Executive Paralysis and Two Pre-Recorded RSAC 2026 Interviews from DigiCert and Okta - Amit Sinha, Ann Marie van den Hurk, Matt Immler - BSW #441
Most organizations don’t fail because of technology. They fail because decision authority is unclear in the first critical minutes. “Being careful” is often interpreted as waiting for certainty, but that delay creates exposure. How should executives make decisions under pressure? Ann Marie van den Hurk, Founder at Mind The Gap Advisory, joins Business Security Weekly to discuss how executive paralysis leads to business damage. Ann Marie will discuss: Where Paralysis Actually Comes From What “Being Careful” Looks Like in Practice Why the First 20 Minutes Matter How Paralysis Becomes Business Damage Why Existing Plans Don’t Hold What Actually Fixes It Then, we rebroadcast two interviews from RSAC 2026. Autonomous Intelligence and the Future of Digital Trust AI agents are no longer experimental tools — they are becoming autonomous participants in enterprise infrastructure. Acting independently, making decisions at machine speed, and interacting directly with sensitive systems, these agents fundamentally reshape the trust model that underpins modern organizations. As AI becomes embedded across operations, security must evolve from perimeter defense to continuous, identity-driven trust. This conversation explores what it means to build a resilient trust architecture for autonomous systems — one that ensures verifiable identity, constrained authority, accountability, and governance at scale. We’ll examine how enterprises can balance innovation with control, prevent misuse or spoofed agents, and prepare for a future defined by machine-to-machine interactions. At stake is not just cybersecurity, but the integrity of digital trust itself. This segment is sponsored by DigiCert. Visit https://securityweekly.com/digicertrsac to learn more about them! Know Your AI Agents Through Visibility, Control, and Accountability AI agents are rapidly embedding into core enterprise workflows with broad access to sensitive systems and the ability to act autonomously, creating new challenges for security leaders tasked with enabling innovation while maintaining control. In this interview, Matt Immler will discuss why organizations must know about every agent operating in their environment and how to bring those agents under governance.

Beyond the Hype: Cyber Readiness, Zero Trust, and an Unscripted Conversation - Rob Allen, Gibb Witham - SWN #568
In the AI era, cybersecurity is undergoing a fundamental shift as AI agents transform both the speed and scale of attacks. In this interview, Gibb Witham, President and Chief Financial Officer of Hack The Box, explains why organizations must move beyond assumed AI capability toward measurable, validated cyber readiness for both humans and AI systems. Drawing on real-world benchmarks, agentic AI testing, and hands-on training, Witham outlines how security teams can safely adopt AI by proving performance under pressure. The discussion highlights why the future of cybersecurity depends on training, testing, and reinforcing human and AI operators together before they are trusted in critical environments. This segment is sponsored by Hack The Box. Visit https://securityweekly.com/hacktheboxrsac to learn more about them! As credential-based attacks continue to dominate headlines, many organizations are realizing that identity alone is no longer a sufficient control. This conversation explores the shift toward device-based access enforcement and why tying access to both user and device is becoming critical. We’ll discuss how this evolution is reshaping Zero Trust strategies across modern environments. This segment is sponsored by ThreatLocker.

Developing the Skills Needed for Modern Software Development - Keith Hoodlet, Shashwat Sehgal, Ron Rasin - ASW #376
The future of secure software is going through a mix of skills expected of humans and skills files created for LLMs. We might even posit that appsec as a discipline will fade (and that might not even be a bad thing!). Keith Hoodlet describes the skills he was looking for in building teams of security researchers and why there's still an emphasis on the ability to learn about and understand how software is built. But figuring out what skills will get you hired and what skills are valuable to invest in still feels daunting to new grads and others entering the security industry. We discuss where the role of appsec seems to be heading and a few of the security and software fundamentals that can help you follow that direction. Segment resources https://bsidessf2026.sched.com/event/2E1h4/we-pwn-the-night-growing-leading-an-31337-security-research-team?iframe=yes&w=100%&sidebar=yes&bg=no https://drive.google.com/file/d/1_zLH8vuHU1XOjEyk85WecQwSByDwxAmQ/view?pli=1 https://securing.dev/posts/if-i-were-eighteen-again/ https://research.nvidia.com/labs/lpr/slm-agents/ Then, we rebroadcast two interviews from RSAC 2026. The Identity Crisis of Agentic AI Identity security is being stretched between legacy infrastructure that was never built to be secure and rapidly emerging AI agents and non-human identities that organizations are quickly adopting. As AI accelerates, identity risk grows alongside it, making agentic security fundamentally an identity challenge—because the more access AI has, the greater both its power and potential risk. In this session, Ron Rasin explores how past gaps in areas like Active Directory and machine identities created today’s blind spots, and why identity must now act as the control plane for AI-driven enterprises, with real-time enforcement before access is granted. He also highlights new innovations and partnerships enabling embedded identity controls across human, non-human, and AI identities, emphasizing that at machine speed, reactive security is no longer enough.

