AI & Cybersecurity: Balancing Risk and Innovation with Jax Scott!

This week on Simplifying Cyber, Aaron Pritz and Cody Rivers sit down with Jax Scott — combat veteran, podcast host (Two Cyber Chicks), and VP of Cybersecurity at Pearson — for a conversation that’s equal parts leadership, risk reality, and “why is everyone still confused about BISOs?” Jax shares her unconventional path into cybersecurity (perfume sales → special operations → NATO cyber strategy → Mandiant → Capital One → consulting → Pearson), then breaks down what BISOs/CISOs do when done right: The “single point of contact” that connects business teams to security outcomes Why risk management is the glue Why the best security leaders aren’t always the most technical (and how technical instincts can backfire) Then we go headfirst into the AI debate: Where automation helps most in compliance (evidence collection, mapping, reducing manual slog) Where humans stay essential (judgment calls, accountability, trust-building) The uncomfortable truth: if we outsource all thinking to AI, we may literally get worse at thinking We wrap with practical guidance on: Handling volatile regulatory changes (like DR/IR requirements) with flexible plans + frequent testing The reality of CMMC: why it’s not “new,” why enforcement matters, and why last-minute scrambles burn everyone out How to lead teams through chaos with transparency, empathy, and real talk And finally: Jax drops a fun fact that honestly explains a lot about her calm energy.
