The latest generation of AI models has collapsed the time from vulnerability discovery to weaponized exploit from weeks to minutes, and reactive, module-based tools built around static dashboards simply can't keep up. In this episode, Tanium COO Matt Quinn joins Business Security Weekly to discuss Tanium Atlas, the new autonomous operating system for IT and security. Matt explains why "good enough" operations are now a liability, how Atlas turns a single operator into the equivalent of an entire team, giving organizations the speed, scale, and efficiency to match the pace of today's threat environment. He also breaks down why nearly two decades of real-time endpoint telemetry across more than 36 million endpoints is the foundation no AI model can replicate on its own.

Mobile applications have unique risks and threat models compared to server-side applications and infrastructure. Consequently, they need different strategies to ensure their business logic and workflows well secured. We'll dive into some of these defense-in-depth strategies and why they are important to mobile applications. Securing workflows goes beyond input validation and pattern matching suspicious payloads; it requires detailed attention to state machines, edge cases, and collecting signals to evaluate trust.

Interview with Sandy Bird, co-founder of Sonrai Security In this week's interview, we kick off the conversation with how Sonrai's expertise in securing cloud identity permissions had the company well placed to address the explosion of AI agents and the clear risks they represented. On the surface, this looks like a cloud/hyperscaler permissions challenge, but it isn't that simple. As agents like Claude Code, Codex, and Hermes are connected to enterprise cloud agents, the risk spreads outside VPCs and onto endpoints. Check out the episode to learn more about some of the most common risks Sandy finds and how Sonrai goes about addressing them. This segment is sponsored by Sonrai Security.

Segment Resources AWS Bedrock agent permissions: what you need to lock down before you go live Making Enterprise AI Agents Accountable with Amir Ofek, CEO and Co-Founder of aizome Organizations looking to unlock the power of Enterprise AI Agents, and in a controlled and safe way at the speed of AI. Identity is at the heart of it. However, NHI Governance Is Not Enough for Enterprise AI Agents. The identity industry has responded to the rise of AI agents the same way it responds to every new identity challenge: extend existing frameworks. Map agents to human owners. Enforce least privilege. Govern them like non-human identities. It is a reasonable instinct. It is also insufficient in ways that matter enormously. Non-human identity security was built for a deterministic world - service accounts, API keys, bots. These identities do what they are configured to do. Their behavior is predictable enough that static governance models work. Enterprise AI agents are categorically different. Not in degree - in kind. They don't execute fixed instructions. They reason, plan, and adapt in response to context. Their scope shifts with every task. Their behavior at runtime can diverge significantly from anything true at provisioning time. Unlike any identity that came before them, they frequently change their intent, at a pace no governance model built for human movers or machine credentials was designed to handle. Wrapping them in the same framework you use for a service account isn't wrong. It's just insufficient in precisely the places where risk accumulates.

SquidBleed reveals another vuln that's been lurking for decades, but its real lesson is in managing an attack surface. Regardless of whatever programming language you use, removing code is one of the best security steps you can take, followed by changing default configs to turn off uncommon features and ancient protocols. The Linux kernel's removal of strncpy is another example of managing attack surface by replacing a notoriously misused and ambiguous function with more specific versions that better match the developers intent. It was a six-year journey for the kernel, but one that should remove a class of vulns and, importantly, improve performance. Then it's on to agents with a discussion of the newly released OWASP AISVS and yet another example of evaluating LLMs as code reviewers. Agentic AI Has an Identity Problem AI agents are already running inside enterprise environments, operating on credentials, API tokens, and cloud roles that most security teams have never inventoried. When an agent acts autonomously across production systems, the security question is no longer just what it can do but who it is and whether that identity is governed at all. Itamar Apelblat, Co-Founder and CEO of Token Security, discusses why identity is the right lens for understanding agentic AI risk and what practical steps security teams can take now.

The 2026 Verizon DBIR has arrived and the results are in... Even with a substantial increase in Exploitation of Vulnerabilities, All Credential Abuse is still the top initial access vector for breaches, which means the human is still the weakest link. Why haven't security awareness training and phishing campaigns worked? Robert Siciliano, Architect of of The Strategic Human Firewall™ at ProtectNow, joins Business Security Weekly to explore why humans, not hackers, are the ultimate deciding factor in organizational security. The industry needs to shift from security awareness to security appreciation.

