Recently, members of SCRIC’s Cybersecurity & Data Privacy team attended Gartner’s Security & Risk Management Summit in National Harbor, MD.

Their key takeaways:

💠 It’s time to shift from breach prevention to true cyber resilience

💠Manage AI by treating it like a digital workforce with identities, permissions, and oversight

💠The human factor remains the most underutilized security control. Invest in Cybersecurity awareness.
