Agentic AI and the New Security Choke Point - #188

Agentic AI is moving fast — and it’s changing how risk shows up inside modern organizations.Autonomous AI agents are no longer just answering questions. They’re wired into cloud consoles, internal tools, ticketing systems, and finance platforms, acting on our behalf with real permissions and real consequences. And in the rush to automate, many teams are quietly centralizing access in ways security models were never designed to handle.In this episode, Ben sits down with Tyler Moffitt to break down what’s actually happening with agentic AI, why security teams are raising red flags, and how incentives around speed, automation, and scale are reshaping risk. They explore over-permissioned agents, token hygiene failures, broken separation of duties, and why AI agents are becoming the new security choke point.The conversation also looks at how attackers are already using agentic AI to operate at machine speed — and what defenders can do now to design systems that assume compromise rather than perfection.If you’re building, deploying, or securing AI agents, this is a conversation you can’t afford to miss.As featured on Million Podcasts' Best 100 Cybersecurity Podcasts  Top 50 Chief Information Security Officer CISO Podcasts Top 70 Security Hacking PodcastsThis list is the most comprehensive ranking of Cyber Security Podcasts online and we are honoured to feature amongst the best!Follow or subscribe to the show on your preferred podcast platform.Share the show with others in the cybersecurity world.Get in touch via [email protected]