Appsec has seen machine identities from daemons and processes to services, microservices, and cloud accounts. And now we have agents. Ev Kontsevoy talks about what it means to have engineers and agents interacting in an environment, and why a focus on actions can be more effective than roles. One of the biggest challenges in securing agents along with all of the other identities that organizations manage is how fragmented that management has become. But a unified engineering view of identities is just a start. Once you're able to shift to a practice where access is granted based on attributes and limited durations, then your environment becomes more resilient to mistakes and unexpected actions, not to mention the security concerns that come with agents acting on their own. Who Is Responsible for an AI Agent's Actions? As AI agents gain the ability to access systems, invoke tools, and take action on behalf of users, organizations need clear frameworks that define responsibility for machine-driven decisions and outcomes. This segment examines how accountability, delegation, and attribution can be established across users, developers, security teams, and business stakeholders. Neha will explore how governance models support transparent, auditable agent-driven workflows while helping organizations manage risk and maintain trust. This segment is sponsored by P0 Security.

Topic Segment: Verizon's Breach Impact Study The same team that delivers the DBIR every year gave us a bonus, based on over 70,000 insurance claims! Some of my favorite insights: Cost of breaches, broken out by SMB, mid-sized enterprise, and large The claim amount as a percentage of the company's revenue Losses broken down by loss TYPE This data validates something I think everyone in cyber needs to understand: cyber events are rarely business-ending events. Every cybersecurity professional and vendor, frustrated by companies "not taking security seriously enough" now have data explaining why: breaches don't hurt as much as you thought they did. Maybe you think they should hurt more? Push for regulation/fines/etc. With that said, the report also shows breach costs increasing significantly over the past 6 years and the quantity of incidents shooting up. Specifically, the median impact has almost doubled. Security failures aren't getting any cheaper. Weekly Enterprise News Finally, in the enterprise security news, A $100M seed round!

Most AppSec teams are working through more findings than their teams can validate. SAST surfaces thousands of potential issues. DAST generates alert volume that outpaces triage capacity. Somewhere in that output are the vulnerabilities that matter, the ones that are actually exploitable in production. This conversation explores why automated testing often stops short of the hardest part of the job: proving what is real.

Interview with Evan Powell - Generative and agentic AI are improving cyberattacks faster than they're improving cyber defenses. Offensive folks have been having the most luck with AI so far, which is further eroding any advantage defenders might have had. Evan Powell joins us to share some ideas on how defenders can get some benefits from AI as well, and why open source is important with this approach. Topic For this week's topic segment, we've got two very interesting data sources. The first is Anthropic's first update on Project Glasswing, where they're absolutely tearing through codebases with ultra premium Mythos tokens, but then hitting a human-shaped bottleneck as they attempt to validate all the findings. The second is the first report from Root Evidence, the latest startup from Jeremiah Grossman and Robert Hansen (aka RSnake), which aims to help organizations filter out all the vulnerabilities that don't matter. Where these two reports meet in the middle is my concern that the use of AI to scour every last bug out of code is going to be the most Sisyphean task the cybersecurity industry has ever come up with (and we have some deep experience here).

RSA Conference (RSAC) 2026, the 35th annual flagship event for cybersecurity, drew over 43,500 attendees, featuring more than 600 exhibitors, 570+ sessions, and 700+ speakers from 104 countries. It generated 370 million social media impressions. With this size and reach, what should security leaders expect when they attend? Joseph Blankenship, Vice President, Research Director at Forrester Research, and Adrian Sanabria, host of Enterprise Security Weekly, join Business Security Weekly for a special recording from RSAC 2026. This pre-recorded session was filmed live from the conference on March 24, 2026. We discuss what security leaders will see, what they should expect from attending, and a few predictions for the future. If you didn't attend the conference, don't worry, this is a great way to get an inside view. And maybe it helps you decide to attend next year. Show Notes: https://securityweekly.com/bsw-449

