And Heather, I'll put this one to you first. Oh, certainly. So I think I would start with the threat is real. It is not theoretical. We are already seeing actual cyber attacks through multiple vectors using artificial intelligence. From everything related to writing more convincing emails for business email compromise to creating even new malware attacks. So the other thing I would add, it's imperative to design and develop human expertise for both employees and clients. This is going to be required to properly design and develop AI, as well as the to get the best use out of AI's results. Simply put, human understanding of the problem at hand is really required to correctly prompt, design and train those AI systems. But, yeah, the threat is real. The threat is definitely real. So when you are telling them, you know, the threat is real, kind of what is that next question? Is it about budget? Is it about headcount? Competitive risk? Like, where does it kind of go once you've appropriately scared them into the fact that it's a real threat that they need to be worried about? Yeah, that's a great follow-up question. And it is often followed with, okay, if it's real, then what can I do about it? And we can talk probably further about some of those tactics as we get into some of the other questions with the panel. But, you know, the budget, that is a real question. How much is it going to cost me to secure the systems? Does that look more expensive than it was yesterday? Or is it less expensive because I can utilize AI myself to kind of battle artificial intelligence that's a threat? So there are and there are a lot of unknowns still in this space. It's developing. It's changing all the time. So some of those questions don't have simple, finite answers to them. And I think that's the biggest challenge that executives and particularly board members and CEOs have right now.
