In this episode of TechTalks with Cloudflare, we sit down with Karissa Breen, Founder of KBI.Media, to unpack how artificial intelligence is reshaping the cybersecurity landscape in Australia and beyond.
A former cybersecurity practitioner turned journalist, Karissa brings a rare dual perspective — combining hands-on technical experience with deep industry insight from years of speaking with global security leaders. As a recognised thought leader and media founder, she has a front-row seat to how organisations are responding to increasingly sophisticated, AI-driven threats.
Together, we explore what Australian organisations are getting right — and wrong — when it comes to AI in cybersecurity. From rising concerns around AI-enabled breaches to common misconceptions about automation, Karissa shares what she’s hearing from CISOs, technologists, and business leaders on the front lines.
The conversation also dives into how AI is being integrated into modern security strategies, the role of automation in staying ahead of evolving threats, and where industries such as manufacturing, transportation, and education can build greater resilience. Beyond technology, Karissa reflects on how AI is shaping cybersecurity narratives, education, and public understanding of risk.
Grounded in real-world insights and informed by Cloudflare’s latest threat data, this episode offers practical takeaways for leaders navigating the fast path to safe AI adoption — and a clear-eyed view of the opportunities and challenges ahead.
