EP 212: The AI Worked. The Process Didn't.

Anthropic, the company that built Claude, just accidentally published the full source code of their most important product. And it was their second data exposure in five days. What does this teach every organization buying AI tools right now? Kip Boyle shares the best takeaways from CRO's AI governance training and explains why the risk of AI isn't the AI itself. Your host is Kip Boyle, CISO with Cyber Risk Opportunities.

EP 211: What Sea-Tac’s Ransomware Revealed

In August 2024, a ransomware attack shut down baggage systems, flight displays, and Wi-Fi at Sea-Tac Airport. What did it reveal about how executives think about cyber investment? And why is “how much more security do we need?” the wrong question to ask after a major incident? Let’s find out with our guest Stephanie Warren, Assistant Director of Information Security at the Port of Seattle, who lived through that attack and came out the other side with hard-won lessons about executive decision-making under pressure.

EP 209: Mythos: When AI Finds More Than We Can Fix

Anthropic released Claude Mythos Preview. The headline is "AI can now find zero-days." Yes, but the real story is the gap between what AI finds and what organizations can fix. About 99 percent of Mythos findings are still unpatched. We cover what Mythos is in plain English, why the patching gap matters most, what duty of care means when your board knows these tools exist, where AIR-MAP fits, and why most advisors skip data sovereignty. Hosts: Kip Boyle, CISO, Cyber Risk Opportunities; Jake Bernstein, Partner, K&L Gates.

EP 208: Flan Recipes and Prompt Injection

A Stripe employee hid a message in his LinkedIn profile telling any AI that read it to include a flan recipe. A month later, an AI recruiter emailed him one. It's funny until you realize the same technique can exfiltrate data, generate phishing content, or hijack automated business processes. What is prompt injection, why does OWASP rank it as the number one risk to large language models, and what should you do about it? Let's find out.

EP 206: Fire Doesn't Innovate. AI Does. Are You Ready?

Fire hasn't changed since the dawn of humanity, but our cyber adversaries evolve every single day. What happens when organizations spend $10 on AI transformation for every $1 on cybersecurity? In this special ROCon 2025 keynote replay, Kip shares two stories that changed how he thinks about risk: a "perfect" employee who became an insider threat in four weeks, and a $12M deepfake that defeated every technical control on the dashboard.

Most cybersecurity people talk at CFOs instead of with them. What if there were a simple test to know when a CFO wants to learn about cyber risk versus when they just need someone to trust? Let's find out with our guest James Wheeler, a highly experienced CFO who now runs kept.pro, providing fractional accounting teams to businesses across the country.
