Miami, Florida(Hexa PR Wire–January 30, 2026)–Sanny Liao joins The Michael Peres Podcast to discuss human risk in cybersecurity and why behavior change is becoming as important as technical controls. Liao, co-founder and chief product officer of Fable Security, describes her path from pure math and economic policy into data science and security, including doctoral training at UC Berkeley. She explains how a background in rigorous, abstract problem-solving informed how she approaches real-world security systems and product design. Liao talks about entering cybersecurity unexpectedly and why she now sees it as one of the most consequential areas in technology. She challenges the idea that humans are simply the “weakest link,” arguing that security programs work better when they treat people as part of the system to support rather than a problem to blame. She discusses how Fable Security approaches human risk, why changing behavior requires more than better tools, and how cybersecurity and AI literacy may soon be baseline skills similar to general internet competence.
Sanny Liao is the co-founder and Chief Product Officer at Fable Security, where she oversees product and technology for a human risk platform. Prior to Fable, she was part of the early team at Abnormal Security and served as head of data science, leading development of detection products. She also led data science at TellApart, which was acquired by X/Twitter. Liao holds a Ph.D. from the University of California, Berkeley.