Privileged by Design: AI Agents and the New Identity Risk to Production Systems At RSAC this year, the AI conversation is getting more practical. Less “look what agents can do” and more “who’s actually in control when an autonomous system can take real actions across business apps and infrastructure.” The Moltbook breach and the growing attention on OpenClaw-style agent vulnerabilities put real weight behind that question because they show how quickly agent ecosystems can scale past oversight. Today we’re talking with Shashwath, CEO of P0 Security, about why identity and authorization are the quiet enablers of modern AI, where teams are losing control as non-human identities explode and what security leaders can do to keep innovation moving without turning access sprawl into enterprise risk.

Oops, all Interviews: Switching to Cyber, CISO Reflections, and the State of TPCRM - Alexandre Sieira, Lenny Zeltser, Helen Patton - ESW #452
Interview with Helen Patton about her new book, Switching to Cyber Helen joins us to discuss her second book, "Switching to Cyber." Her first book discussed strategies for handling various stages of the cybersecurity career, while this one, co-written with Josiah Dykstra, provides a guide for switching to cyber mid-career. Check out her book, Switching to Cyber: The Mid-Career Guide to Launching a Cybersecurity Career: on Amazon on Barnes & Noble and on the publisher's website Interview with Lenny Zeltzer: Reflections on Being a CISO After a cybersecurity career in various roles, doing everything from product management to malware analysis training, Lenny spent 6 years in the CISO seat at Axonius, from near the inception of the company through its growth from its modest Series A stage in 2019 to the present, with nearly a billion in funding today. Lenny's CISO Essays: What Being a CISO Taught Me About Security Leadership As a CISO, Are You a Builder, Fixer, or Scale Operator? The Chief Insecurity Officer Interview with Alexandre Sieira: The state of TPCRM is shifting The gold standard for third party cyber risk management has long been the humble questionnaire. While we've seen security rating services companies generate scores by scanning a company's external resources. Both approaches are widely considered inaccurate for either creating trust relationships or determining the true risk of doing business with a third party. Every analysis of this problem comes to the same conclusion: without internal data about the state of systems and the security program, TPCRM can't improve substantially. Most this believe this to be an impossible problem: third parties would never share data this sensitive with a customer and first parties assume the same. What if they did? That's exactly the premise behind Tenchi Security, and Alexandre joins us to talk about how they've accomplished the 'impossible' in Brazil and aim to expand their success to the US.

Say Easy, Do Hard - Crypto-Agility - BSW #440
With Q-day getting closer, regulatory guidance pushing firms to migrate to quantum security in the next five years, and an extensive remediation backlog waiting to be discovered, security leaders must start their quantum security migration today. Easier said than done. In this Say Easy, Do Hard segment, we discuss the quantum-safe journey using a framework for crypto-agility. In part 1, we define cryptographic agility, or crypto-agility for short, and why it's important. Crypto-agility is not just about transitioning to quantum-safe cryptography in the nimblest way possible, and it’s not something that can be achieved merely by updating encryption algorithms and protocols. Instead, you need to adapt your organization’s cryptographic architecture, automation, and governance to allow for greater control and flexibility. In part 2, we discuss a framework for discovery, prioritization, and remediation while keeping crypto-agility in mind. A quantum-safe journey requires: Inventory of Systems With Non-Quantum-Safe Algorithms And Protocols System Prioritization, Leading To A Migration Roadmap Remediation, Including Vendors And Partners Once a distant possibility, Q-Day is quickly approaching.

Why Proactive Security Is Far Better Than Patching - Erik Nost - ASW #375
So much of appsec’s efforts can be consumed by vuln management and a race to patch security flaws. But that’s more a symptom of the ease of scanning and the volume of CVEs. Erik Nost walks through the principles behind proactive security, why the concept sounds familiar to secure by design, and why organizations still struggle with creating effective practices for visibility.

Creating Better Security Guidance and Code with LLMs - Mark Curphey - ASW #374
What happens when secure coding guidance goes stale? What happens LLMs write code from scratch? Mark Curphy walks us through his experience updating documentation for writing secure code in Go and recreating one of his own startups. One of the themes of this conversation is how important documentation is, whether it's intended for humans or for prompts to LLMs. Importantly, LLMs don't innovate on their own -- they rely on the data they're trained on. And that means there should be good authoritative sources for what secure code looks like. It also means that instructions to LLMs need to be clear and precise enough to produce something useful.