We showcase recordings from this year's RSAC. At RSAC Conference 2026, Scott Clinton, Co-Chair and co-founder of the OWASP GenAI Security Project, shares insights from the project's latest research, including new landscape guides and evolving approaches to securing generative and agentic AI systems. The conversation explores critical gaps in GenAI data security, the rise of AI-assisted development, and the immense growth of the OWASP community and sponsor ecosystem. Looking ahead, he outlines the most urgent risks and priorities shaping AI and agentic security in 2026. Then Merritt Maxim discusses how AI is affecting Identity and Access Management. Expect to hear this topic a lot throughout 2026, especially as the industry tries to figure out what's different or special about securing agent identities. We close with a chat with Janet Worthington about the impact of agents on the SDLC and how orgs are updating their controls to deal with code generated by humans and LLMs alike.

Interview with Rob Allen from Threatlocker This week, Rob Allen from Threatlocker is with us to discuss the importance of EDR and MDR visibility. We discuss some real world attacks and anecdotes where EDR was able to save the day when threats were missed by other controls. Topic: Do the basics, they said. Easier said than done. Guillaume and Adrian discuss the futility of attempting to do all the foundational work standards, best practices, and regulations expect of organizations. Adrian has given up. Fortunately, Guillaume has some excellent advice and hope to share on this front.

Over the last decade, cybersecurity heavily invested in EDR, XDR, SIEM, telemetry, and SOC-driven operations. We stopped asking how to stop attacks and started asking how fast we could detect them. However, Mythos and frontier models have changed that paradigm. How do you detect a -7 day vulnerability? Detection and response cannot keep, so what's the answer? Rob Allen, Chief Product Officer at ThreatLocker, joins Business Security Weekly to discuss why cybersecurity is shifting from detection and response to prevention and enforcement. As attackers accelerate through automation and AI, organizations are revisiting prevention-focused controls. Rob will discuss why organizations need to adopt application allowlisting, Zero Trust, Ringfencing, and policy enforcement to reduce attacker freedom before execution occurs. Prevention-first security is the only way to decrease the AI attack surface. This segment is sponsored by ThreatLocker. Visit https://securityweekly.com/threatlocker to learn more about them!

This year has been a dichotomy of established secure design fundamentals and burgeoning chaos of LLM-driven vuln discovery. Keith Hoodlet returns to share his latest observations on what the recent news about Mythos, models, and harnesses means for appsec. He walks through the problems of misalignment, the potential development doom that looms behind a volume of vulns, and what modern code creation looks like. Along the way we touch on the economics of tokens and the principles behind secure software. Keith gave a preview of his upcoming presentation (May 22nd) on these topics. Check out https://securing.dev/about/ for the slides and more of his writing on appsec. Show Notes: https://securityweekly.com/asw-383

Interview with Dimitri Sirota from BigID Most organizations think AI risk lives in the model – or the identity. It doesn't. It lives in the data. In this episode, BigID's CEO reframes the conversation: why legacy access controls are breaking down, why visibility into sensitive data is the missing foundation, and what it takes to govern humans and machines under a single, accountable framework. Segment Resources: BigID's Agent Access Management Guide BigID's podcast, CTRL + ALT + AI This Week's Topic: Cascading Breaches We're seeing more and more 3rd and 4th party attacks that chain through multiple layers of compromised tools and services. In this topic segment, we discuss the two main aspects of this trend: How we can stop the chain of breaches from a third party library, vendor, or service provider How this might get handled at the legal, contractual, and organizational levels We discuss two big recent examples: Sonicwall's 2025 breach of their cloud firewall configuration backup service The compromise of Aqua Security's widely used Trivy open source tool The Weekly Enterprise News Finally, in the enterprise security news, Funding and M&A courtesy of the Security, Funded newsletter We have evidence that attackers are leveraging AI now (this sounds like old news, but there was little to no evidence before, when people were claiming this) The Angry admin problem emerges again Vulnerability information is getting crazy to keep up with Breach information is getting crazy to keep up with You can give your Agents an allowance now - don't spend it all in one place Are vulnerabilities sparse or dense?
