* **Key Message:** AI security must be in the boardroom, not just the server room.
* **Key Points:**
* No AI strategy without data and security strategy.
* Warning about “shadow AI” (unoversight tools) and AI agents digging up forgotten data (e.g., old SharePoint).
* Attack surface expanded (models, pipelines, agents, prompts).
* Breach response time dropped from 8 hours to 22 seconds.
* Need for agent-based defense (humans overseeing agentic defense).
* Security cannot be bolted on later or left to employees.
* Need unified security across all clouds/models.
3. **Drafting – Paragraph 1 (What happened):**
* Focus on Francis de Souza’s statement at the event in Los Angeles.
* Mention the core argument: security belongs in the boardroom.
* Mention the specific threats: shadow AI, forgotten data sources.
* Mention the timeline reduction (8 hours to 22 seconds).
* *Constraint Check:* British spelling (organisations, programme, etc.), Sentence case only.
4. **Drafting – Paragraph 2 (Why it matters):**

* Security cannot be bolted on later.
* Unified strategy needed across clouds.
* Shift from human-led to agentic defense.
* *Constraint Check:* Sentence case, British English.
