Ordo Digital CEO Jon Accarrino will demonstrate how content-driven organizations can protect proprietary content, establish practical AI safeguards, and leverage Model Context Protocol (MCP) to securely connect AI with trusted business systems.
DAVENPORT, Iowa, Oct. 14, 2026 /PRNewswire-PRWeb/ -- BLOX Digital will host an exclusive webinar with award-winning media executive and AI strategist Jon Accarrino on Wednesday, Oct. 28, at 2 p.m. Eastern. The webinar, "AI beyond the chatbot: A secure, connected strategy for media organizations," will address a growing problem across the media industry: AI adoption is moving faster than the policies and safeguards needed to manage it.
"AI adoption in media is outpacing the safeguards around it, and that is exactly where the industry needs to focus next," said Jon Accarrino, Founder and CEO of Ordo Digital. "This webinar is about giving media organizations a practical, secure path forward: protecting their proprietary content, choosing tools they can actually trust, and using standards like Model Context Protocol to connect AI to the systems they already rely on. The goal is not more hype, but a smarter, safer way to put AI to work."
"Media organizations need practical guidance about what to protect, which tools to trust, and where AI can deliver real value," said Aaron Gillette, vice president of marketing at BLOX Digital. "This conversation will help media teams make smarter decisions about what comes next."
Accarrino will address key industry risks, including data leakage, content scraping, bot traffic, bandwidth strain, and security vulnerabilities.
He will introduce the Model Context Protocol (MCP), showing how connected tools streamline content strategy, audience analytics, revenue reporting, decision-making, and operations. Using the BLOX NXT CMS as an example, the session focuses on practical application and industry-wide education.
Accarrino is the founder and CEO of Ordo Digital and an award-winning media executive and AI innovator. He advises media organizations on AI strategy, product development, content operations, and new revenue opportunities. He was named Digital Innovator of the Year by the Local Media Association and writes the "AI & TV" column for TVNewsCheck.
