Meet us at the CIA Conference 2026
Thursday 24 September 2026 | 9am to 5pm | Ramside Hall Hotel, Durham
A day at Ramside Hall Hotel in Durham with security practitioners and leaders from across the North East and beyond, tackling the questions that dominate every security conversation right now, with AI adoption at the top of the list.
Our Founder and CEO, James Moore, takes the stage at 10.20am to make the case against blocking AI. Ryan Davis and Luke Turner will be there all day too. Grab either of them to see what your organisation’s AI usage really looks like.
About the event
The CIA Conference brings together security leaders, practitioners and vendors for a packed day of talks and networking, running from 9am to 5pm at Ramside Hall Hotel in Durham.
We will be talking about the gap between AI policy and AI reality: why the security stack most organisations already own cannot see AI usage, and what it takes to close that gap without blocking the tools people rely on.
Speaking at the conference
They’ll use AI anyway. Stop fighting it.
10.20am to 10.50am
Founder & CEO, CultureAI
Most organisations respond to AI risk by blocking it. That strategy rarely survives.
James Moore, Founder and CEO at CultureAI, shares what he sees inside real client environments. Block AI and people revert to personal devices, or can no longer innovate. Document labelling assumes people will classify against their own interests. Approved SaaS tools quietly add AI features after procurement.
None of this is deliberate. It is people being productive with a security stack that was never built to see AI, let alone understand it.
A red teamer by background, James shares his views on the data exposure boards have not priced in, from the personal accounts you cannot control to the subject access requests you cannot legally answer, and the strategic alternative to blocking AI.
