When we talk to businesses about their third-party security risk assurance, they tell us that high costs and limited resources mean they are only able to conduct security reviews against up to 10% of their supply chain. If you were able to get a good overview of the security controls implemented by your suppliers and have each control continuously monitored for less than £100 per supplier, would you review over 90% of your suppliers?

AI and Research in Marketing and Communications: How Are You Ensuring Quality and Truth Over Speed? As AI becomes embedded in our day-to-day marketing operations, from customer insight to content strategy, it’s clear we’re gaining speed and scale. But are we sacrificing veracity and quality of output in the process? One of the biggest challenges I'm seeing is the rise of hallucinated content in AI-generated research.   - How do we ensure AI systems are surfacing trustworthy, contextually accurate, and well-sourced information? - Are we building enough verification layers into our AI-driven content and research workflows? - And how are you educating teams (and execs) to challenge AI outputs, rather than accept them at face value? - What frameworks, tools, or governance models have you adopted to maintain integrity and depth in AI-led research and insight creation? - Have you had success (or struggles) balancing speed vs. substance in AI-powered strategies? Your thoughts, examples, and recommendations would be incredibly valuable in helping others try to navigate this shift responsibly.
