SBS CyberSecurity Launches Inaugural Converge AI Conference in Omaha
As financial institutions struggle to govern the rapid deployment of artificial intelligence, industry leaders are converging in Omaha this October to bridge the gap between experimental AI and secure, regulatory-compliant implementation. The two-day event aims to move beyond theory, focusing on hands-on risk management for the banking sector.

Keynotes will be delivered by KnowBe4 CISO advisor Erich Kron, who will address human-centered security risks, and social-engineering expert Brian Brushwood. The speaker lineup also draws on deep regulatory and technical expertise, featuring former FDIC official Michael Benardo, Commercial Bank of Texas CIO Tim Leonard, and SBS CEO Chad Knutson. These sessions are designed to address immediate industry pain points, such as AI-driven fraud and the evolving expectations of federal examiners regarding corporate AI governance.
