The Brick House: What’s Next in GRC — Turning Quantified Risk into Action

Cyber risk management is entering a new phase. As organizations adopt FAIR-based quantification models, AI-driven workflows and more integrated governance strategies, the challenge is no longer simply collecting risk data—it’s turning that information into faster, smarter business decisions.

Today’s security and risk leaders are under growing pressure to demonstrate measurable outcomes, communicate cyber risk in business terms and support operational resilience across complex environments. At the same time, AI and automation are rapidly reshaping how organizations approach governance, reporting and risk analysis.

In this edition of The Brick House, GuidePoint Security experts explore how modern GRC programs are evolving beyond traditional compliance and reporting models to support decision-making at scale. The discussion will examine how organizations are operationalizing cyber risk quantification, where AI is beginning to influence governance workflows and why many programs still struggle to translate risk insights into meaningful action.

Planned discussion:

• How FAIR-based risk quantification is changing executive and board conversations today
• Where AI can improve GRC workflows—and where human judgment remains essential
• The operational challenges of scaling cyber risk management across modern enterprises
• Lessons organizations are learning from evolving third-party, identity and data risks
• Practical strategies building resilient, decision-driven GRC programs

Join Gary Brickhouse, CISO at GuidePoint Security and a panel of cybersecurity, governance and risk leaders for a practical discussion on how organizations are adapting cyber risk management for the realities of AI, automation and rapidly changing business environments.

Panelists:

• Ben Moreland, Practice Director, GRC
• Emily O’Carroll, Field CISO, SW
• Sujeet Bambawale, Field CISO, NW
• Tim Amerson, Field CISO, FED
