In this episode, Prabh and Anas break down the AI tools every professional must learn in 2025 — not to replace jobs, but to become impossible to replace. Instead of talking about AI in theory, we walk through real, practical workflows for self-branding, productivity, HR automation, data analysis, dashboards, and research, using tools that are either free or extremely cost-effective.Anas begins with the idea of building your own AI tool library, something every working professional needs today. From using ChatGPT and Gemini for email filtering, personal branding, and productivity, to using AI as a self-service engine for sales data, HR approvals, payment verification, and daily workflow automation — the conversation shows you exactly how AI can remove friction from your day.We also explore Gemini’s ability to read emails, extract sales numbers, approve leave, filter calendars, and even automate HR policy responses. Prabh discusses how tools like Gemini can remove dependency on internal teams by auto-generating GRC dashboards, compliance summaries, and analytical views.Then, Anas demonstrates the power of AI-enhanced data analysis — using Google Sheets formulas generated by natural language, conditional logic, automated highlights, and dashboard creation. He also introduces Gemini Gold Canvas for dynamic dashboards and backend integration, making real-time analytics accessible to non-technical users.The episode moves into research and content creation with NotebookLM, showing how AI can summarize documents, generate mind maps, create notes, and produce presentations from your source material. We explore Consensus AI for credible research papers, Gamma AI for designing impactful presentations, and Perplexity as the most powerful free research engine in India today — capable of generating full reports, visuals, code, and structured insights using multiple AI models together.Whether you're in HR, sales, GRC, IT, operations, cybersecurity, management or a student preparing for the future — this session gives you a full AI playbook to improve your self-branding, accelerate your work, reduce manual tasks, and build a professional edge in 2025.If you’ve been searching for AI tools for self-branding, AI tools for productivity, how to use Perplexity, how to use Gemini, how to automate HR, AI research tools, or AI tools for dashboards, this episode covers everything in one place — step by step.#AITools #Productivity #SelfBranding #GeminiAI #PerplexityAI #NotebookLM #AIForBusiness #AIAutomation #FutureOfWork #AIResearch #GammaAI #GoogleSheetsAI #GRC #CareerGrowth

When we talk about the war in Ukraine, we often think about tanks, missiles and soldiers. But behind the physical conflict, another war was unfolding — a silent digital battle that changed global cybersecurity forever.In this video, we explore how U.S. Cyber Command and Ukrainian defenders created one of the most effective cyber shields ever seen. Before the invasion, Ukrainian teams started actively hunting inside their own networks, identifying threats early and strengthening their defenses. So when Russia launched its major cyber attacks, Ukraine recovered faster than anyone expected.But the real turning point came from the United States. U.S. Cyber Command didn’t keep the intelligence they found in Ukraine to themselves. They collected the digital fingerprints of every Russian malware sample and shared it instantly with the FBI, allied nations and private companies like Microsoft and Google.That meant a piece of Russian malware discovered in Kyiv on a Tuesday was already being blocked automatically in hospitals across the U.S., banks in London and government networks in Tokyo by Wednesday.This is the power of proactive cyber defense — when one country’s hunt becomes the world’s shield.This video breaks down:✔ How Ukraine prepared for cyber attacks✔ How U.S. Cyber Command transformed threat intelligence into global protection✔ Why shared defense changed the rules of cyber warfare✔ How partnerships can outperform even the strongest attackersThis is the unseen story of the war — a moment when cyber defense evolved, alliances strengthened and the U.S. played a critical role in stopping a major digital assault.Cyberwarfare https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=naCEvt2LMCM&t=2645sCyberwarfarehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=fCvGXEPQ_4E&t=1sHashtags:#CyberSecurity #USCyberCommand #UkraineWar #CyberDefense #RussianHackers #ThreatIntelligence #CyberWarfare #ProactiveDefense #NationalSecurity #InfoSec

In this podcast, Prabh Nair sits down with Aamir, who successfully cleared the ISSAP certification in his first attempt, to break down the real preparation journey behind one of the most challenging security architecture exams.Aamir shares his experience preparing for ISSAP with over 12 years of hands-on cybersecurity experience, explaining why ISSAP is not just a technical exam, but one that demands a security architect and enterprise mindset. He explains the revised ISAP structure, the four domains, and why Domain 3 (Infrastructure and System Security) carries the highest weightage and difficulty.The discussion covers how candidates should think while preparing for ISSAP, including the importance of defense-in-depth, secure-by-design, risk-based decision making, and understanding how security actually works inside large organizations. Aamir also explains why many candidates struggle with Domain 2 (Security Architecture Modeling) and how CISSP and CCSP concepts indirectly support ISAP preparation.We also discuss the ISSAP eligibility requirements, how the certification differs from CISSP and CCSP, the role of enterprise security architecture, IAM, federation, SSO, governance, and cloud architecture concepts that appear in the exam. Aamir shares honest insights about the lack of official resources, how he used books, CBK references, and practice techniques, and why patience and consistency matter more than shortcuts.Towards the end, the conversation moves into CISSP preparation strategy, where Aamir shares how understanding the ISC2 mindset, scenario-based questions, and architectural thinking helped him approach both ISSAP and CISSP with confidence.If you are planning to pursue ISSAP certification, security architecture roles, or want to understand what it really takes to clear advanced cybersecurity certifications, this episode gives you a realistic, experience-based roadmap.ISSAP Playlisthttps://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL0hT6hgexlYxZWJFIZbOqpkbKCT3u0ILeCISO talkshttps://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL0hT6hgexlYwPTD-wC3oFBe27VGEiizg1NIST Serieshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VcC_KabV_Ho&list=PL0hT6hgexlYy0vBwMv0eteiyAxB48RQzy&pp=gAQBiAQBGRC Serieshttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mq_vSLHm4r0&list=PL0hT6hgexlYztA41j1bceTfVagP9mtq28&pp=gAQBISO 27001 Videohttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sQqJH2naU6I&t=1454s&pp=ygUeaXNvIDI3MDAxIGltcGxlbWVudGF0aW9uIHN0ZXBzISO 27001 Implementation Guidehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GBfwk10Hh-o&pp=ygUeaXNvIDI3MDAxIGltcGxlbWVudGF0aW9uIHN0ZXBzGRC Practical Serieshttps://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL0hT6hgexlYztA41j1bceTfVagP9mtq28GRC Interviewhttps://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL0hT6hgexlYz1Usn1Nrnur6OzVoz59zylInternal Audithttps://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PL0hT6hgexlYyNWBcGYfabwumCr0GKmLWv#issap #cissp #isc2
