Show Notes

We had originally planned on a discussion about Threat Intel AI this week, but after some discussions with a few vendors, I don't think that the current "state of the art" is worth discussing yet.  Still Alpha products.

So instead, there were a couple of really big announcements this week, so we discuss those in some depth.  We will get back to Threat Intel next episode! 

Article 1 - SEC Charges SolarWinds and Chief Information Security Officer with Fraud, Internal Control Failures
Supporting Articles:
SEC sues SolarWinds and CISO, says they ignored flaws that led to major hack

Article 2 - FACT SHEET: President Biden Issues Executive Order on Safe, Secure, and Trustworthy Artificial Intelligence
Supporting Articles:
Cyber pros praise Biden executive order on artificial intelligence
Eliezer Yudkowsky on the Dangers of AI
Your phone vs. Supercomputers
Why Biden’s AI Executive Order Only Goes So Far
