Presented by Vincent Romney • Deputy Chief Information Security Officer, Nu Skin & Pharmanex
AI isn’t fixing cybersecurity. It’s accelerating it... for good or bad. In this keynote, Vincent Romney, author of How to Not Suck at Cybersecurity, breaks down why organizations continue to struggle with the same core security problems, and how AI is about to make those problems happen faster, at scale. Blending real-world experience, practical guidance, and a healthy dose of snark, Vincent cuts through the hype around AI to show where it actually helps, where it fails, and where it can quietly create new risks. You’ll leave with a clearer understanding of how to strengthen your fundamentals, use AI without losing control, and avoid the uncomfortable truth: if your security already sucks… AI helps you suck faster.
