Choose the Talk That Fits Your Audience

Signature Talk
The Quantum Threat Is Already Here
Where quantum physics, AI, and cybersecurity collide
Your passwords, bank transfers and medical records are locked with strong encryption. The keys to those locks are handed over with math a quantum computer is expected to break, and anyone recording that handoff today can open the lock later. This talk connects quantum computing, AI, and cybersecurity in a way that's immediately understandable and actionable.
Ideal for: Fintech, enterprise, innovation summits, executive offsites
You're Already a Target
AI, cyber threats, and why traditional security is failing
Three seconds of audio. That's all one free tool needed to make a convincing copy of a voice in McAfee's 2023 lab test, and your CEO has done hours of earnings calls. One email. One phone call. One deepfake. And your company is compromised. This is the wake-up call for every leader, manager, and employee.
Ideal for: General conferences, industry associations, leadership summits
One Breach Is Enough
The business reality of cyber risk and leadership accountability
A breach doesn't just cost money. It costs trust, momentum, and sleep. Most companies that get hit once get hit again, not because the hackers are that good, but because leadership rebuilds on the same broken foundation.
Ideal for: Boards, C-suite, PE/VC-backed companies, risk management forums
Part Two of SANS Talk of the Year
How to Survive the Future
The AI arms race, the quantum timeline, and a survival framework
Defenders got faster. Attackers got faster still. AI made the old attacks cheaper and more convincing, and quantum computing will break the locks we use to exchange keys. But the same technologies can empower defenders, if we move fast enough.
Ideal for: Tech conferences, innovation summits, SXSW, corporate events
TEDx-Ready
Quantum Leadership
What quantum physics teaches us about decision-making and human potential
A quantum computer doesn't think in ones and zeros. It holds multiple truths at the same time. It connects across impossible distances. It collapses possibility into reality the moment someone observes it. So do you.
Ideal for: TEDx, YPO/Vistage, executive retreats, leadership summits
Post-Breach Cybersecurity
What happens after ransomware, and where most companies fail
Rebuilding without prevention guarantees a second breach. Corey walks through the post-breach reality and introduces the prevention-first model that changes the equation entirely.
Ideal for: CISO roundtables, incident response conferences, managed services events
For Partners

Proven Peace of Mind, for Your Members

New
Proven Peace of Mind
Keynote or session, 30 to 60 minutes
Most security stops at monitoring, which only tells you something went wrong. The book maps 263 doors attackers use to get into a small business or a home. Nobody tackles all 263 at once. Corey walks the room through the few that matter most, live, and shows how to close them step by step and prove each one is done.
Ideal for: Small business associations, chambers, banks and credit unions, accelerators, parent and school communities
New
Cybersecurity for Small Businesses
Partner-hosted Close Your Doors workshop, 45 minutes
Your organization hosts it for its members or customers. Owners and solopreneurs bring a phone or laptop, get their free Personal Cyber Score, and close their first doors before they leave the room. Corey leads it; you bring the audience. In person or virtual.
Ideal for: Member organizations, chambers, banks, accelerators. See the partner kit
