In this episode of In Security podcast, Matt Sharp, Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) at Xactly shares his journey into the role of a CISO, from a decade in cybersecurity consulting and earning an MBA. Matt, along with our host and GTM leader Mike Cataffo, discuss key considerations, practical examples, real-life cases, and the crucial role of stakeholder involvement in crafting effective governance policies. He also shares the challenges of controlling shadow IT and offers insights into the art of striking the right balance in AI governance.

The next generation of cybersecurity solutions is built on a scalable cloud data platform that supports fast search, generative AI (gen AI), machine learning (ML), embedded analytics, and more, and it’s delivered where security teams already work. Security leaders at leading enterprises are building their security program with Snowflake. When security applications are plugged into the security data lake in Snowflake, the apps can leverage data and insights to make better correlations.

As the cybersecurity landscape rapidly evolves, integrating Artificial Intelligence (AI) is pivotal. Imagining the year 2030, this CISO roundtable dives into the transformative impact of AI on security strategies, offering insights and best practices, and bold predictions for the next decade. Join us for a dynamic discussion where industry-leading Chief Information Security Officers (CISOs) share their visions and foresight, exploring the limitless possibilities and challenges that lie ahead in AI-powered cybersecurity.
