S3E9: Starved from the Edges – Why Connected Intelligence Matters in Autonomous IRM
When Automation Moves Fast—and Misses the Point
In this episode of The Risk Wheelhouse, Ori Wellington and Sam Jones expose the blind spot threatening today’s most advanced risk tech: isolation.
Autonomous IRM is no longer theory. AI platforms like Tuskira are already simulating threats and triggering real-time responses. But as this episode reveals, most operate in a vacuum—starved of strategic input from the top and assurance feedback from the bottom.
The result? High-speed automation chasing low-value noise.

S2E6: Integrated Risk Management – Evolution Beyond ERM and GRC
Traditional risk management frameworks like Enterprise Risk Management (ERM) and Governance, Risk, and Compliance (GRC) were designed for a different era—one where risks were more predictable and siloed. But in today’s fast-moving landscape, these approaches are no longer enough. Integrated Risk Management (IRM) is emerging as the future of risk strategy, offering a holistic, proactive approach that aligns risk with business objectives.
