Last week, hundreds of technology and security companies issued a joint open letter on AI and cybersecurity.

Their message was clear: current security practices will not hold against AI-enabled attacks, and organizations should respond with the urgency of a serious incident.

So, what happens now?

In late August, more than 100 of the largest technology and security companies published a joint open letter on AI and cybersecurity. The signatories include OpenAI, Anthropic, Google, Microsoft, and Amazon Web Services, alongside security vendors such as CrowdStrike, Okta, and Fortinet. Their messa...

Before approving a data-center agreement, local leaders should be able to answer one simple question: If the company or tenant behind this project walked away in year four, what in this agreement protects our community?

If there isn't a clear answer, there may be more negotiating to do.

Data centers can bring enormous economic benefits to small communities. They can also create a new kind of risk that many towns are not used to managing. Ellendale, North Dakota, is a good example. Following the arrival of an Applied Digital data-center campus, the town of roughly 1,100 people has.....

Many thanks to our partners at the Los Angeles County Sanitation Districts for sharing this thoughtful testimonial about our partnership!

"Our agency issued an RFP to hire a consultant to assess our insurance and risk management program and practices. RiskVersity submitted an offer and was selected as our consultant. The synergy was evident from proposal submission through project completion. RiskVersity listened to the Districts’ challenges and offered adaptable solutions aligned with our business pace. They didn’t try to “sell” us anything; they brought much-needed advice and provided directional options for our future consideration."

What does it take for enterprise risk management to earn a seat at the executive table?

That's the question Laurence Jones has spent more than two decades helping organizations answer.

We're proud to share that Laurence will be a featured speaker at the Advanced Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) Workshop on September 17, where he'll discuss how ERM can move beyond compliance to create value, build resilience, and strengthen leadership decision-making.

If you're ready to elevate your organization's approach to risk, we hope you'll join us in Cincinnati.

Today, France and Spain will face off in the World Cup Semifinals. If you've tuned into any of the matches, you've witnessed the massive crowds filling every seat in some of the largest stadiums and arenas in the US. In fact, this World Cup is the largest in history.

And you better believe that for YEARS leading up to these matches, the discussion of security, risk, prevention, and emergency preparedness has been on the minds of organizations, city leaders, and event planners.

How do we prepare for millions of people, many of whom are traveling to the US for the first time, to enter our cities and find sufficient transportation, lodging, food, internet access, and emergency services, if needed?

The World Cup is teaching all of us what it means to be prepared.

When it comes to leadership, our team is often demonstrating their skills and talents outside of their RiskVersity responsibilities.

This summer, Jeanne Johnson Holmes is making a difference at Early College at Guilford, a high school located in Greensboro, by serving as the chapter advisor of DECA.

DECA is an international student organization that focuses on preparing emerging leaders and entrepreneurs for careers in marketing, finance, hospitality, and management.

Jeanne is gearing up for a special summer camp for incoming 8th and 9th graders to learn the basics of business, giving them a head start academically, socially, and developmentally in the world of leadership and business management.

We're proud of our team and the work they do, both within RiskVersity and beyond!
