Today in Labor History February 12, 1880: John L. Lewis was born. He was president of the United Mine Workers (UMWA) from 1920-1960, and founder of the Congress of Industrial Organizations (CIO). In 1935, he pulled the UMWA from the American Federation of Labor (and punched out Carpenters Union President William Hutcheson in the process) when the AFL refused to endorse industrial unionism. Lewis then formed the CIO, which organized millions of unskilled, mass production workers into unions in the 1930s and 1940s. In the 1920s, he used red-baiting, stolen elections and violence to expel the communists from the UMWA. Yet he refused to make his officials take the non-Communism oath required by the Taft-Hartley bill. Canadian labor leader J.B. McLachlan called Lewis a traitor to the working class.

We aren’t just fighting basic threats anymore; we’re up against algorithms that exploit our own behavior before we even realize we’ve been targeted. In cybersecurity, we've shifted from defending perimeters to defending identities in a world where seeing—and hearing—is no longer believing.

I recently spoke with InformationWeek about the escalating threat of AI-based attacks. From agentic AI to deepfakes, the gap between platform vulnerabilities is where the real danger lives. My take? If your security team is still relying on manual processes to fight automated attackers, you’re bringing a knife to a railgun fight. We’re doubling down on zero-trust and out-of-band authentication to ensure the person on the other end of the "urgent" request is who they claim to be.

🧠 Deepfakes are becoming extraordinarily dangerous and difficult to guard against.
⚡ Automated detection is no longer optional—it is the only way to keep pace with attacker speed.
🔍 Out-of-band authentication (OOBA) is critical for verifying identities through separate channels.
🎓 Closing the "natural gaps" between platforms is the primary goal of modern zero-trust.

Replacing every PC is a logistical impossibility. Most companies operate on a rolling refresh. Here’s the challenge: Laptops bought in February are different from the model in October; different BIOS, different firmware for internal drives, network adapters, etc. You’re managing a new digital drift. And it grows exponentially. We enforce the same digital DNA across every machine.

It's one more way to make employees trust their tech tools.
