The First Ladies of Cyber: What's Keeping CISOs Up at Night | The Jam Session🎙️

Catch the Jam Session live on Fridays, exclusively at the Insight Jam https://insightjam.com Join today to stay up to date and connect with the human conversation around AI and tech! Cher Fox brings together cybersecurity leaders to reveal why AI-driven fraud increased 1,300% year-over-year as deepfakes enable voice cloning from 60-second audio clips, video manipulation that defeats visual inspection, and business email compromise attacks that read years of correspondence to replicate communication patterns perfectly. The panel exposes how modern attacks feel personal because threat actors spend months studying targets through compromised systems before launching tailored ransomware campaigns, while organizations struggle with third-party vendor attacks like the recent Scheduled Task incident that proved undetectable through traditional signature-based tools and required exhaustive manual infrastructure reviews. Learn why cybersecurity teams face burnout from constantly evolving threats while leadership demands AI adoption without providing governance policies, adequate training budgets, or realistic headcount to validate automated detections that still require human judgment for business-appropriate responses, and why retention through institutional knowledge preservation delivers better ROI than expensive tools deployed without strategic end goals or sufficient proof-of-concept validation periods. ************ Hosted by Cher "The Datanista" Fox https://www.linkedin.com/in/cherfox/ - Founder & CEO, Fox Consulting Panelists: Laura Harder https://www.linkedin.com/in/lauraiharder/ - VP, ISSA International Gaelle Koanda https://www.linkedin.com/in/gaelle-koanda-cisa-cism-pmp-award-winner-52404346/ - VP of Education, ISACA Denver Wing-Yen Leung https://www.linkedin.com/in/wing-yen-leung-9a96354/ - Manager SecOps and Engineering, Mindbody Quintana Patterson https://www.linkedin.com/in/quintanapatterson1997/ - Cybersecurity and Technology Manager, Women in CyberSecurity ************ 0:00 Introduction: What's Keeping CISOs Awake at Night 5:02 AI Reshaping Cyber: 1,300% Fraud Increase and Deepfakes 13:32 Building Trust: Human-in-the-Loop AI Validation 25:05 Modern Threats: Personal Attacks and Business Email Compromise 33:48 User Training Evolution: Beyond Annual Videos 40:17 Managing Uncertainty: Burnout and Innovation Pressure 48:04 Executive Advice: Prioritize People Over Tools 56:43 Contact Information and Upcoming Events
