Comrades, PC Mag and Mashable and Z, ZDnet, all of us just being under one umbrella. All great brands. It's fantastic. It's great to have that camaraderie. Yeah, I used to be the third and fourth employee at CNET. Oh my God, in 19... I'm waiting for you to write a book. I just needed all that didn't work out. All the deep... Yeah, but that's why you should write the book. I have stories. Let me tell you stories. No one wants to hear, but I have them here. Yeah, yeah. Thank you very kind. We'll have more in just a little bit. Our show today brought to you by Adaptive. Oh man, do you need this? The first security awareness platform built to stop AI-powered social engineering. And man, this is a huge shift. Attackers don't need malware anymore. They just need trust, a cloned voice. And by the way, that's so trivially easy to do now. A convincing deepfake on Zoom or an AI-written phish that looks like it came from your IT team. Who wouldn't believe that? Adaptive. I'll tell you who wouldn't. People who use Adaptive. Adaptive prepares your organization with simulations across email, SMS, and voice. Deepfakes, vishing, voice phishing, and AI-generated phishing, including scenarios that mirror your own brand and executives. So these are the best possible tests. They are as challenging as you can get. Plus, when employees see something suspicious, Adaptive can help you.
