When we started recording podcasts, Sean Martin and I put writing on pause for a bit—but now it’s back, not just in our individual newsletters but also in our event coverage. I enjoy writing, and I plan to do even more with my Musings on Society & #Technology newsletter here on LinkedIn.
That said…
Here’s my final article (#4) from the ITSPmagazine Podcasts coverage of ThreatLocker’s Zero Trust World 2025 (#ZTW25). In this piece, I reflect on the intersection of society, cybersecurity, innovation, and disruption, inspired by the final keynote from Reggie Fils-Aime, former President and COO of #Nintendo.
"The Disruptive Edge: Innovation, #Cybersecurity, and the Future of a #ZeroTrust Society."
Throughout our coverage, we tackled the evolution of cyber threats, the dark web, supply chain security, #cybercriminals tactics, and now, in this final piece, we turn our focus to the bigger picture.
From Reggie Fils-Aime’s insights on disciplined, disruptive innovation to Danny Jenkins’ closing words on embedding security into everything we build, the event left us with one key question: Is innovation moving too fast for security to keep up, or are we finally embedding security at the core of progress?
For centuries, innovation was slow. Then came the Industrial Revolution, and today, we live in an era of hyper-acceleration, where disruption isn’t a choice—it’s a given. #AI, #automation, and cybersecurity threats evolve faster than we can regulate or adapt. But is this pace making us stronger, or is security still an afterthought?
Are we innovating responsibly?
Are we embedding security into progress?
Are we disrupting for the right reasons?
Huge thanks to #ThreatLocker for bringing us together in Orlando for these critical discussions and to the incredible speakers who shaped our coverage.
As Danny Jenkins put it best:
"Security isn’t a feature you add later—it’s the foundation of everything we build."
