Pontos principais
- A adoção da IA está se acelerando, contribuindo para tornar os funcionários mais eficientes, produtivos e competitivos.
- As organizações precisam de governança e diretrizes para adotar a IA de forma responsável e em grande escala.
- Security and productivity don’t have to compete – they can reinforce one another.
- AI will become one of security’s most valuable tools for managing cyber risks.
- A adoção da IA funciona melhor quando inovação e segurança caminham juntas.
One of the things I’ve enjoyed about the Pronto. Ou não.O que caracteriza esta série é que cada conversa se baseia na anterior. Começamos explorando as oportunidades e os riscos da IA autônoma. Em seguida, analisamos como as organizações podem construir confiança à medida que a IA se torna parte do dia a dia dos negócios. Este episódio aborda a próxima questão lógica: como, na prática, podemos usar a IA com segurança?
Comedian Nathan Macintosh sits down with Rinki Sethi, CISO and CSO at Upwind Security, for a conversation about what responsible AI adoption actually looks like. They cover everything from AI governance and guardrails to user experience and the growing role AI will play in cybersecurity.
Nathan continues to ask the questions many of us are wondering. Should we be worried? How much more productive do we need to be? And can AI actually make security better?

What I appreciated most about this conversation is that Rinki is genuinely excited about new technology and protecting it. She didn’t frame AI as something organizations need to worry about. Instead, she focused on encouraging businesses to move forward with confidence by putting the right guardrails in place. Here are the ideas that stayed with me.
O impulso à adoção da IA
One thing that becomes clear from the conversation is that many organizations aren’t only encouraging their employees to adopt AI – they’re mandating it. These companies recognize that using AI helps people solve problems more efficiently, which is essential for staying competitive.
“Every single company has a mandate … we’ve got to use AI everywhere in the company.”
– Rinki Sethi
A questão já não é se a IA tem lugar no ambiente de trabalho, mas sim se os funcionários dispõem das diretrizes adequadas para utilizá-la de forma responsável. À medida que a adoção da IA se acelera, as organizações precisam de normas claras sobre quais ferramentas de IA os funcionários podem usar e como os dados da empresa são protegidos.
Prévia: Governança da IA
Rinki explains that governance isn’t just about protecting against new risks. It’s about creating a framework that helps employees use AI responsibly while keeping pace with evolving regulations and industry standards.
O benefício oculto da produtividade
Here’s something I never thought about before. Rinki explains that AI isn’t simply helping people work faster. In many cases, it’s leaving room for the highest-performing employees to excel.
She used software developers as an example. When AI-powered coding assistants became available, many assumed they’d only help less experienced developers. Instead, some of the best engineers began using them to move faster. They were able to solve more complex problems and spend more time on creative work rather than repetitive tasks.
That kind of productivity is exactly why organizations are mandating AI. It doesn’t limit what people can do – it helps give them more space to focus on higher-value work.
“You can be way more creative with how you’re doing things … cause you’re creating the space for that.”
– Rinki Sethi
AI’s Role in Cybersecurity
“How can AI be used to help with security and not be just looked at as a demon thing that’s here to take us out?”
– Nathan Macintosh
When we talk about AI and security, the conversation is often focused on risk. But Rinki believes that AI will become one of cybersecurity’s greatest advantages.
Security teams are already overwhelmed by the volume of alerts, logs, and data they need to investigate every day. Human analysts simply can’t keep up. Rather than replacing security professionals, AI assists them by filtering through massive amounts of data in seconds. This helps analysts identify false positives so they can focus on investigating real threats.
My takeaway is that the future of cybersecurity isn’t about people versus AI – it’s about people working alongside AI to help make better decisions, respond faster, and scale their operations in ways that weren’t possible before.
Ready for What’s Next?
Cada episódio dePronto. Ou não. has reminded me that the biggest AI conversations are often about people – how we adapt, how we learn, and how we build the confidence to use new technology responsibly. The real opportunity for organizations isn’t just adopting AI. It’s creating an environment where employees can use AI to work smarter, become more creative, and deliver better outcomes for the business.

Perguntas frequentes
P: Por que as organizações estão adotando a IA tão rapidamente?
R:Muitas organizações veem a IA como uma forma de ajudar a melhorar a produtividade, aumentar a eficiência e proporcionar aos funcionários mais tempo para se dedicarem a tarefas de maior valor agregado.
P: O que é governança de IA?
R:A governança da IA é o conjunto de políticas, processos e mecanismos de supervisão que ajuda as organizações a adotar a IA de forma responsável, ao mesmo tempo em que gerencia os riscos relacionados à segurança, à privacidade e à conformidade.
P: Por que a experiência do usuário é importante para a segurança?
R:Controles de segurança que criam atritos desnecessários muitas vezes levam as pessoas a buscar soluções alternativas. Projetar sistemas seguros que também sejam fáceis de usar ajuda a melhorar tanto a adesão quanto a proteção.
P: A IA pode ajudar a melhorar a segurança cibernética?
R:A IA pode ajudar as equipes de segurança a analisar grandes volumes de dados, o que contribui para reduzir os falsos positivos. Isso, por sua vez, ajuda as equipes a priorizar as ameaças e a responder de forma mais eficiente aos eventos de segurança.
P: As pessoas deveriam ter medo da IA?
R: Rinki’s perspective is that a healthy sense of skepticism is valuable, but fear shouldn’t prevent organizations from adopting technology responsibly. Education, governance, and strong security practices can help organizations use AI with confidence.
Q: What’s the biggest takeaway from this episode?
R: AI adoption isn’t about choosing between innovation and security. Organizations that combine strong governance with practical security measures will be better positioned to take advantage of AI’s benefits while managing its risks.
