Building a Culture of Security

Learn how a positive security culture can enable your business for continuous progress.   By Stephen Schmidt, Chief Information Security Officer (CISO), AWS In some security channels, the perception of fear, uncertainty, and doubt (FUD) can create a reactive environment in which employees see security as a gatekeeper or the “Department of No.” At  Amazon Web Services  (AWS), we think about security culture differently. Security should not be an obstacle to achieving your organization’s goals, but a collaborative force to propel your business safely forward. If we do our job right, security is a business enabler. As Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) at AWS, one of my favorite parts of the job is fostering a positive culture that evolves along with our technology and the world around us.

Formulate a Digital Marketing Strategy Using AI It has been quite a while since AI was introduced to the world. At first, there was an outburst of conspiracies about robots being able to talk, and thus we (as humans) were going to control of the world. The news was all about those Facebook tests and their AI chatbots’ particular language. The internet was starting to seem like a place of discomfort for many — despite all the benefits. But today, using artificial intelligence to formulate a digital marketing strategy is smart business. It’s 2019, and although people have overcome their fear of the unknown to an extent, AI is leading the world by the hand. AI is still a part of almost everything. We see AI in: Smart Kitchens. Laptops. Smart Mobiles. Smart TV’s Chatbots. Cars. Even door locks have the “smart” technology to recognize your fingerprint or voice — and let you in. The mere reason for this “smart” technology is to understand the consumer
