Title: 2025 Ends With a Bang This week on the podcast, we cover a wave of attacks against network edge equipment and internet-exposed systems including an update on the recently patched Firebox 0-Day. After that, we cover two stories on browser extensions siphoning off data and making unwanted modifications to victim’s web browsing activity.

This episode unpacks the accelerating threat of phishing, account takeover (ATO), and digital impersonation in the age of AI. Gideon Hazam, Co-Founder at Memcyco, explains why brand impersonation is still treated as “lower urgency” by many organizations, how that blind spot enables real-world fraud, and what preemptive, real-time defense looks like when attackers operate at machine speed.

AI isn’t creating new security problems, it’s exposing existing ones at scale. GitGuardian saw 24M secrets leaked on public GitHub last year (+25%), and private repos are far more likely to contain secrets because people get careless when they feel safe. AI also enables more non-developers to ship apps without security training and generates oversized PRs that can’t be realistically reviewed, increasing leak risk. Attackers increasingly don’t “hack”, they use leaked credentials to log in and blend in like normal users, making traditional incident response less effective.

Cyberattacks are evolving fast; powered by AI, deepfakes, ransomware, phishing, and growing software supply chain risk. So how prepared is your organization? In this webcast, we breakdown key findings from the 2025 LevelBlue Futures Report (in partnership with FT Longitude). The report is based on a global survey of 1,500 C-suite and senior executives across 16 countries and seven industries, including healthcare, financial services, energy, and manufacturing.

This month, we sit down with Ilina Cashiola, SVP of Corporate Communications, as she shares about her belief in the power of manifestation, her view of the future of communications within the cybersecurity industry, and so much more!

In this episode of The New CISO, host Steve Moore speaks with Alex Rice, Founder, CTO, and CISO at HackerOne, about challenging one of cybersecurity's most deeply held beliefs—that security should be the top priority. Drawing from his journey building security programs at Facebook and founding HackerOne, Alex introduces the "safety third" philosophy and explains why accepting that security is never first can actually make you more effective as a leader.

Despite the connection with Robert De Niro, we won’t be spoiling Zero Day for you yet. But there is a large intersection between the future of media, cybersecurity, and AI, and we’re excited to jump into it! Join Aleksandr Yampolskiy (CEO & Co-Founder, SecurityScorecard) and Sandy Climan (President, Entertainment Media Ventures, Inc.) in this webinar, where they chat about: SecurityScorecard monitors and scores over 12 million companies worldwide.

Your security tools can detect credit card numbers, but they are blind to the files that actually matter. In this demo, we show how sensitive documents like: Internal source code Financial forecasts Performance reviews Customer lists are automatically detected and blocked in Slack, Google Drive, SharePoint, Gmail, and even ChatGPT using Nightfall’s new AI-powered file classifiers. No regex. No keywords. No training data.
