Security Awareness Training – Artificial Intelligence & Emerging Security Risks

April 15, 2025

Join us for an essential Security Awareness Training session focused on the evolving landscape of Artificial Intelligence (AI) and the emerging security risks that come with it. In this session, we explore how AI is being used in everyday tools—and how it's also creating new opportunities for threat actors. This training emphasizes awareness, responsible usage, and practical security behaviors to help you stay one step ahead.

Key Topics Covered:

Understanding AI and Its Integration: Learn what AI really is, how tools like ChatGPT, Microsoft Copilot, and voice assistants like Siri and Alexa work, and how AI is quietly embedded in everything from email platforms to project management systems.
Growing Enterprise AI Adoption: AI is now present in 78% of organizations, with applications in business automation, customer service, coding assistance, and even threat detection. As adoption increases, so do the associated risks.

Best Practices for Secure AI Use:

Refer to policies like Acceptable Use, InfoSec, and AI-specific guidelines.
Stay educated through ongoing training and awareness programs.
Never upload sensitive data into public or unvetted AI tools.
Vet any new AI tool for privacy and compliance before using it.
Always apply human oversight—review AI outputs critically.

Why This Matters:

AI is not going away—it’s becoming a core part of our daily lives and work. But just as it helps us move faster, it can also expose us to new risks if not handled securely. With the right policies, training, and human oversight, we can harness the power of AI while staying protected.

Stay informed, stay alert, and remember—YOU are the first line of defense.

Security Awareness Training – Ransomware

Security Awareness

One Click Is All It Takes A single click on a phishing link. A password change request that didn’t feel quite right. A forgotten remote desktop login. That’s all it takes for ransomware to slip in and start locking down systems—and businesses. Why Ransomware Is Still a Threat Despite increased awareness, ransomware […]

What Operationalized GRC Actually Looks Like: From Silos to Systems

Cybersecurity, GRC, Other, Top Posts

Many organizations believe their GRC program is operational because audits are passing and tools are in place. In reality, operationalized GRC behaves very differently. Risk has clear ownership. Information flows across teams. Gaps surface early instead of being hidden. In this session, Cheri Hotman and Peter Spier walk through what an operationalized GRC program actually […]

Internal or External Resources? YES!

GRC

Imagine trusting a neighborhood kid to take care of your dog while on vacation. While they may be capable of completing the task you’ve outlined; they will likely only do exactly as you ask. The dog gets what they need and the job is done. In contrast, imagine trusting an adult neighbor caring for […]

The Maturity Gap: Why GRC Programs Plateau (and How to Advance)

Cybersecurity, GRC, Other, Top Posts

Most GRC programs reach a point where they stop growing—mature enough to pass audits, but not resilient enough to lead. In this session, we’ll reveal the key traits of high-maturity programs and what it takes to get there. You’ll learn how to identify your plateau, remove roadblocks, and strategically advance your organization’s governance, risk, and […]

Stop Asking If AI Is Trustworthy. Start Asking If Your System Is Governable

Cybersecurity, GRC, Other, Top Posts

Organizations are under pressure to adopt AI quickly, but many are still trying to govern AI-enabled systems with approaches suited for more predictable environments: policies, approvals, framework mappings, testing, and after-the-fact monitoring. Those mechanisms still matter, but they are not enough when systems retrieve changing context, invoke tools, operate through delegated authority, and create consequences […]
