I’m incredibly proud to share that I’ve been awarded the 2025 Joseph J. Wasserman Award, ISACA’s highest honor for lifetime achievement in governance, cybersecurity, and digital trust.

This recognition is deeply meaningful — not just as a personal milestone, but as a powerful affirmation of the urgent work ahead of us.

AI is reshaping every facet of our society, and governance can no longer be an afterthought. We must build systems that are secure, ethical, transparent, and accountable by design.

🏛️ As we stand on the edge of a generational shift in technology, I invite you — practitioners, leaders, and innovators — to commit to Responsible AI as a strategic imperative, not a checkbox.

Let’s raise the bar. Let’s make trustworthiness the default.

🔍 CALL TO ACTION

If you’re working on AI systems — from LLMs to agentic AI — now is the time to embed governance, auditability, and ethical guardrails. I’d love to hear how you’re approaching this. Let’s connect, collaborate, and co-create a future we can trust.
