What’s the biggest digital threat to your business?

“The Russians can now leverage supply chain attacks against Microsoft’s customers.”

When Ukraine-Russia geopolitical crisis started many western news sources claimed that Russia apparently didn’t use cyber capabilities to the extent the West had expected.

Can we say the same knowing that Russia’s attack against Microsoft (one of the biggest global service providers) is still not contained? Can we even comprehend the consequences that are underway or might come to light in the (near) future? 

Reality:

Nation State + Cybercriminal = Worldwide Impact

Over the last decade especially the last years, as the global supply chain have become extremely intertwined, we are seeing more and more collaboration between the cyber criminal groups and the nation state attackers.

Your weakest link aren’t your users.
It’s the weakest link in your global supply chain.

Approximately 1.3 million people fall victim to online scams every day. I personally know 3 friends who fell victim to online fraud in just last 9 months. The good news is all 3 of them got their money back.

How did the later happen? AI/ML in the background. AI in anti-fraud systems. AI in credit decisions. AI under the hood.

That’s not all. Last year, I traveled 61 hours to the Cayman Islands and back, to explore and answer these questions at the biggest technology conference in the Grand Cayman.

I shared my thoughts, experiences and the vision of the future with AI.
