97. Security Is More Than AI in 2026

There’s more to security than AI models and keeping them safe. Identity and user security are sure to be hot topics during this year’s RSAC Conference. In this episode, Tom Hollingsworth is joined by Jack Poller and Drew Conry-Murray as they discuss what’s hot in the non-AI areas of security. They discuss the importance of identity-based security and how it can be extended to include non-human employees. They also discuss how enterprises are focused on securing browsers with extensions and not forcing a specific application. The guests debate the advantages and disadvantages of all of these aspects as well as how AI will eventually provide additional context around them all.Panelists: Jack Poller, Principal Analyst at Paradigm TechnicaDrew Conry-Murray, Editor-in-Chief at Packet Pushers⁠⁠⁠Tom Hollingsworth⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, Event Lead for Tech Field Day⁠⁠⁠⁠Alastair Cooke⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, Event Lead at Tech Field Day⁠⁠⁠⁠Stephen Foskett⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠, President and Organizer of ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Tech Field Day⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Follow the Tech Field Day Podcast ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠on X/Twitter⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ or ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠on Bluesky⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ and use the Hashtag #TFDPodcast to join the discussion.
