Cybersecurity AI Explained: Agentic AI, PQC, and Real-World Security Challenges

At the 2025 RSA Conference, Justin Foster joins Zeus Kerravala to break down where AI in cybersecurity is actually delivering value and where it’s falling short. As security teams deal with growing complexity, many are finding that today’s AI tools create as much friction as they solve. This conversation explores how a shift toward agentic, skills-based AI can help teams move faster, reduce noise, and focus on what really matters.

Drilling vs Boring: Key Differences That Impact Precision

When you first step into the world of machining, it's easy to assume that all hole-making processes are basically the same. A hole is a hole, right? Not quite. If you've ever had a part fail tolerance checks or struggled with surface finish issues, you already know that the details matter. That's where the debate of drilling vs boring comes in. These two processes may look similar on the surface, but they serve very different purposes in real-world manufacturing. Choosing the wrong one can cost time, money, and even your reputation.

7 Practical Ways to Shrink Your Digital Footprint in 2026

The average internet user now leaks more personal data in a single day of routine browsing than most people disclosed in a decade two generations ago. Ad networks track page views, data brokers aggregate public records into sellable dossiers, and AI systems ingest everything from social posts to leaked databases to build inferred profiles of individuals. Privacy Rights Clearinghouse has catalogued more than 750 data brokers operating in the United States alone, and industry analysts estimate the broader data-broker economy will grow past half a trillion dollars by the end of the decade.

Stop Guessing AI Security: A Maturity Reality Check

Mend.io, formerly known as Whitesource, has over a decade of experience helping global organizations build world-class AppSec programs that reduce risk and accelerate development -– using tools built into the technologies that software and security teams already love. Our automated technology protects organizations from supply chain and malicious package attacks, vulnerabilities in open source and custom code, and open-source license risks.

How Lean Security Teams Stay Ahead of AI-Powered Attacks

In “Terminator 2“, the T-800 does not win because humans worked harder. It wins because the same machine capability that made it dangerous was reprogrammed to fight for the defenders. Project Glasswing is exactly that. Claude Mythos Preview is Anthropic’s most powerful AI model and the one they refused to release publicly because it autonomously found thousands of zero-day vulnerabilities across every major operating system and browser. Flaws that decades of expert review never caught.

Point-in-time GRC is obsolete. What's replacing it? It isn't AI alone

The last generation of Governance, Risk and Compliance (GRC) software built a multi-billion dollar ecosystem by becoming systems of record for risk. ServiceNow became the system of IT workflows. Archer for audits. Diligent for policy management. Own the control framework, own the workflow, own the audit trail. It worked: for a world where risk moved slowly enough to be captured annually. That world is gone. Point in time attestations are obsolete. The Apple Watch didn’t replace the annual checkup.

The Cloud Goes Dark: Can Your SecOps Stack Survive a Regional Outage?

When nation states target cloud infrastructure, MSSPs are at risk. Many security teams have quietly accepted this as someone else's problem. It isn't, and ignoring the problem only increases their risk exposure. A recent episode of the Cybersecurity Defenders Podcast featured a conversation on cloud infrastructure vulnerability between LimaCharlie Co-Founder Christopher Luft and Prophet Security R&D Guru, Matt Bromiley.

Frontier AI for Defenders: CrowdStrike and OpenAI TAC

CrowdStrike has been selected for OpenAI's Trusted Access for Cyber (TAC) program. Today, OpenAI released GPT-5.4-Cyber, a frontier model designed for defensive cybersecurity, and expanded the TAC program to give verified, selected defenders governed access through identity verification and tiered controls. CrowdStrike continues to lead the market in secure AI adoption, trusted by AI leaders and organizations of all sizes to accelerate the world's AI revolution.
