Cybersecurity with Naveed Islam, CISO at Dojo

In this special edition of the Tech on Toast Podcast, host Chris Fletcher sits down with Naveed Islam, Chief Information Security Officer at Dojo, to unpack the state of cybersecurity in today’s AI-powered, hyper-digital world.

From phishing scams and data breaches to quantum threats and ransomware-as-a-service, this episode breaks it all down in a way every operator – whether you’re running a single site or leading a national brand – can understand and action.

🎯 Topics Covered:

• What does a CISO actually do?

• The rise in high-profile breaches (M&S, Co-op etc.)

• Why small businesses are especially vulnerable

• Common attack vectors: phishing, credential theft, outdated software

• AI in cybersecurity – the good and the bad

• The dark SaaS world of “Ransomware-as-a-Service”

• Why card data is digital gold

• PCI compliance made simple

• The hygiene basics every business should master

• Why cybersecurity needs to be on the boardroom agenda

• What the future holds: Agentic AI, identity as the new perimeter, and post-quantum risk

🔮 3 Cybersecurity Trends to Watch:

Agentic AI – AI that defends autonomously, without human input
Identity is the new perimeter – verifying who is accessing systems is now more critical than where they’re doing it
Post-Quantum Risk – data stolen today could be decrypted tomorrow. Some attackers are already harvesting.

🔐 Key Takeaways:

• Cybercrime is getting slicker and cheaper – anyone can launch an attack

• AI is a double-edged sword – it’s being used by both defenders and attackers

• Security hygiene matters – MFA, strong passwords, regular updates

• Only 27% of UK boards prioritise cyber – that needs to change

• Payments are prime targets – card data can fetch up to $30 per record

🛡️ How Dojo Protects Its Customers:

• Point-to-point encryption

• Hosted payment pages

• AI-powered threat detection

• Light-touch PCI support for SMEs
