Episode 52: Emerging Technologies and Security Architecture (e.g., IoT, AI)
Certified: The CISSP Prepcast - A podcast by Dr. Jason Edwards

Categories:
Technological innovation continues to transform the security landscape. In this episode, we examine how emerging technologies such as the Internet of Things (IoT), Artificial Intelligence (AI), and machine learning are impacting security architecture. We discuss the benefits and vulnerabilities of these systems, including expanded attack surfaces, device sprawl, privacy concerns, and autonomous decision-making risks. You’ll also learn strategies for integrating these technologies securely using layered defenses, segmentation, and monitoring. CISSPs must understand both the opportunity and risk that innovation brings to cybersecurity.