Exposed: Bank Leak, Copilot Zero-Click, AI Agent Hijacks, Stryker Wipe & Josh Marpet - SWN #563
This episode is all about trust getting abused at scale. We start with Chinese-nexus operators pivoting fast onto Qatar using conflict lures and familiar tradecraft. Then we hit banking, because they deserve it: Lloyds, Halifax, and Bank of Scotland customers seeing other people’s transactions in-app, a straight confidentiality failure, not “someone hacked my phone”. From there it’s the Middle East conflict exposing what “cloud resilience” really means when the problem isn’t cyber, it’s physical disruption and dependency chains. Then Meta’s takedown of 150,000 scam-linked accounts shows the fraud supply chain is still running hot, and the platforms are now part of the battleground whether they like it or not. The Microsoft story is the one to watch: a critical Excel bug that turns Copilot Agent into a zero-click data leak path. And the AI agent theme keeps going with Context7: attackers slipping instructions into “helpful” context and getting agents to do dumb, destructive things on their behalf. We finish with Stryker having the worst day with a major outage, disputed claims, and a reminder that if your management plane gets hit, you can lose the whole estate fast. Look at Intune. No hype.

Being Exploitable While Your Risk Tolerance Changes and You Unblock Innovation - Myke Lyons - BSW #438
AI has created a dilemma for security teams. Attackers are using AI to develop exploits to newly disclosed vulnerabilities faster than security teams can patch them. Security teams have not fully leveraged the capabilities of AI to autonomously prevent these attacks. Without a radical change in approach, organizations will be exposed to an exponentially increasing attack surface. How long can your organization tolerate being exploitable? Myke Lyons, CISO at Cribl, joins Business Security Weekly to discuss why organizations need to embrace AI to understand the behavior of attacks to effectively prevent them. For decades, we've focused on the Indicators of Compromise (IoCs) and have played whack-a-mole to try and patch them. Instead, we should focus on the Tactics, Techniques, and Procedures (TTPs) and leverage LLMs to understand the behavior of the attack. Once we understand the behaviors, we can implement preventative controls to minimize exposure. And yes, AI can also help us automate patching, when we're ready to trust it.

Breaking in with CrashFix, supply chain security, and CMMC phase 1 - David Zendzian, Anna Pham, Jacob Horne - ESW #449
Interview with Anna Pham Breaking in with ClickFix: Anatomy of a modern endpoint attack Cybersecurity company Huntress just published a report on a new ClickFix variant they’ve discovered, which they’ve dubbed CrashFix. This technique was developed by KongTuke to serve as the primary lure within a new custom malicious browser extension also created by the group. In short, the team observed the threat actors using KongTuke’s malicious browser extension to display a fake security warning, claiming the browser had “stopped abnormally” and prompting users to run a “scan” to remediate the threats. Upon “running the scan,” the user is presented with a fake “Security issues detected” alert and instructed to manually “fix” the issue by opening the Windows Run dialog, pasting from their clipboard, and pressing Enter. The malicious extension silently copies a PowerShell command to the clipboard, disguised as a legitimate repair command. From there, they execute the malicious command. Segment Resources: BLOG - Dissecting CrashFix: KongTuke's New Toy Interview with David Zendzian Continuous compliance and real security lifecycle management Supply chain attacks are not just on the rise; attackers are learning from the past, making these attacks even more effective and dangerous than before. It was just over a month ago when the Shai-Hulud attack first impacted NPM packages, forcing enterprises around the world into lockdown. While only 187 packages were compromised in that initial incident, it served as a wake-up call for many: an accurate inventory of systems is good, but a clear, real-time Software Bill of Materials (SBOM) for applications is non-negotiable. In this world of manifest based infrastructure and container based applications with (real) "devsecops", the dream of continuous upgrades of OS/Runtime/Stack/App and App Dependencies is very mature and there are solid examples of companies and federal entities managing this at scale without thousands of teams and people.

Building Trusted Automation as Leaders Struggle with AI Adoption and CISOs Hire - Tim Morris - BSW #437
With the introduction of Agentic AI, autonomous "everything" is all the rage. But we've been burned by automation in the past. Remember the days of Intrusion Prevention Systems and why we never put them into blocking mode? Automation may be the future of security and IT operations, but the path to autonomous "everything" must be earned. How do you build autonomous capabilities with confidence and trust? Tim Morris, Financial Services Strategist at Tanium, joins Business Security Weekly to discuss how teams can introduce autonomous capabilities in a crawl-walk-run progression that builds trust over time. Automation is not about laying off employees, it's about efficiency and speed.
