    From ISACA 2026 North America Conference - KB On The Go | AI Puts Its Hard Hat On: Agents, ROI, and the Governance Reset

    KB is on the ground at the ISACA 2026 North American Conference in Las Vegas, this time for the AI conversation that’s reshaping ROI, risk and governance all at once. Sushila Nair, Independent Information Security Consultant, and President of the ISACA Greater Washington D.C. chapter, opens with the AI ROI question everyone keeps circling. She walks through ISACA’s latest AI Pulse research, explains why last year’s AI was your friend and this year’s AI has put its hard hat on, and breaks down the shift from chatbots to agents that’s finally moving the numbers. One of her clients went from 4 agents in proof of concept to 140 in production this year. She also covers the workforce transformation underneath all of it, who’s getting displaced first, and why automation is the real driver of cost savings. Then Mark Thomas, Founder & President of Escoute Consulting and board advisor and ISACA hall of Fame entrant, joins to talk about what all of this means for governance and risk. He walks through ISACA’s new AAIR certification (Advanced AI Risk), why traditional frameworks aren’t outdated but incomplete, and how concepts like drift, calibration and model cards are becoming non-negotiable. His central argument: accountability has to come before architecture, and you can’t certify a moving target with a static framework.

    From Atmos SPHERE 2026 - KB On The Go | Same Fight, Different Languages

    KB takes the mic behind the scenes at SPHERE 2026 by Atmos, where 1,500 people from across cyber, legal, tech and government packed a room to do something rare: shift the entire industry’s focus from the moment of crisis to what comes before it. In two conversations, Reece Corbett-Wilkins and Leah Pinto reflect on the day, the speakers, and what it actually takes to change an industry’s centre of gravity. Then Anthony Cooke, James Blakely and Michael Boyd unpack why government can be a friend and a facilitator rather than the fun police, the trust that limited use disclosure has unlocked, and what frameworks like Horizon 2 mean for the small businesses sitting at the underbelly of every supply chain. A practical, hopeful look at collaboration, accountability and what cyber resilience looks like when everyone in the room speaks the same language.

    From ISACA 2026 North America Conference - KB On The Go | Built on Borrowed Tools: Supply Chain Risk and the AI ROI Flip

    KB is on the ground at ISACA 2026 North American Conference in Las Vegas, sitting down with two guests pulling at the same thread from different angles: the gap between how dependent we’ve become on modern tools and how little we actually understand them. First, Pam Nigro, SVP of Security and Security Officer at Medecision and Board Director at ISACA, unpacks why supply chain has become the most vulnerable area in cyber security right now. She gets into the hidden risks sitting inside SaaS dependencies, API chains and open source libraries deployed once and forgotten, what operational paralysis actually looks like when a critical tool goes down, and why companies need to stop treating supply chain as a vendor risk checkbox and start treating it as a resilience problem. Then Asaf Weisberg, CEO of introSight and Board Director at ISACA, joins to flip the AI ROI conversation. While recent ISACA research shows most companies still can’t measure return on AI investment, Asaf argues the ROI is already obvious if you know where to look. He breaks down why traditional ROI calculations don’t fit AI, what’s happening inside software teams right now with tools like Claude Code, and the very real risk of leaking your most valuable IP through free AI subscriptions.

    From Atmos SPHERE 2026 - KB On The Go | Resilience And Recovery

    In this episode of KB on the Go, recorded at Atmos SPHERE 2026, Karissa Breen brings together two conversations united by one uncomfortable truth: we have built fast, efficient, hyper connected societies, and quietly traded away our resilience. First, Karissa sits down with Admiral Mike Rogers, Global Advisory Board member at CyberCX, and Alastair MacGibbon, Independent Adviser, to unpack what real national resilience looks like in 2026. They explore why cyber is no longer just about protecting data, but about availability and integrity, what happens when you can no longer trust the systems you depend on, and why it so often takes a crisis before meaningful change happens. Then, Karissa is joined by Heather Osborne, Director of Global Events and Programming at NetDiligence, and Stefanie Luhrs, Partner, First Response at Atmos, to dig into what the 2026 cyber loss data is really telling us. The conversation covers the rising cost of business interruption, the long tail of human and reputational impact after a breach, the strain on B2B relationships, and the wave of regulatory activity expected in Australia over the next twelve months. Two conversations, one shared message: we are optimised for cheapest and fastest, but not for when things break, and resilience is the conversation we keep putting off.
