Interview with Ankita Gupta, CEO of Akto How to Navigate Shadow AI Risk in the enterprise This week, we discuss AI governance in the enterprise, starting with the nuts and bolts of how to discover and understand shadow AI. Following that, we dive into what security and tech leaders should do next with this information: apply guardrails? Limit vendor options? Ankita has a wealth of experience and anecdotes to share here, from years of working with customers and seeing all the unexpected things that happen with AI in today's workplace.

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!

In the security news this week: GPS spoofing and satellite jamming are getting way too accessible Rekeying satellites in orbit sounds terrifying Cyber extortion and whether criminals still have ethics AI helping cybersecurity research... and drug discovery Data centers eating regional power grids Nuclear, solar, natural gas, and the future of AI infrastructure What happens when GPS stops being trustworthy? Satellite constellations as the next critical infrastructure target AI guardrails and why sci-fi warned us first Cyber ranges that don't simulate reality anymore The weird morality line between hackers, scammers, and criminals Future satellite warfare without calling it warfare Security standards for infrastructure nobody thought would be online Historical cybersecurity stories that suddenly feel very current Why AI changes both offense and defense simultaneously And how much of modern cyber defense is just educated guessing Visit https://www.securityweekly.com/psw for all the latest episodes!

Interview with Shiva Pillay from Veeam Safe AI at Scale AI investment is exploding, yet nearly 90% of enterprise initiatives fail because the data powering AI cannot be trusted. That’s the uncomfortable truth the industry is facing right now. Safe AI at scale requires more than just great models—it demands trusted, governed, and recoverable data. This segment is sponsored by Veeam. Visit https://securityweekly.com/veeam to learn more about them! Segment resources: Veeam Launches New Data and AI Trust Maturity Model to Help Organizations Benchmark AI Readiness Topic: Sure, we know how initial access works, but what about lateral movement? A special topic segment where we're joined by Albert Estevez Polo, field CTO for Zero Networks (a community guest, not a podcast sponsor). Zero Networks just released some very interesting data on what attackers are doing after they gain access to victim's environments and how they're doing it.

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).
