Breakfast Leadership Show – AI, Cybersecurity & Why Your Board Should Care
In this episode of the Breakfast Leadership Show, I sit down with cybersecurity veteran Scott Alldridge to unpack the real risks organizations face as they rush into AI adoption without governance, guardrails, or leadership oversight. With 30 years in IT and cybersecurity—and over 300,000 copies sold of the Visible Ops Handbook—Scott shares why AI Security isn’t just an IT issue… it’s a board-level responsibility.
We talk about the hidden dangers of uploading confidential information into AI tools, the human errors behind major breaches like the MGM Resorts International cyberattack, and why companies must stop treating cybersecurity as a cost center. Instead, it needs to be seen for what it truly is: revenue assurance and business survival. If you think your organization is “too small” to be targeted, you’ll want to press play on this one.
