Is AI taking entry-level jobs a good thing? #cybersecurity #ai #podcast

There's growing concern that AI automation is removing the hands-on experience junior analysts need to develop into senior defenders. In this Intel Chat, Matt Bromiley and Chris Luft challenge that assumption. Matt breaks down why the traditional entry-level path of endless log review and alert triage was never the best training ground to begin with. Log detection, alert triage, and drift detection are often cited as how defenders learn the trade. But most analysts never had time to get to drift detection because they were buried in repetitive work.

Is PAM Really Solving Security Problems?

Privileged access management has long aimed to control powerful accounts, yet many environments still carry excessive permissions and weak accountability. Password vaults, rotating credentials and stronger governance place controls around admin accounts, linking PAM, access control and identity security to limit damage when something goes wrong.

Security Advisory: Critical RCE Vulnerabilities in React Server Components & Next.js (CVE-2025-55182 / CVE-2025-66478)

On December 3, 2025, coordinated disclosures revealed that multiple releases of React 19 and Next.js contain a critical flaw in the React Server Components (RSC) “Flight” protocol, allowing unauthenticated remote code execution (RCE).

Cloudflare's 2025 Q3 DDoS threat report -- including Aisuru, the apex of botnets

Welcome to the 23rd edition of Cloudflare’s Quarterly DDoS Threat Report. This report offers a comprehensive analysis of the evolving threat landscape of Distributed Denial of Service (DDoS) attacks based on data from the Cloudflare network. In this edition, we focus on the third quarter of 2025.

Cloudflare WAF proactively protects against React vulnerability

Cloudflare has deployed a new protection to address a vulnerability in React Server Components (RSC). All Cloudflare customers are automatically protected, including those on free and paid plans, as long as their React application traffic is proxied through the Cloudflare Web Application Firewall (WAF). Cloudflare Workers are inherently immune to this exploit. React-based applications and frameworks deployed on Workers are not affected by this vulnerability.

Attackers Don't Need to Breach Your API -They'll Breach the Tools That Touch It

The API supply chain is the new security blind spot. Attackers no longer need to breach your APIs directly; they can target the third-party services that connect to them. These unmanaged dependencies are now the shortest path to your sensitive data. The recent Mixpanel incident is a stark reminder of that fact.
