In this episode, Jason Loomis, CISO at Freshworks, examines why most enterprises have not yet resolved the tension between AI deployment speed and security maturity, and outlines a sequenced approach; beginning with regulatory compliance, advancing through data trust, and extending into AI-specific security frameworks. The conversation covers how leadership can build the investment case for AI, how culture shapes adoption outcomes, and why the biggest executive mistake is expecting returns before committing the resources that make them possible.
