It was great joining #ShareTheMicInCyber co-founder Lauren Zabierek on the CyberWire Daily to talk about how the cybersecurity landscape & the people shaping it are evolving. Inclusion isn’t just the right thing to do. It’s how we build stronger, smarter defenses.

Cyber solidarity on the chopping block.
CISA Layoffs threaten U.S. cyber coordination with states, businesses, and foreign partners. Google issues its second emergency Chrome update in a week, and puts Privacy Sandbox out of its misery. OpenAI’s new browser proves vulnerable to indirect prompt injection. SpaceX disables Starlink devices used by scam compounds. Reddit sues alleged data scrapers. Blue Cross Blue Shield of Montana suffers a data breach. A new Android infostealer abuses termux to exfiltrate data. Iran’s MuddyWater deploys a wide-ranging middle east espionage campaign. We’re joined by Lauren Zabierek and Camille Stewart Gloster discussing the next evolution of #ShareTheMicInCyber. When customer service fails, try human resources.

AI isn’t just another tool—it’s a forcing function for reinvention.

Too often, organizations rush to deploy AI and stumble—not because the tech fails, but because their systems, culture, and governance weren’t built to sustain it. ⬇️

AI is supposed to boost productivity, but too many orgs are drowning in endless low-quality drafts, repetitive outputs, and wasted review cycles. When paired with weak governance and poor planning, AI stops being innovation and starts being a liability. ⬇️

Let’s take a closer look at a less visible but critical piece of the puzzle: food and drug provenance.

Last weekend’s ransomware attack on major European airports is a wake-up call: resilience planning isn’t optional. Check-in systems went dark. Some flights were delayed and cancelled. But most planes kept flying because airports had manual backups ready.

The Senate just passed my bill by UC to release this report to the public, to end this cover-up by CISA. Now the House needs to pass my bill so the public can see how shockingly insecure our phone system is. Then the government must hold phone companies accountable for failing cybersecurity 101.

AI is accelerating. Layoffs are mounting. And an entire generation is starting to wonder if there’s still a place for them in the future economy.

Denmark wants you to copyright your face.
The U.S.? Still treating it like freeware.

Identity isn’t just personal anymore. It’s programmable, profitable, and political.
