows are the true foundation of business velocity and explains the dangerous accountability gap teams face when integrating AI. KEY TAKEAWAYS Data Sprawl vs. Regulation: Regulation like GDPR isn't what slows companies down; it’s data sprawl, unmanaged copies of data across too many systems that kill business velocity. The AI Accountability Trap: Organizations often believe using vendor AI offloads risk, but under GDPR, the organization not the model or vendor remains fully accountable for every automated decision. Governance Through Visibility: Building a simple asset register or data map is more valuable than complex policies, especially during a breach, when knowing where the data is is the only thing that matters. Preparation for Breach Response: Effective breach response requires a clear "escalation process" that involves the C-suite and Board early. Most organizations fail because they wait too long to communicate. Privacy as a "Shared Language": Success in 2026 requires breaking down silos; privacy, security, legal, and product teams must share a common language to turn privacy from a hurdle into a competitive advantage. BEST MOMENTS "It doesn’t take long before that [data management] kind of gets out of hand and it's just in living memory... it's just our own mess." "MFA on its own now... you can download toolkits to bypass basic MFA. The battleground is getting tougher and tougher." "AI doesn't let anyone off the hook. You still own the decision, the risk, and the explanation." "People don't rise to the occasion; they fall to the level of their preparations." "One second of outage [on a trading network] could cost you $20,000... you don't necessarily have the luxury of saying, 'Hey, can we turn this off?'"
