Author: Punit Bhatia | Data Privacy, Sourcing & EU AI Act Specialist | ISO Standards June 12, 2025 Duration: 10:11

In a world racing into the AI era, security, privacy, and trust are under pressure like never before. Chief Security Officers are facing a whole new battlefield, with laws rapidly taking shape — especially in the U.S. and California. Big changes are on the horizon, like California’s new SB 468 bill, pushing for stronger protections around high-risk AI systems, while the EU’s AI Act moves in a similar direction. So, what does this mean for CISOs today — and how should they prepare? 


Join us with Nick Shevelyov and Punit Bhatia, a seasoned cybersecurity leader, former Chief Security Officer at Silicon Valley Bank, and the author of Cyber War and Peace. With years of experience defending innovation and building digital trust, Nick shares real stories, powerful lessons from history, and sharp insights into where the future is heading.
