About this episode
This episode explores the transformative impact of AI agents on cybersecurity and the obsolescence of traditional security systems.

In this eye-opening episode, Vidit Arora, founder and CEO of Quillr AI, reveals how rapidly AI-powered agents are transforming the digital landscape—and why traditional security systems are already obsolete. As AI agents gain full control over data movement, system modifications, and even decision-making processes, security professionals face unprecedented challenges. Vidit uncovers why existing frameworks like DLP and CASB fall short in this new era, and how the lack of contextual understanding enables agents to bypass legacy controls. You'll discover how the speed at which AI agents evolve makes zero-day threats look slow—and the urgent need for inline reasoning and adaptive defenses to keep pace. We break down critical topics such as: The shift from AI assisting to AI acting with autonomy and intent Why current security paradigms can’t catch or control fully autonomous agents How understanding agent context, intent, and ecosystem visibility is now a security imperative The role of a new decision layer that inlines reasons…
