Ingenuity Unleashed: Security in the AI Age

In an era where security breaches and IT failures are making headlines—from the SolarWinds hack to the CrowdStrike fallout—traditional IT and security auditing has never been more critical.

Join us for a provocative discussion on why, despite the rise of result driven "SOC-in-a-box" solutions, the value of traditional auditing combined with evidence driven data is more relevant than ever. We'll explore the challenges that have emerged over recent years, how many of these result driven tickbox automated solutions fall short, and why evidence led, data-driven, continuous auditing is not just a trend but a necessity for the future of compliance and security.

This webinar will delve into the importance of robust IT/security auditing practices, their vital role in safeguarding your organization, and how they remain our best defense against evolving threats.

We will look at the difference between a budget and a premium audit, discuss point in time vs. continuous evidence and talk about why Anecdotes is partnering with top tier audit firms like Schellman to transform compliance in large scale enterprises. Don't miss this opportunity to engage with experts and challenge the status quo—because the future of compliance depends on it.

Following this discussion we will be opening up for questions from our audience.
