Our latest discussion tackles persistent challenges in cybersecurity, specifically focusing on identity and access management (IAM). Experts highlight how attackers are now logging in rather than breaking in, underscoring the critical need for robust password encryption policies. This shift puts a spotlight on effective data protection and online security measures to safeguard against evolving threats.

As organizations accelerate adoption of AI agents, autonomous workflows powered by LLMs and MCP servers are rapidly proliferating across internal systems, partner networks, cloud environments, and API gateways. The result? A sprawling, often invisible attack surface: shadow APIs, duplicate endpoints, context drift, unmanaged agent access, inconsistent policies, and risk of data exposure or compliance failures.

This week on the podcast, we cover OWASP’s update to the top 10 web application security weaknesses and its changes from the 2021 list. We also cover a recently uncovered adversary-in-the-middle campaign that’s pushing malicious software updates to targeted systems. We conclude with our opinions on Microsoft’s latest AI features, which are coming to Windows.

In this video breakdown, we unpack the three pillars of a successful agentic experience: Autonomy — agents that act independently Guardrails — to keep decisions safe and data protected Integration + Context — so agents work seamlessly across tools without losing meaning At Protecto, we’re building the guardrails that keep your agents autonomous, context-aware, and enterprise-ready.

79% of CISOs have an AI policy in place, but only 48% of employees even know it exists. In this video, the director of UpGuard Research, explains why this gap is the real risk. Download the full (ungated) report to learn more.
