In this interview, Rafa López analyzes the evolution of cyber threats, highlighting everything from individual fraud cases in luxury hotels to the dismantling of groups such as Anonymous Fénix, which carried out denial-of-service (DDoS) attacks against Spanish public institutions for ideological reasons following the DANA. López emphasizes that modern hacktivism, often aligned with pro-Russian interests such as Killnet or NoName, differs from traditional cybercrime because it seeks total disruption or the unavailability of critical infrastructure and public services, rather than purely economic gain. This threat is global and persistent, affecting both public administrations and SMEs, which may even go bankrupt due to the impact of such attacks. To address this challenge, he highlights the critical need for organizations to maintain visibility over their exposed assets and to deploy defensive technologies such as WAFs (web application firewalls) and anti-DDoS systems, complemented by human expertise to continuously adjust these tools in response to ongoing attacks.

In this episode the evolution of cyber threats and the rise of hacktivism are explored, featuring Rafa López (CiberCapitán), who delves into the ideological motivations and destructive nature of groups such as Anonymous Phoenix and their impact on critical infrastructures. Experts Pablo San Emeterio and Mónica Valle review current news, including a massive bank data breach in France following the impersonation of an official, a ransomware attack on medical centers in Mississippi, and the unusual case of a young man who manipulated payment gateways to stay in luxury hotels for just one cent. The program highlights the importance of asset visibility and the use of technologies such as web application firewalls (WAFs) so that both large organizations and SMEs can protect themselves against denial-of-service attacks. Finally, it warns about new phishing trends on LinkedIn and provides details about the upcoming RootedCon 2026 conference.

In this interview, David Fernández Granado from Cypher / Prosegur and Pablo Vera from Zscaler analyze the radical evolution of cybersecurity, which has shifted from a “boxed product” to a service- and trust-based model focused on risk management in a globalized and hyperconnected environment. The experts highlight the value of a “glocal” approach—global technology with local execution—to address challenges such as supply chain protection and support for SMEs, which benefit from platforms like XMDR that help democratize access to premium security services. They also discuss solutions for securing industrial IoT through technologies such as Z-SIM and emphasize artificial intelligence as an essential ally for automating processes and addressing the talent shortage in the sector. Finally, they stress the need to grant greater authority to CISOs within organizations and to harmonize regulations (such as NIS2) to bring order to a rapidly growing market shaped by geopolitical uncertainty.

This episode of Cyber AfterWork explores the evolving cybersecurity landscape through the strategic alliance between Zscaler and Cypher (Prosegur’s cybersecurity unit), emphasizing that a company's security is only as strong as its "weakest link," a point illustrated by recent third-party breaches at Volvo. The discussion highlights significant market consolidation through multi-billion dollar acquisitions and the shift from viewing security as a simple "commodity" to a specialized, trust-based service. A key innovation featured is the Z-SIM technology, designed to secure IoT and industrial devices (PLCs) without voiding manufacturer warranties. To address the needs of SMEs, the experts detail how the XMDR platform provides premium protection by using technology to amplify the reach of scarce human talent. Finally, the guests advocate for a "glocal" approach—combining global technological scale with local expertise—and the defensive use of artificial intelligence to automate routine tasks and prepare for upcoming regulatory requirements like NIS 2.

In this interview features Pablo Vera, a representative of a technology solutions provider, and Gonzalo Asensio, a cybersecurity expert in the banking sector, who analyze the challenges of digital security heading into 2026. During the discussion, the experts explain how artificial intelligence is enabling attackers to reduce costs and automate processes, forcing organizations to use AI defensively to improve detection and proactive response. They highlight the evolution of technology toward agentic AI and the critical importance of implementing a “Zero Trust” philosophy, which is based on granting minimal privileges and continuously monitoring the behavior of both users and agents to protect information. Finally, they emphasize the need to establish strategies for the secure adoption of AI to prevent the leakage of confidential data, and point out the economic challenge that small businesses face in complying with demanding regulations such as NIS2.

Esta entrevista cuenta con la participación de Pablo Vera, representante de un fabricante de soluciones tecnológicas, y Gonzalo Asensio, experto en ciberseguridad del sector bancario, quienes analizan los desafíos de la seguridad digital de cara a 2026. Durante el encuentro, los expertos explican cómo la inteligencia artificial está permitiendo a los atacantes reducir costes y automatizar procesos, lo que obliga a las organizaciones a emplear la propia IA de forma defensiva para mejorar la detección y la respuesta proactiva. Se destaca la evolución de la tecnología hacia la IA agéntica y la importancia crítica de implementar una filosofía de "Confianza Cero" (Zero Trust), la cual se basa en otorgar privilegios mínimos y monitorizar constantemente el comportamiento tanto de usuarios como de agentes para proteger la información. Finalmente, subrayan la necesidad de establecer estrategias para una adopción segura de la IA que prevenga la fuga de datos confidenciales y señalan el reto económico que enfrentan las pequeñas empresas para cumplir con normativas exigentes como la NIS2.
