What Changed Between the DRI Glossary 2018 and 2026?
Sometimes the biggest change in a profession is not seen only in regulations, frameworks, or audit findings. Sometimes, it appears in the words we use.
AI and Cybersecurity: Trust is the New Defence Layer
Every technology shift eventually stops being about the technology. The cloud stopped being about servers. Mobile stopped being about phones. And AI is no longer just a software race. The real question today is clear: Who do we trust, and how do we prove it?
Decision Resilience: The Missing Layer in AI Governance
As organizations accelerate the adoption of artificial intelligence, governance discussions often focus on model controls, compliance requirements, monitoring practices, and technical safeguards. These are necessary disciplines. Yet some of the most important governance failures
Building Resilient Organizations Amid Geopolitical Tensions, Economic Volatility, and Supply Chain Disruptions
Business continuity and resilience have evolved beyond traditional operational functions and now serve as critical strategic drivers for ensuring long-term organizational sustainability, stability, and growth.

Digital banks are built for speed, efficiency and customer convenience. Cloud-native platforms, outsourced operations, fintech partnerships and Software-as-a-Service models allow banks to scale rapidly while operating leaner than traditional institutions.
Tone from the Top: Why It Matters More Than Any Framework
In my previous role as a Risk Officer at a local airline, I spent a fair amount of time developing and rolling out our Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) and Business Continuity Management (BCM) framework and policy. Getting the structure right is important. Clear governance, a defined risk appetite, escalation thresholds, and tested continuity plans all matter.
Connected Disruption: Are IoT and ESG Strengthening Supply Chains — or Making Them Fragile by Design?
