You Can't Automate What You Don't Know: Why Visibility Is the Top Automation Priority for 2025

Automation promises faster deployments, fewer errors and greater efficiency—but what if the biggest barrier isn't technical at all? Many organizations are charging ahead with automation strategies without a clear understanding of their own IT environments. In this episode of WWT Presents Research host Robb Boyd sits down with Nick Thompson Distinguished Solutions Architect at World Wide Technology, to explore the foundational role of infrastructure visibility in automation success.

Shadow AI: The Threat You Didn't See Coming

AI is transforming the enterprise—but with great power comes great vulnerability. As organizations race to adopt AI technologies, they're also opening the door to a new, often invisible threat: shadow AI. These unsanctioned tools operate beyond traditional oversight, exposing gaps that legacy security frameworks just aren't built to handle. Join WWT security experts Kent Noyes and Bryan Fite as they explore explore how to get ahead of the curve by securing AI before it secures a foothold in your threat landscape.

Optimizing Your Security Tools: Turning Complexity into Capability

Many organizations are facing a growing problem: a patchwork of overlapping tools, redundant features and platforms that don't integrate. The result? Skyrocketing budgets, underutilized assets and security teams overwhelmed by the complexity of managing it all. But the bigger question is: Do you actually have the right tools to provide the coverage you need? Join Matt Berry Global Field CTO for Cybersecurity at WWT and Justin Peterson Senior Director at WWT, as they dive into this pressing issue. Together, they'll reveal how to turn your security stack from a liability into a strategic asset.

Steps for Driving Cyber Resiliency Enterprise-Wide

We've heard it time and time again: It's not if, but when you'll get hacked. Accepting that reality requires you and your security teams shift your focus from prevention to recovery. Watch Kate Kuehn, WWT's Global Head of Cyber Advocacy, talk about how you can drive cyber resiliency – from the practitioner level all the way up through the board room.
