Original title: ISC2 Launches Cyber-AI Workforce Coalition to Address the Future of AI Security Jobs

CEO Scott Beale, speaking at ISC2 Security Congress 2026 in Denver, called it a vendor-neutral convener for CISOs, HR leaders, standards bodies and governments.

- Universities and certification bodies could adapt curricula from the tools.
