A Busy Week for Cybersecurity Speaking Engagements

I have a busy week with podcasts, webinars, and a keynote! Communicating and sharing is vital to the cybersecurity industry. It is how we leverage shared knowledge and experiences to make more informed decisions and gain better positions against our adversaries.
Yesterday (Tuesday Feb 17th) I was speaking on Convene Chats webinar with the amazing Ashley Rose, talking about 2026 Cybersecurity Predictions and Impact on Human Risk. Not sure if the live recording is available, but it was an interesting take on how shifts in cybersecurity are manifesting in human risk.

Today (Wed Feb 18th 5pm ET), I am giving a live keynote to the Nemertes group, titled “Cybersecurity in the Age of AI: What’s Changing, How Fast, and What to Do About It”, discussing in-depth the 2026 Cybersecurity Predictions (and which ones are already coming true).
Nemertes has opened this up to ANYONE interested — just request an invitation here: https://nemertes.substack.com/p/contact-us
