As security leaders, we are continuously selling, maybe not as traditional sales folks, but as selling security across the organization. Whether you’re closing client deals, leading a team, running a business, or simply wanting your voice to be heard by other executives or the board, we are selling. How can influence help? Dan Rochon, Author of Teach to Sell, joins Business Security Weekly to discuss psychology of influence, personal transformation, and how to build trust that converts. Dan will cover the four pillars from his book: Believe (in Yourself) Find Business Build an Organization...

Speed is the most common theme among developers and appsec teams working with LLMs and agents, from trying to keep up with patterns for deploying agents to dealing with more code faster to how the latest models impact code quality and security. The OWASP GenAI Project is helping organizations keep up with the speed of those changes and engaging the appsec community for sharing effective ways to keep systems secure. Scott Clinton shares the latest progress on the the project, its roadmap for the year, and how appsec practitioners can shape its future. Resources: This segment is sponsored...

Interview with Daniel dos Santos: Post-Quantum Cryptography and the Risks No One Is Talking About Post-quantum cryptography (PQC) is quickly shifting from theory to inevitability. In this segment, Daniel dos Santos, VP of Research at Forescout, explains why PQC isn’t the most immediate threat today—but still demands early attention as standards solidify and timelines accelerate. The discussion highlights overlooked risks beyond encrypted traffic, including digital signatures, firmware integrity, and blockchain systems. Daniel also emphasizes the real challenge: migration. While client-side...

Attackers are increasingly weaponizing frontier models to accelerate the entire attack lifecycle, with current and emerging models reducing the time and expertise needed to start disruptive attacks. As offensive capabilities become more automated and agentic, organizations will need security programs that are equally autonomous, coordinated and continuous. But where do you start? Mark Hughes, Global Managing Partner, Cybersecurity Services at IBM, joins Business Security Weekly to discuss autonomous security, the next frontier of cybersecurity services. IBM recently announced IBM Autonomous...

Mind the Gap: Confidence, AI, and the Future of Exposure Management
Former ethical hacker, now founder and CEO of Intruder, Chris Wallis explores whether AI can bridge the divide between finding vulnerabilities and understanding real-world attack context as exploit windows continue to shrink. This conversation dives into the structural "confidence gap" uncovered in Intruder’s 2026 Security Middle Child Report, where executive risk appetite is increasingly decoupled from front-line operational reality.

Modern Phishing Attacks Are Under Multi-Channel Siege
Recently, there has been a shift in cybercriminals’ behavior, marked by a surge in total phishing attack volume. These attacks are fueled by high-scale automation and a coordinated multi-channel siege targeting corporate collaboration tools. Trusted platforms such as email, Teams, calendars and others are in the cross-hairs, bypassing traditional phishing methods that have worked in the past.

AI is Now Default Enterprise Accelerator
The Zscaler ThreatLabz 2026 AI Security Report reveals that enterprise AI adoption has surged by up to 93% year-over-year, yet 100% of tested AI environments remain vulnerable to breaches that can occur in as little as 16 minutes. It highlights a dangerous shift toward "machine-speed" threats, where attackers use generative AI to automate data exfiltration and create sophisticated deepfakes. To combat these risks, the report urges organizations to move beyond simple blocking and instead implement a Zero Trust architecture for safe, AI-native data protection.
