Prophylactic AI Security: Why a Proactive Strategy Matters More Than Ever

-

Tigran Petrosian Before working in IT security, I was a tournament chess player. One of my greatest influences was World Champion Tigran Petrosian—known not for flashy attacks, but for his near-supernatural ability to anticipate his opponent's plans and neutralize threats before they happened. That skill, known in chess as prophylaxis , is one that the world of cybersecurity desperately needs to adopt. From Chess to Cybersecurity: The Power of Prophylaxis Prophylaxis in chess is the ability to anticipate your opponent’s strategy and block it before they execute it. Petrosian’s style wasn’t dramatic or aggressive, but it was extremely effective. He rarely lost. In much the same way, cybersecurity professionals must anticipate and neutralize risks before they evolve into threats.

Remember the Mobile Devices

           There is probably no topic of contention that I encounter more as an IT security consultant and auditor than mobile device security. People and organizations just don’t want to secure themselves against mobile devices. The excuses are numerous: ·         Regulating employee mobile devices will lower morale. ·         Employees will think we are spying on them. ·         Other organizations allow their employees to use mobile devices freely. ·         No one worries about mobile device security anymore. I have even heard many of these statements from other information security professionals, including the last statement. DON’T BE FOOLED! Mobile devices are a serious risk to your organization. I have appeared on the news three times in the last few years to speak about attacks and threats targetin...
