AI Cybersecurity Executive and Leadership Forum

I’d like to share some highlights, key takeaways and primary takeaway on AI in Cybersecurity from the leadership ?and executive forum delivered by Mindfluence. ?This event on leadership and AI Cybersecurity was one of the best executive events I've attended in the last year.? Lots of amazing discussions and interactions. The conversations with executives in attendance were as valuable as the presentations and panels. Event was a great example on how to bring executives and industry experts together for a day of real collaboration and sharing knowledge.

Highlights from this event:

Artecia Wilson you absolutely rocked the house.? Artecia you need to write a book or start a podcast as you are sharing magical insights on how to get things done in the complex and fast changing world of Cybersecurity.

Gina Yacone , your energy, passion and words of wisdom resonated!? Whenever you speak and I’m at the same conference, I’m bringing popcorn to share. ??

Brenton House with it being Halloween you definitely scared me on the dangers in the world CyberSecurity is dealing with.?? Valuable insights and definitely one of the best cybersecurity presentations I’ve seen all year.? Highlighting the lack of governance with APIs (gateways to your data) was one of they important takeaways of the day. Your discussion on APIs is a "much watch" for everyone. A great presentation deck. If you ever change careers, teaching others on how to create an amazing set of slides is definitely your calling.

Maryam Quadir , lots of value from your insights on navigating privacy challenges with in-house models, explainability and deciding on what to work on.
