i
want
to
start
off
with
the
consumer
impact
if
you
don't
mind
according
to
your
research
and
your
data
breaches
hacks
whatever
you
want
to
call
and
they're
gonna
cost
consumers
about
fifteen
billion
dollars
this
year
how
so
what
areas
are
we
being
impacted
this
costing
us
that
Frank Holland (Anchor)
00:12.710
much
money
Vincent Pilette (CEO)
00:14.270
definitely
and
and
moving
forward
i
think
two
thousand
twenty
six
will
be
that
year
where
the
human
intuition
if
you
want
will
be
behind
the
digital
world
all
powered
by
AI
the
line
between
reality
and
and
and
fake
will
become
harder
to
trust
and
to
judge
and
so
human
Vincent Pilette (CEO)
00:32.790
verification
for
consumers
will
be
absolutely
essential
you'll
see
the
online
truth
and
trust
awards
synthetic
identity
scraping
your
personal
data
combining
that
with
big
data
together
fake
AI
powered
persona
to
to
create
financial
damage
will
be
all
over
the
consumers
just
in
Vincent Pilette (CEO)
00:54.350
these
seasons
we've
now
right
now
blocked
a
hundred
and
forty
thousand
AI
powered
e-commerce
fake
websites
and
that's
all
around
attacking
the
the
consumers
and
trying
to
tap
into
their
world
OK
Frank Holland (Anchor)
01:06.870
do
your
enterprise
customers
face
some
of
the
same
challenges
and
look
at
some
of
the
names
or
some
of
the
biggest
names
in
business
there's
amazon
there's
city
there's
rocket
there's
capital
one
a
lot
of
big
name
companies
a
lot
of
us
rely
on
for
you
know
services
buying
things
Frank Holland (Anchor)
01:20.910
getting
access
to
our
money
et
cetera
what
kind
of
threats
and
and
issues
are
they
facing
is
it
similar
to
the
consumer
Vincent Pilette (CEO)
01:28.430
definitely
so
first
of
all
we
are
protecting
the
consumer
all
about
the
consumer
but
you
are
right
that
companies
that
you
mentioned
will
face
a
continued
increase
in
cyber
attacks
they'll
be
bigger
they'll
be
more
sophisticated
they'll
become
systematic
exploiting
this
broader
Vincent Pilette (CEO)
01:44.510
surface
now
around
AI
supply
chain
financial
system
and
i
guess
this
common
denominator
between
consumer
risk
and
company
risk
is
really
the
identity
that's
the
new
battleground
between
businesses
where
the
attackers
are
really
trying
to
increase
their
surface
using
AI
and
now
Vincent Pilette (CEO)
02:03.790
using
generative
AI
to
really
attack
consumers
at
scale
being
personal
one
to
one
relationship
all
right
Frank Holland (Anchor)
02:11.830
there's
a
lot
of
big
cybersecurity
companies
out
there
and
platformization
is
a
trend
where
the
cybersecurity
companies
they
try
to
combine
a
number
of
services
instead
of
being
specialized
i
want
to
talk
to
you
just
about
what
your
customers
are
saying
to
you
about
Frank Holland (Anchor)
02:23.630
platformization
and
the
impact
on
their
business
we
have
the
outage
from
crowdstrike
we
have
one
from
aws
cuts
everything
down
when
you're
talking
to
customers
are
they
trying
to
diversify
their
vendors
are
they
trying
to
diversify
their
solutions
do
they
come
to
you
to
try
to
Frank Holland (Anchor)
02:35.870
find
some
type
of
solution
to
mitigate
something
like
that
from
happening
again
Vincent Pilette (CEO)
02:39.950
so
platformization
is
definitely
a
trend
and
that's
because
the
threat
landscape
is
very
dynamic
it
can
change
from
attacking
a
device
to
attacking
a
user
attacking
an
identity
trying
to
to
breach
your
your
privacy
and
so
having
a
full
visibility
across
the
threat
landscape
and
Vincent Pilette (CEO)
02:55.190
providing
an
end
to
end
solution
is
absolutely
key
all
of
the
security
vendors
you've
mentioned
are
focused
on
the
enterprise
and
and
maybe
the
SMB
market
we
are
focused
on
the
consumer
and
we're
following
exactly
the
same
strategy
we're
building
a
full
comprehensive
defense
Vincent Pilette (CEO)
03:11.270
around
your
personal
digital
footprint
whether
that
is
on
text
on
voice
on
on
the
web
Frank Holland (Anchor)
03:17.390
but
then
how
does
that
protect
against
a
crowd
strike
or
something
like
that
happening
does
the
footprint
mean
you
can
just
bring
all
my
my
data
and
everything
back
up
if
we
have
an
outage
and
how
do
you
work
around
these
outages
when
again
platformization
has
led
to
such
Frank Holland (Anchor)
03:29.510
concentration
of
services
where
a
crowd
strike
can
just
pretty
much
crash
rate
outage
or
update
that
doesn't
go
quite
right
i
want
to
be
clear
it's
not
just
crowd
strike
but
can
shut
down
just
about
everything
Vincent Pilette (CEO)
03:40.630
yes
and
and
this
is
different
for
consumer
the
biggest
risk
is
the
data
breach
that
will
not
happen
with
their
personal
data
they
have
in
their
environment
but
will
happen
with
a
bridge
into
that
enterprise
environment
that
is
protected
by
some
of
those
security
vendor
you've
Vincent Pilette (CEO)
03:54.110
seen
that
there
are
still
some
some
risk
and
you
mentioned
many
breaches
here
as
we
started
this
this
discussion
and
those
data
are
being
stolen
put
on
the
dark
web
then
bad
bad
actors
will
scrape
that
creating
fake
identities
and
trying
to
fool
you
into
giving
personal
Vincent Pilette (CEO)
04:11.190
information
we
are
doing
exactly
that
so
while
the
hackers
are
using
AI
to
do
all
of
those
bad
acting
we're
using
AI
to
better
predict
where
your
risk
will
be
how
you
how
you
data
is
sitting
in
the
in
the
in
the
web
and
helping
you
clean
up
if
you
want
your
digital
information
Vincent Pilette (CEO)
04:28.150
we
alert
Frank Holland (Anchor)
04:28.830
you
and
then
if
we
need
breach
we
have
insurance
and
restoration
services
