As organizations across Africa adopt AI, automated tools and autonomous systems, the digital threat landscape is changing rapidly. Traditional security awareness training historically focused on bridging knowledge gaps, but today's most urgent challenges are fundamentally behavioral, and they involve more than just human employees.

Agent Risk Manager, KnowBe4’s AI agent security product in the KnowBe4 Platform, integrates with the Claude Compliance API to help organizations monitor Claude activity and detect risks in real time.

Securing the Tip of the Spear: Guam’s Path to Human and AI Resilience

As the Asia-Pacific and Japan (APJ) region continues its rapid digital acceleration, Guam stands at a unique strategic intersection. Serving as a critical hub for telecommunications, government services and regional defense, the island’s cybersecurity posture is no longer just a local concern, it is a cornerstone of regional stability.

Navigating the Paradigm Shift in Human Risk Management

Vietnam has emerged as a cornerstone of the global digital economy, but this rapid digitization has come with a significant surge in sophisticated cyber threats. As the country transitions into a more mature technological landscape, the methods used to protect its most critical asset, the workforce, must also evolve. We are witnessing a pivotal move away from traditional, checkbox in-person training toward modern, automated and AI-driven digital resilience.

As a CISO advisor, I am observing a familiar pattern gaining a new, critical dimension. What we historically identified as "Shadow IT", the use of unapproved SaaS and tools, is rapidly evolving into "Shadow AI."

Employees are increasingly leveraging AI bots for drafting, analysis, code generation and strategic decision-making. While the intention is often to drive efficiency, the lack of governance creates a dangerous risk surface: sensitive data leakage, compliance violations and the potential for operational decisions based on unverified, AI-generated content.

When we first introduced Agent Risk Manager, the response was clear: many security teams are actively looking for a way to secure the AI agents already running in their environment and how they can confidently adopt AI across their organization.

Discover how to apply Zero Trust principles to secure AI adoption, manage agentic risk, and mitigate the threats of frontier AI models.

Cybercrime used to have a ‘"tell." It was the digital equivalent of a villain stroking their cat - clunky grammar, misspelt links and suspicious attachments that screamed ‘phishing’.
