CISO Briefing

About CISO Briefing

What's new in this build This release adds language and personalisation options, a searchable threat index, and makes briefing playback in CarPlay reliable. New * Briefing language: generate briefings in Dutch, French, German, or English (More → Briefing Language). Script, audio, and prompts all follow your choice, with native accents for more natural speech. * Briefing Focus: a new wizard (Context → Briefing Focus) that sets what each briefing prioritises, such as sector threats, stack vulnerabilities, NL compliance (NIS2 / Cyberbeveiligingswet), or board narrative, building on your existing profile. * Personalisation always on: your profile description now always shapes the tone and emphasis of every briefing. The manual toggle has been removed. * Weekly Threat Index: the Weekly tab is now a searchable index of the themes from your recent briefings, grouped by category (ransomware, threat actors, vulnerabilities, patches, and more). Search by ransomware, vendor/platform, or country name and tap straight through to the briefing that covered it. It spans past weeks, not just the current one, and can be exported as text or PDF. CarPlay and playback * The app is now the primary audio source. It no longer pauses or ducks your music or podcasts on launch; other audio is only interrupted when you tap play. * Artwork now updates per chapter during playback, on CarPlay, the lock screen, and Control Center, matching the content block. * Chapter list now has its own button (replacing the home button) with colour-coded icons per content block for faster navigation. * Clearer failures: a single readable error message instead of a blank player, the spinner clears the moment playback starts, and time estimates are corrected (Sitrep around 2.5 min, In-depth around 5 min). * Non-default speeds (0.75x and 1.25x) now apply reliably at the start of a briefing. * Briefings now appear in CarPlay even when your iPhone is locked. Your existing sitreps and in-depth briefings show up on the car display instead of an empty list, and generating a new briefing from CarPlay works on a locked device. Reliability * Briefing generation no longer fails with an "audio could not be generated" error when you have an active subscription. * Subscription status is now re-verified with Apple each session, reducing cases where access was wrongly blocked or granted after a plan change. * PDF exports now show their page-number footer reliably in dark mode (previously it could be near-invisible on the white page). Thanks for using this app! If anything still looks off in CarPlay, please let us know.
