Preventing a Breakout as AI Agent Threats Is One of Three Top CISO Concerns - Rob Allen - BSW #461
Security Weekly Podcast Network (Audio)
Artificial intelligence has quickly evolved from a productivity tool into an active participant in many organizations' daily operations. As organizations give AI greater autonomy within their environment, they're also granting them access to sensitive systems and data. That creates a new challenge for IT and security teams: How do you enable AI to assist productivity without compromising security? Rob Allen, Chief Product Officer at ThreatLocker, joins Business Security Weekly to discuss how zero trust principles can prevent an AI breakout. Rather than relying solely on the AI tool's built-in...

Augmenting Threat Intel Analysis with Agents - Chris Wallis, Sai Kiran Uppu, Ramin Farassat - ASW #396
Security Weekly Podcast Network (Audio)
All sorts of cybersecurity disciplines are adopting agents to help humans save time and automate routine activities. Sai Kiran Uppu describes his work on creating a platform for agents to analyze external threat intel, examine internal systems, and present triage decisions to operators. This type of work is especially useful to orgs that deal with petabytes of data and thousands of systems. And, as Kiran notes, it's important to keep that scale from blowing up your budget or turning triage into a procession of false positives. Ideally, this kind of threat intel that's paying attention to...

Sandbox Escapes with Rubrik's Zero Labs, AI recorders eroding privacy, and the news - Joe Hladik - ESW #472
Security Weekly Podcast Network (Audio)
Interview with Jon Hladik - ChatMate Imagine a user asks an LLM a question about a document. An attacker then gains an interactive prompt on the user’s chat session, enabling the attacker to instruct the AI assistant to take actions on behalf of the victim. That is exactly the capability researchers at Rubrik Zero Labs were able to demonstrate in a recent study designed to test the bounds of LLM security. Join Joe Hladik, Head of Rubrik Zero Labs, as he breaks down the discovery of "Remote Prompt Execution," a novel vulnerability class that enabled full takeovers of Microsoft Copilot...

Domain Security Plus BlackHat USA 2026 Interviews from Balance Theory and WiCyS - Greg Baker, Ihab Shraim, Lynn Dohm - BSW #460
Security Weekly Podcast Network (Audio)
As cyber threats become more AI-powered, attacks continue to rise. Threats can arise from all areas of a company’s IT infrastructure, however most attacks utilize a domain name to infiltrate systems. How secure is your domain ecosystem? Ihab Shraim, Chief Technology Offider at CSC Digital Brand Services, joins Business Security Weekly to discuss why domain security is a fundamental blind spot in corporate cybersecurity programs. Ihab will discuss his team’s research finding that 67% of Forbes Global 2000 companies have implemented fewer than half of recommended domain security measures. He...

Using LLMs for Vuln Discovery - Rishi Sharma - ASW #395
Security Weekly Podcast Network (Audio)
Finding flaws has always been a focus of appsec. And now with open source projects and open weight models orgs have modern tools to review code and conduct pentests. Rishi Sharma describes the motivation behind creating a platform of LLM-driven security tools and the effective ways to keep the tools in scope, on budget, and for engineering teams. We talk about how prompts influence LLM activity, as well as the external constraints to keep the LLMs on task. And even if finding flaws is a major focus of appsec, its goal should be delivering secure software and systems. We touch on some of the...

Three interviews: system fragility, operational clarity, and Identity for AI agents - Todd Thiemann, Robin Macfarlane, Kyle Sandy - ESW #471
Security Weekly Podcast Network (Audio)
Interview 1: Robin Macfarlane from RRMac Associats The Mattress Money Principle: What a 50-Year Veteran Knows About System Fragility In this interview, Robin and Adrian discuss how technology has evolved over the past 50 years. Despite massive technological changes over the decades: the PC revolution, the Internet, smartphones, the Cloud, and now Generative AI - the majority of financial institutions still use mainframes and midrange machines. Why? We explore the reasons why older technology persists alongside the new and the lessons retiring technologists can pass on to new generations...
info_outlineSegment 1 - Interview with O'Shea Bowens
What do we really know about "AI Network Protocols"? Network security is about to get popular all over again.
Generative AI caused a disruptive explosion across all of tech and every company’s roadmap. The move from chatbots to AI agents doubled down on that disruption. Now agents need to talk to each other?
Boom: we have MCP. A2A. Universal Commerce Protocol. General purpose and specialized protocols for agent communication. What does this look like from the network perspective, though? O’Shea Bowen joins us to answer this question, and he thinks the results are interesting enough to spark a resurgence of interest in network security tooling.

Segment 2 - Interview with Jeremiah Grossman
Jeremiah Grossman on why we've been measuring cyber risk wrong for 20 years
After decades helping shape modern web security, and building companies that were ultimately acquired by Synopsys and Tenable, Jeremiah Grossman believes cybersecurity has arrived at an inflection point. His argument is a provocative one: for years, the industry has optimized around the wrong metrics. His latest venture, Root Evidence, aims to help security teams identify which risks are most likely to cause meaningful business loss, and he has the evidence - real-world breach data, cyber insurance claims, digital forensics intelligence, attack surface intelligence, and observed attacker behavior - to back it up.
