The Trump administration’s decision to brand Anthropic as a “supply chain risk” could force CISOs into a position few have faced before: preparing to identify, isolate, and potentially remove a specific AI technology from across their organizations without a clear understanding of where it resides or how deeply it is embedded.
Check out my latest CSO piece that examines how organizations need to get ready for identifying where in their systems AI resides.
Many thanks to Tom Pace …

Anthropic ban heralds new era of supply chain risk — with no clear playbook
Pentagon guidance on how to remove Anthropic shows what enforcement could look like, but most organizations lack the visibility and consensus needed to respond to what the Trump administration describes as a new category of supply chain risk.

I think I need to put into my talk this line that keeps running through my head
So many leaders want people to trust them, which is exactly backwards
In organizations, positions are typically appointed through the hierarchy and authority of the organization. However, like trust, "leadership" is earned: slowly built and quickly lost.
Asking how to earn trust means admitting you have failed, and more importantly means committing to a change. If you don't uphold…
