The cybersecurity landscape is rapidly evolving, and AI stands at the forefront of this transformation. In this thought-provoking episode, Shon Gerber explores the projected $450 billion impact AI will have by 2028 and what this means for security professionals today.
With only 2% of companies having fully deployed AI solutions and 39% not yet exploring them, we're at the beginning of a massive shift that will fundamentally change how organizations approach security. Shon provides a candid assessment of why cybersecurity roles haven't yet been automated (risk aversion) and why this protection is temporary—predicting significant changes within the next five years.
For CISSP candidates, the episode delivers exceptional value through a detailed breakdown of five Domain 1 questions. Rather than simply providing correct answers, Shon dissects each question to reveal the underlying principles and reasoning. This approach helps listeners develop the critical thinking needed to succeed not just on the exam, but in real-world security scenarios.
The questions cover essential security concepts including risk treatment strategies, due diligence versus due care, professional ethics, policy versus procedure distinctions, and governance structures. Each explanation includes common points of confusion and practical workplace applications, bridging the gap between exam preparation and professional practice.
Perhaps most valuable is Shon advice on navigating ethical dilemmas in security consulting. His guidance on how to inform clients of regulatory violations while maintaining professional relationships demonstrates the nuanced people skills that separate truly effective security leaders from technical practitioners.
