Geopolitics has become a direct and material technology risk, and it now firmly belongs on the CISO’s agenda. 🌐 Trade disputes, sanctions, cyber espionage, and digital sovereignty are reshaping where data lives, who can access it, and how resilient our platforms really are.

Our dependence on globally distributed supply chains and a small number of predominantly US-based ☁️ cloud providers has concentrated high‑value data and critical services in a few strategic locations. In a heightened geopolitical environment, cloud data centres are now strategic infrastructure, and disruptions—malicious or not—can quickly become systemic business events.

In this article, I explore why technology is uniquely exposed to geopolitical shocks and what CISOs and technology leaders should be doing now to factor geopolitics into cloud, availability, and resilience planning.

Modern software is assembled from countless third‑party and open‑source components. And if you can’t see them, you can’t secure them. 🔎🔐

This article explains why SBOMs (Software Bills of Materials) are becoming essential for managing supply‑chain risk, strengthening incident response, and meeting rising security and compliance expectations.

If you want faster visibility, better control, and fewer surprises in your software stack, this one’s for you.

Agentic AI — autonomous 🤖 agents that can perceive, decide, and act — are entering business workflows fast. But as these non-human “digital workers” multiply, 🫆 identity has become the hidden challenge.

Most enterprises haven’t extended authentication and access controls to these agents, creating ungoverned digital personas operating at machine speed: a serious security risk.

This article explores why identity is the new frontier of AI security, and how cybersecurity leaders can govern agentic AI safely through strong authentication, lifecycle management, and accountability.
