Replay: Tailored Advice for High-Net-Worth Clients

When AI learns to hack: What every advisor needs to know

From the early days of “you’ve got mail” to today’s AI-powered cyberattacks, the digital world has evolved—and so have the risks. In this episode, we sit down with Chief Information Security Officer Renana Friedlich to unpack the new reality of cybersecurity: a fast-moving, high-stakes battleground where threats are more frequent, more sophisticated, and closer to home than ever before. What was once a concern for large enterprises is now a daily risk for businesses of every size—and even a single click can bring operations to a halt. With AI accelerating both attacks and defenses, the window between vulnerability and exploitation has shrunk from years to mere hours, raising the stakes for everyone. You’ll hear real-world stories of ransomware attacks, the emotional and financial impact of breaches, and why many organizations aren’t prepared for what’s coming next. But this isn’t about fear—it’s about action. We explore how layered defenses, smart habits, and the right partners can make all the difference in protecting your business, your clients, and your future.
