Internal Audit Focal Points for 2026 as AI Impacts Conventional Cybersecurity - Tim Lietz - BSW #431

Key emerging risks include cybersecurity (41%) and Generative AI (Gen AI) (35%), both of which present challenges in skill development and retention. The growing reliance on external providers reflects these gaps. In two years, strategic risk has fallen 10% as technological advancements have shifted auditors' attention away from strategy. So what are the top concerns? Tim Lietz, National Practice Leader Internal Audit Risk & Compliance at Jefferson Wells, joins Business Security Weekly to discuss the shifting priorities for internal audit leaders, with technology, business transformation and digitization remaining central amid rising economic uncertainty. This reflects the broader economic challenges and uncertainties that organizations are facing in the current environment. Tim will discuss the need for enhanced skills inAI, cybersecurity and digital transformation and why Internal Audit is increasingly seen as a strategic partner in navigating transformation within their organizations.
