The three proactive security principles of visibility, prioritization, and remediation have always been the foundation of vulnerability management teams. But these teams face continuous challenges. How do you address these challenges? Erik Nost, Senior Analyst at Forrester, joins Business Security Weekly to break down the six questions that need to be answered for each proactive security principle: who, what, when, where, why, and how. The introduction of generative AI (genAI) into proactive security promises to provide a broader and speedier ability to answer these questions, providing further opportunities for the proactive security market to grow. In the leadership and communications segment, What the CEO and C-Suite Must Ask Before Building an AI Enabled Enterprise, Don't Underestimate the Value of Professional Friendships, What Kevin Bacon Can Teach You About Cybersecurity Career, and more!

The discussion kicks off with alarming findings on LLM endpoint probes and SSRF exploits. A thought-provoking segment questions if AIs can be manipulated into revealing data. Microsoft’s Copilot removal policy raises eyebrows, paired with bold predictions about an impending AI bubble burst by 2026. The podcast highlights Blue Delta’s credential-harvesting tactics and warns of dangerous QR-code attacks, or 'quishing.' Moxie Marlinspike introduces a new privacy-focused AI assistant. Lastly, a bizarre check-in app phenomenon sparks intrigue.

Not all infosec advice is helpful. Bad advice wastes time, makes people less secure, and takes focus away from making software more secure. Bob Lord talks about his efforts to tamp down hacklore -- the security myths and mistakes that crop up in news stories and advice to users. He talks about how these myths come about, why they're harmful, and how they're related to the necessity of building software that's secure by design.

First Topic - Podcast Content Plans for 2026 Every year, I like to sit down and consider what the podcast should be focusing on. Not doing so ensures every single episode will be about AI and nobody wants that. Least of all, me. If I have one more all-AI episode, my head is going to explode. With that said, most of what we talk about in this segment is AI (picard face palm.png). I think 2026 will be THE defining year for GenAI. Three years after the release of ChatGPT, I think we've hit peak GenAI hype and folks are ready for it to put up or shut up. We'll see winners grow and get acquired and losers pivot to something else. More than anything, I want to interview folks who have actually seen it work at scale, rather than just in a cool demo in a vendor sandbox. Also on the agenda for this year: The battle against infostealers and session hijacking: we didn't have a good answer in 2025. When is it coming? Will it include Macs, despite them not having a traditional TPM? The state of trust in outsourcing and third party use (Cloud, MSSPs, SaaS, contractors): 2025 was not a good year for third parties. Lots of them got breached and caused their customers a lot of pain. Also, there's the state of balkanization between the US and... the rest of the entire world. Everyone outside the US seems to be trying to derisk their companies and systems from the Cloud Act right now. Vulnerability management market disruption: there are half a dozen startups already plotting to disrupt the market, likely to come out of stealth in 2026 Future of the SOC: if it's not AI, what is it? What else??? What am I missing? What would you like to see us discuss?

Ayman had a whole podcast and book focused on all the paths people take to get into security. Jackie worked with WiSys on outlining pathways into a cybersecurity career. Whether you're already in cyber or looking for a way in, this segment crams a lot of great advice into just 15-20 minutes.

This week dives into the world of cybersecurity, tackling urgent issues like supply chain attacks and XSS vulnerabilities. An intriguing discussion highlights the ban on devices like Flipper Zeros and Raspberry Pis at events, stirring up circumvention concerns. Hosts share methods to debloat Android without root access and reveal the risks of compromised streaming devices. They also explore the implications of leaked PS5 keys, the rise of ransomware from incident responders, and even a historic fix for a 1973 Unix buffer overflow. A lively debate ensues over the ethics of live site deletions.

Cyber threats and cyber criminals indiscriminately target the old as well as young regardless of race, creed or origin. Teens and young adults must realize that on the Internet nobody knows you're a rat. How do we keep kids and young adults safe in an era of AI-driven attacks? Tom Arnold, Adjunct Professor, Digital Evidence & Forensics, Cybersecurity Graduate Program at the University of Nevada Las Vegas, joins Business Security Weekly to discuss his new book: The Digital Detective: First Intervention. We examine how technologies like deepfakes, voice cloning, and hyper-personalized scams are being used to target younger audiences, and what parents, educators, communities, and CISOs can do to build awareness, resilience, and smart digital habits. Learn how today's highly organized operations, powered by automation and advanced AI, power the bad actors' tools, techniques, and procedures—making them more effective than ever. Understanding the past helps us prepare for the future—and protect the next generation online, including our employees.

Aaron Leland, a security researcher and advocate for neurodiversity in cybersecurity, shares insights on the urgency of inclusion in the industry. He discusses the ethical implications of recent AI technologies like Grok, which has faced backlash for generating non-consensual images. The conversation also explores the growing threat of sextortion from breaches like the one at Pornhub and highlights new state privacy laws, particularly in Rhode Island. Leland emphasizes the importance of understanding neurodiversity in building a more inclusive cybersecurity landscape.
