Joe Cortale liked thisJoe Cortale liked thisThis picture was taken during probably the worst anxiety/depression spiral I’ve had in over 3 years. Funny enough, when I posted it people kept telling me how good I looked. Meanwhile my close friends knew I had lost 15 pounds, was forcing myself to eat, and could barely get out of bed half the time. That’s social media for you lol. A good picture really doesn’t mean someone is doing okay. Sales also has a way of amplifying whatever’s already going on in your life, which is why having things outside of work that ground you is so important. Anyways. Just a reminder to take care of your brain because bad months pass, but frying your nervous system for a job is insane.

Joe Cortale liked thisJoe Cortale liked thisToday we release the Thales #2026BadBotReport, exposing a staggering 12.5x increase in AI-driven bot attacks in 2025. Bots now represent over half of all internet traffic, with 40% classified as malicious. The rise of AI agents as a new traffic type is blurring the lines between legitimate and harmful automation. This shift means businesses can no longer rely solely on blocking bots; they must understand the intent behind automated interactions and strengthen protections around APIs and identity systems. Attackers are increasingly bypassing traditional security systems to target critical business logic at scale. This report provides essential insights to help businesses stay ahead of evolving bot threats. Download it here: https://lnkd.in/eFfbmWU3

Joe Cortale liked thisJoe Cortale liked thisRead all about it! I'm excited to announce the launch of our #2026BadBotReport: Bad Bots in the Agentic Age. 🤖 This report marks our 13th consecutive edition and highlights how automation is reshaping the internet. It reveals a fundamental shift in how the internet operates, where bots now account for over half of all internet traffic, with 40% classified as malicious. AI is transforming automation into something organizations must not only defend against but also manage. Bots are blurring the line between legitimate and malicious activity, making intent, not identity, the key security challenge. Attackers are increasingly targeting APIs and identity systems, bypassing front-end defenses to directly exploit core business logic at scale. Read the full report now to understand why managing AI-powered automation is critical for securing modern digital infrastructure. https://lnkd.in/eQa6Mjp8 #ThalesCybersecurity #Imperva #BadBotReport

Joe Cortale liked thisJoe Cortale liked thisLast week at FutureCon Tdot, I took the stage to talk about the invisible siege...Not ransomware. Not zero-days. Just… blind spots. I had the chance to share why API sprawl has become an invisible siege for so many security leaders and why CISOs and CIOs often don't have the visibility they need until it's too late. But the best part? The booth conversations after the talk. Diverse organizations. Honest struggles. Real momentum toward better API security. Thank you to everyone who trusted us with your time and your challenges. We're here to help. #FutureCon #APISecurity #ThankYou #APIsprawl #Thales

Best one-line takeaway from Jeff Luna's speaking session FutureCon CyberSecurity Events in Baltimore last..."If it can't be defended in the boardroom, it won't be funded." With so many cyber tools already in the stack, and countless others available, boards are asking tough questions. Jeff addressed it in his session, "Beyond the Dashboard: Translating 2026 Cyber Risks into Boardroom ROI." Stay tuned, Centripetal will be hosting an encore digital event featuring this topic. 🔥 #cyberintelligence, #threatintelligence #cyberROI #CISO #SecOps #cyberBoardofDirectors

U.S. SLTT organizations are working hard to strengthen their cybersecurity posture, even with limited resources. The MS-ISAC plays a critical role by giving under‑resourced communities access to threat intelligence, 24x7x365 U.S.-based SOC monitoring, and affordable tools that support operational resilience. Read more about how these services help close resilience gaps across the country. #MSISAC #SLTTCyber #CyberDefense

AI is racing ahead. The real question is: how do you keep it trusted, safe, and useful without slowing it down? Think in terms of the Five Cs: Clarity – know what AI you’re using Collaboration – make it everyone’s job Controls – put up guardrails, not roadblocks Culture – turn policies into habits Continuous assurance – test and monitor nonstop Governance isn’t the brake pedal. It’s the steering wheel. Which of these do you see organizations missing the most? Looking forward to this ISACA event in NYC next week. Stop by and connect during my session. See you there.

It’s where your narrative either lands or gets lost. If your message isn’t clear, differentiated, and built to scale across every touchpoint, you’re leaving impact on the table.”

