Defending Against AI-Weaponized Social Engineering
Glen Sorensen is a Security & Privacy Expert specializing in AI Social Engineering Defense. A recovering CISO/vCISO and currently Solutions Engineer at DeleteMe, he focuses on how exposed personally identifiable information (PII) and open-source intelligence are harvested and amplified by AI to power highly convincing phishing, deepfake scams, and automated fraud at unprecedented scale.
With 20+ years in IT and security, Glen has worn nearly every hat — security engineering and architecture, operations, GRC, leadership, analyst, consultant, auditor, regulator, and Information Security Officer for a credit union. He previously served as Virtual CISO and Managing Director at Cyber Risk Opportunities LLC, building practical security programs across financial services, healthcare, and manufacturing. A passionate advocate for reducing digital footprints, he speaks widely on topics such as “Exposed PII: The High Performance Fuel for Social Engineering (Now in AI Flavors!)” and serves as Incident Master for HackBack Gaming, using tabletop roleplaying to train real-world incident response.
