00:00 There is some good news in the report. For instance, organizations that had an extensive use of AI and automation saved $2 million on average on a data breach. They also saved 65 days in terms of how long it took for them to recover. So we have a general idea of what makes a difference. And if you go back and dig into the details a little more. The number one, cause of a data breach, both in terms of cost and in terms of frequency, was phishing.

00:32 Now, that's the bad news is it was phishing last year. And I think it was phishing the year before. So, you know, we're we're not making the progress we should. But here if you want the good news, we know how to solve this phishing problem. For the most part, I mean, there's never a complete solution to any security issue, but as complete a solution as there could be.

00:53 It's called Ppasskeys, and it's a ten year old technology. And we've been selling it. We're using it internally. It's out there. I'm starting to see more and more even retail, customers starting to use this and deploy it. And it's a passkey implementation that's done well is essentially phishing resistant.

💡 Answer

Yes, when implemented well, passkeys are essentially phishing-resistant, though they are not a complete security solution.

🧠 AI Summary

Phishing was the leading cause of data breaches by both cost and frequency. Passkeys, when implemented well, are essentially phishing-resistant and offer a highly effective way to address the problem. Organizations with extensive AI and automation saved an average of $2 million per breach and recovered 65 days faster.

🔑 Key Points

  • Phishing was the number one cause of data breaches by both cost and frequency.
