    The Hidden Vulnerabilities of Modern Life: Are We Too Reliant?

    Are we too reliant on technology to notice when it fails? Or worse… when it gets manipulated? In this episode of Arcane Link, ⁠Amanda Crossley⁠, Lead for Cyber and Information in the defence industry, shares how her journey from the Navy to cyber security shaped the way she thinks about risk, resilience and the systems modern life depends on. From smart devices and operational technology to satellites, GPS spoofing, AI, space debris and the uncomfortable reality of digital dependency, this conversation explores how small overlooked risks can become much bigger problems when they sit inside systems we all rely on. Amanda breaks down: How her military background helped shape her path into cyber security Why smart devices, printers and operational technology can create hidden risks How GPS spoofing, satellite disruption and space debris could affect everyday life Why cyber security should be about education, empowerment and enabling people Who it’s for: business leaders, security professionals, veterans, career changers and anyone interested in how cyber risk connects to the real world. It’s easy to assume the technology around us will always work… But when those systems fail, get disrupted or are manipulated, the real question is whether we still know how to respond. 🛰️ Subscribe to Arcane Link for more real world conversations exploring how security decisions are made behind closed doors.

    Ai Deepfakes are fooling your loved ones!

    Is your cyber defence keeping pace with today's AI-powered attacks? Or are you already a step behind without knowing it? In this episode of Arcane Link, ⁠Matt Lovell⁠, co-founder of ⁠CloudGuard⁠, shares what it really takes to defend against threats that are evolving faster than most organisations can respond, and what separates businesses that stay ahead from those that don't. Matt breaks down: Why AI-powered attacks are currently outpacing AI-powered defences The difference between being ISO 27001 certified and being genuinely secure When patching together your own SOC becomes the risk, not the solution How deepfakes and hidden email prompts are changing the attack surface Who it's for: business leaders, security professionals and anyone responsible for managing cyber risk in a rapidly changing landscape. It's easy to assume your defences are working… But the gap between detection and response is where businesses are being lost. ⚡ Subscribe to Arcane Link for more real world conversations exploring how security decisions are made behind closed doors. 💡 If you're unsure whether your security operations would hold up against today's threat landscape, it's worth speaking to the team at ⁠CloudGuard⁠ to sense-check your position before you need to rely on it. 🎧 Want support strengthening your wider security and risk posture?

    Cyber Insurance Won’t Save You If You Get This Wrong!

    If your business had a cyber incident tomorrow… Would your insurance actually hold up? In this episode of Arcane Link, ⁠Sam Johnson of RiskBox breaks down what actually happens when cyber incidents move from theory into reality. From policy wording and claims processes to the uncomfortable gaps many businesses only discover too late, this conversation explores how cyber insurance really performs when it matters most. Sam breaks down: What cyber insurance actually covers (and what it doesn’t) How insurers assess your risk Why “having a policy” doesn’t always mean you’re protected Who it’s for: business leaders, security professionals and anyone responsible for managing risk. It’s easy to focus on preventing the attack… But what happens after is where things either stabilise or spiral. 🌪️ Subscribe to Arcane Link for more real world conversations exploring how security decisions are made behind closed doors. This episode features ⁠Sam Johnson⁠, Director at ⁠RiskBox⁠. 💡 If you’re unsure whether your current cover would actually stand up in a real incident, it’s worth speaking to the team at RiskBox to sense-check your position before you need to rely on it. 🎧 Want support strengthening your wider security and risk posture? ⁠ADL Consulting⁠ helps businesses improve cyber security, risk management, and ISO 27001 readiness through practical, human centred approaches.  Visit: ⁠www.adlconsulting.co.uk
