🛡️ In this episode of CYBERCRIME: From the Frontline, host Bruce Sussman explores key risk factors that increase the likelihood of a cyber breach with Bitdefender Director of Cybersecurity Services, Nicholas Jackson, and Bitdefender Product Manager, Ioana Bistriceanu.  

🔊 Key topics include:
↪︎ Why too many tools can increase complexity, cost, and attack surface;
↪︎ How lack of strategy leads to security gaps across departments and regions; 
↪︎ How rigid processes can push employees toward risky workarounds; 
↪︎ Why AI adoption introduces new risks around data leakage and improper LLM use; 
↪︎ How shadow IT is evolving into shadow AI; 
↪︎ Why procurement, governance, and risk assessment must account for AI-enabled tools; 
↪︎ How organizations can reduce breach risk by focusing on fundamentals. 

The episode offers a strategic look at how everyday decisions—tools, processes, people, and AI adoption—can either strengthen security or quietly create opportunities for attackers.