Hey Chief Marketing Officers, She was frustrated. “Our team is invisible to @90% of the executives in our top accounts. Sure, we have a few exceptions. I know we don’t have an executive track at our user conference, or CISO Dinners, and we didn’t do the RSA platinum sponsorship this year..” But that’s NOT why her team isn’t connecting with these customer executives. I’d just gotten off a call with this CMO. She’s brilliant. Strategic. And frustrated. I told her this: It’s not your Programs. This starts with your PEOPLE. 🤼 There are many components to the People equation- here are a few: If you're a security company, do you have field CISOs or CTOs mapped to your top accounts? If you're in fintech, are your industry strategists and experts in the room, or even in the text threads where renewal decisions are being made? Do you have an Executive Sponsor Program that's the ARROW to create a unified executive customer journey for your Top Accounts? One that delivers the right program to the right executive at the right time? Because here’s what’s changed: 👉 The average B2B deal now has 22 people involved. Up from 4. 👉 AI is compressing sales cycles and inflating buyer expectations. It’s no longer about owning the funnel. It's about matching the tempo of buying behavior. 👉 Execs don’t want another dinner. They want their ride-or-die co-pilot. Someone who answers the red phone, reads the road ahead, and helps them successfully hit the apex at speed.” I know you want to be relevant with the C-suite! So great news....you don’t need "another" marketing program. You need a relationship map. The fastest route to winning with CxOs? Start building today, an executive-to-executive relationship PROGRAM (not just an executive mapping exercise in Salesforce) before risk hits, and before your competitor does. Don’t just protect renewals. Earn loyalty. Build influence. Dominate your category with an Executive Sponsor Program sponsored by your CEO. Are your people in position in your Top Accounts? I’ve designed and delivered 20+ Executive Sponsor Programs in the Global 2000. Yeah…I’ve been doing this work for 24 years. If you want to be the brand executives turn to when the road gets fast and foggy, now’s your time:-) The CMO's I work with are building relevance at speed. Accelerating deals, locking in renewals, and earning trusted-seat status in every Top Account. My Executive Sponsor Program is your pit crew for relevance with executives. We match your top minds to your top accounts, so you're not just in the race… you're pulling ahead. Let’s build the engine behind your market leadership. Send me a message. Let’s talk. PS> I race vintage and modern cars and was feeling FIRED up when I got off this call. 🏁 PPS> That photo is of me in Italy! 🇮🇹 #ExecutiveSponsorProgram #EnterpriseSales #ExecutiveCustomerEngagement #CMOInsights #BrandRelevance

🚨 Phishing Alert in K-12: NJDOE Impersonation Campaign 🚨 The NJCCIC recently flagged a phishing attack targeting school districts by impersonating the NJ Department of Education. At first glance, the email looks official: ✔️ Subject: NJDOESECURE: Charitable Grant Details Report ✔️ NJDOE logos and formatting ✔️ A button to View Grant Details Report Here’s the catch: ⚠️ Users are led to a fake login page ⚠️ Attackers steal credentials and MFA codes ⚠️ The “secure document” never appears Why it matters? K-12 districts are prime targets because attackers know: 🔴 Educators juggle too many priorities 🔴 IT teams are often understaffed and underfunded 🔴 Grants and funding emails are perfect social-engineering lures 📊 The FBI IC3 Report shows nearly 1 in 3 ransomware attacks last year hit education, with phishing as the leading entry point. 💡 3 key takeaways for K-12 security teams: 1️⃣ Don’t trust, verify unexpected requests 2️⃣ Harden email defenses beyond legacy tools 3️⃣ Act fast: reset credentials, revoke tokens, and check inbox rules 👉 The bigger picture: Email is still the #1 attack vector in education. Teachers shouldn’t have to spot every fake. At Abnormal AI, we help school districts stop these attacks by blocking advanced phishing, account takeovers, and social engineering that slip past traditional defenses. 💬 If you’re seeing the same threats in your school system and want to stop them, let’s connect. Reach out to schedule time to learn how Abnormal can help. 🔗 Full Article: https://lnkd.in/eaJFBWtH #Cybersecurity #K12Education #EmailSecurity #PublicSector #Phishing #AbnormalSecurity #AbnormalAI New Jersey Association of School Technology Officials (NJASTO)
