Eric O’Neill, former FBI ghost and author of “Spies, Lies & Cybercrime,” joins host David Puner to take a deep dive into the mindset and tactics needed to defend against today’s sophisticated cyber threats. Drawing on O’Neill’s experience catching spies and investigating cybercriminals, the conversation explains how thinking like an attacker can help organizations and individuals stay ahead.

Adopting a modern, cloud-native security information and event management (SIEM) solution is crucial for staying ahead of today’s complex cyberthreats. Whether you’re moving from an on-premises solution or migrating between cloud platforms, the transition to cloud-native SIEM can deliver significant benefits in scalability, flexibility, and advanced threat detection.

Large language models take in unstructured data. They transform it into context, embeddings, and answers. That journey touches raw files, vector stores, model logs, and third-party services. Traditional privacy programs focus on databases and forms. LLMs push risk to the edges. The riskiest moments are when you ingest messy content, when your system retrieves chunks to support an answer, and when an agent with tool access is tricked into over-sharing.

Muhammed Mayet, Global Sales Engineering Director, at Obrela elaborates on ENISA’s Threat Landscape 2025 and Microsoft’s Digital Defense Report 2025 and discusses how resilience can win over complexity The European Union Agency for Cybersecurity (ENISA), in its Threat Landscape 2025 report, paints a vivid picture of sustained and diverse cyberattacks across the EU.
