OversAIght – doesn’t change much

The Dutch Central Bank released a discussion paper on general principles on AI in Finance which you can read here. On the surface, it seems rather well thought out. But as it is a discussion paper, there’s ample room for discussion…

Starting with the decades-old big error of apparently haphazard classification of risks. When the classification isn’t mutually exclusive and collectively exhaustive, one loses the ground for hope of any suitable quality of subsequent classification(s). For example, this happened with the operational risk classification in the Basel-II framework, left dangling in versions ‑III and ‑IV for apparent reasons. And now again, we see in the principles, quite some overlaps and double counting.

Fighting security risks beyond the bug

Data leaks have become an all-too-common societal problem. Still, 99% of the problems do not involve scary zero-day bugs. So why is security still hard? We need to accept that technology isn’t going to save us. Rather, thinking it can, got us in this situation in the first place. We need a new way of teaching and implementing security across our organizations. I am introducing the AVA=Risk Security Model to help us get there.

Treat Cyber risk as a science, not a dark art

As I write this piece I find myself in the midst of thousands of colleagues. Literally thousands of people who every year go on what I consider a Cyber pilgrimage. I have secluded myself for a moment in a nearby Starbucks, earplugs in I go to my favorite Spotify playlist so I can concentrate a bit better (Foo Fighters mixed with Bruce Springsteen and Radiohead). I briefly FaceTime with my kids before I go offline to hopefully write down some of the thoughts that have been racing through my mind. Looking out the window I see “handlers” everywhere, folks that hold up a sign that says “line starts here”. People everywhere. Buses passing by with advertising on it saying that you’ve already been hacked and that you should automate incident response. No kidding! Chaos in the streets of San Francisco! I love it!

Culture impacts security!

Despite having the greatest security technologies in the world, a fool with a tool is still a fool. But what defines a fool? Let us for once step beyond knowledge and experience, because even with great knowledge and experience, one can be a fool ;-(
