Welcome to CDM's RSAC Conference 2025 Special Edition

From the Editor’s desk, we are delighted to present this combined RSAC™/May 2025 issue of Cyber
Defense Magazine. The RSAC™ theme of “Many Voices, One Community” is reflected in the continued
broadening of our publication’s topics.

As our readership grows and includes both cybersecurity professionals and many non-technical readers,
our contributing authors have expanded the subjects of their articles. Fortunately, we also continue to
enjoy an increasing number of submissions, to the benefit of our entire audience.

This issue’s focus on the RSAC™ Conference and articles contributed by RSA participants once again
brings home to us the importance of recognizing the topics of primary interest to practitioners of
cybersecurity, as well those who support their efforts.

Rapid growth in various types of artificial intelligence, leading to greater cyber risks and risk management
needs, including prevention, insurance coverage, and recognition of new threats, are echoed in the
submissions we receive from within the profession.

As always, we strive to be the best and most actionable set of resources for the CISO community in
publishing Cyber Defense Magazine and broadening the activities of Cyber Defense Media Group. With
appreciation for the support of our contributors and readers, we continue to pursue our role as the premier
provider of news, opinion, and forums in cybersecurity.

Wishing you all success in your cybersecurity endeavors,

Yan Ross
