The ITSPmagazine Podcast

This is a story that you haven’t heard yet, but we guarantee that it won’t be the last of its kind. It is a tale of art, technology, digital collectors, Artificial Intelligence, creativity, NFTs (Non-fungible tokens), and so much more.It starts with a painter that has spent precious time creating an original piece of art. As soon as the brush rests on the table, an art critic judges the job, forcing the artist to start over again and do better. The painter returns to work, the critic weights in again, and the process repeats until the antagonist is fooled. Finally, the adversarial challenge is over; the piece is minted and eventually sold to a human collector. Because you see, the artist is AI. And so is the critic.Now the collector that acquired the piece is challenged as well. A new decision must be made: keeping the digital art, auctioning it, or obtaining a second one and eventually renounce both to create a new unique piece of the two originals that will be “burned” to give life to the new one and eventually be acquired, potentially changed by the new owners that will add yet another chapter to the history of the piece.  An ever-changing art story is possible because of AI, NFTs, and the human creativity that fuels art.So, can Artificial Intelligence be an artist? Can it be it on its own, or it must have the human input to be considered such?Of this and much more, we talk in this podcast with Ben Kovalis and Marco Ciappelli.Enjoy, and let us know your thoughts about the matter. Whether you are a digital or human entity, either way, we will treasure your feedback. 😬_____________________________GuestBen KovalisOn Linkedin | https://www.linkedin.com/in/ben-kovalis/On Twitter | https://twitter.com/Ben_Kovalis_____________________________This Episode’s SponsorsBlue Lava: https://itspm.ag/blue-lava-w2qsNintex: https://itspm.ag/itspntweb_____________________________For more podcast stories from Audio Signals: https://www.itspmagazine.com/audio-signals_____________________________ResourcesAn NFT Guide for Newcomershttps://www.altcoinbuzz.io/nft/an-nft-guide-for-newcomers/NFT Newshttps://www.altcoinbuzz.io/author/aidan/page/2/Open Sea reference to what was discussedThis is the first collection that consists of 10k pieces: https://opensea.io/collection/eponym This is the second generation collection of highly curated pieces: https://opensea.io/collection/eponym-gen2_____________________________For more podcast stories from Audio Signals: https://www.itspmagazine.com/audio-signalsAre you interested in sponsoring an ITSPmagazine Channel?👉 https://www.itspmagazine.com/podcast-series-sponsorships Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

It seems that nearly every enterprise is in the midst of a cloud transformation. This begs the question, how and where does information security transformation fit in to this bigger IT and business picture?That's exactly what we get to discuss with our guest, Helen Oakley, as she shares some thought-provoking insights regarding secure cloud transformation strategies, roadmaps, and best practices.

This is certainly not a new or revolutionary statement: "Words Matter." What is new nowadays is the pace at which our business, relationships, and society change. Technology is fueling many of these changes, and we are all learning new ways as we go. As we're trying to figure out what we are doing and where we're going to go next, the words we use to describe the world around us matter even more than ever. We must understand the power of our words and how they may land depending on who gets to hear them. In short, we need to use them wisely and adapt them to the audience we are talking to — especially in a highly technical field such as cybersecurity; we sure need to think more about the matter if we want to be heard and understood.Join us and our guest, Demetrios Lazarikos (Laz), for a candid conversation about how words shaped his own life, shaped his company [listen to the Blue Lava origin story here], and how they helped him learn to be a student of the business as a 3-time CISO. It's important to know your audience, tailor the message to them, and choose your words wisely.There's a moral to this story, and Laz's words matter immensely for those seeking to run an information security program that not only protects the business but also helps it achieve its objectives.Note: This story contains promotional content. Learn more.____________________________GuestsDemetrios Lazarikos (Laz)On Linkedin 👉https://www.linkedin.com/in/iamlaz/On Twitter 👉https://twitter.com/otrwithlaz____________________________Be sure to visit Blue Lava at https://itspm.ag/blue-lava-w2qs to learn more about their team and their offering.Words Matter Blog: https://www.blue-lava.net/blog/words-matter-what-is-the-language-used-between-business-leaders-and-cisosThe Blue Lava origin story podcast: https://www.itspmagazine.com/their-stories/the-blue-lava-origin-story-a-blue-lava-story-with-co-founders-demetrios-lazarikos-laz-julia-tran-jonna-melinauskas-and-andy-hoernecke____________________________Are you interested in telling your story?https://www.itspmagazine.com/telling-your-story Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

The problem is not the problem, it is the way you think about the problem. Get outside the box.Fear, manipulation, influence and deceit are some of the most powerful tools in the arsenal used by nation state attackers and criminal actors. The most significant breaches have not occurred just because of flaws in software, or lack of proper controls. They have occurred because of the flaws in our way of thinking about the problems. Determined adversaries will use every tool in order to gain an advantage whether it’s hardware, software or wetware.Join us as our guest, Morgan Wright, takes us into the mind of the attackers from a non-technical view and explore the psychology of cybersecurity.GuestMorgan WrightOn LinkedIn | https://www.linkedin.com/in/morganwright150/On Twitter | https://twitter.com/morganwright_us____________________________This Episode’s SponsorsArcher: https://itspm.ag/rsaarchwebHITRUST: https://itspm.ag/itsphitweb____________________________ResourcesSector CA Session: https://sector.ca/sessions/what-elon-musk-and-spacex-can-teach-us-about-ransomware-and-cybersecurity/More from Morgan: https://www.morganwright.us/____________________________To see and hear more Redefining Security content on ITSPmagazine, visit:https://www.itspmagazine.com/redefining-securityAre you interested in sponsoring an ITSPmagazine Channel?👉 https://www.itspmagazine.com/podcast-series-sponsorships Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

In this fifth episode, the group gets into some real-world stories where multiple workflows come together in an orchestrated fashion to amplify the investments in workflow management and automation exponentially.In the previous four episodes, we looked at what it takes to transition from manual, human-driven (frequently paper-bound) processes to an operating environment where applications can handle tasks with very little human interaction. This doesn't mean that everything can (and should be) automated. Quite the opposite is true in some cases. But, once processes have been automated, it sure is fun (and valuable) to find ways to connect them all in exciting and meaningful ways.When an organization wants to get more out of the processes they've already automated, that's where orchestration comes into play. Picture a conductor conducting an orchestra comprised of different sections -- brass, winds, percussion. This is what automated business processes can look like -- all coming together to create a symphony of goodness in areas such as:Systems and humans (employees)IT and OT (medical/healthcare)Apps, devices, and sensors (city bike rentals)AI and Robots (manufacturing)Customers and their experience (theme parks)Listen to get some insight that can be applied to your digital business processes now and in the future. This is a 5-part podcast series with Nintex thought leaders and solutions partners. The series walks through the lifecycle of employing business process management (BPM) and business process automation (BPA) throughout the organization.______________________The 5 episodes in this series include:DEFINITIONCONSTRUCTIONEXECUTIONAUTOMATIONORCHESTRATIONThis contains promotional content.
