When we talk about securing an organisation’s assets, we most often mean its data, devices, servers, or accounts, but are we doing enough to secure the group of people leading the company? Or the ones doing high risk work on behalf of the organisation?
To discuss the importance of securing high-risk individuals, like journalists, politicians and executives, Robby is joined by an expert in this field, Runa Sandvik, journalist, security researcher and founder of Granitt. At Granitt, Runa works with digital security for journalists and other at-risk people, building on her experiences working at The New York Times, Freedom of the Press Foundation and The Tor Project.
During the conversation, they talk about how to secure devices when travelling to high-risk countries, what tools to use and at what time, and how threat actors usually target individuals. Runa also shares how she works to secure accounts and devices for her clients.

For this episode, Robby is once again joined by Eoin Wickens, Technical Research Director at HiddenLayer, an organisation doing security for Machine learning (ML) and Artificial Intelligence (AI).
It is not too long ago since Eoin last visited the podcast, (only 7 months,) but lots has happened in the world of AI since. During the episode, he talks about some of the most significant changes and developments he’s seen the last months, how models are getting smarter, smaller and more specific, and he revisits his crystal ball predictions last episode.
Robby and Eoin discuss potential security risks posed by using AI tools, how to secure AI powered tools, and what you should think about before using them. Eoin also gives some new crystal ball predictions and recommendations to organisations starting to utilise AI adjacent technologies.

Operationalising threat intelligence is back on topic for the mnemonic security podcast!
Making a return to the podcast is Joe Slowik from MITRE Corporation, where he is the CTI Lead for MITRE ATT&CK and also Principal Engineer for Critical Infrastructure Threat Intelligence. Also joining is Jeff Schiemann, an industry veteran and CISO at one of the world's first crypto banks.
The conversation ventures across how security teams are currently using threat intelligence, the importance of frameworks and standardisation, and the role AI and automation may play for defenders and adversaries. The trio also share their thoughts on a future where threat intelligence decisions can be automated in real-time, and what might take to get us there.
