Cybersecurity has been on the Government Accountability Office's (GAO) high-risk list since 1997. Federal agencies struggle with issues like cyber hygiene, cyber workforce shortages and strategic execution. While agencies put strategies in place to secure their systems, the implementation and execution can be ineffective, according to GAO Managing Director of IT and Cybersecurity Nick Marinos. Marinos says that evolving threats have reshaped the cybersecurity landscape over the years in government, making evolution a moving target. Agencies are adjusting their workforces accordingly, he says, but is is difficult to keep pace with emerging technology. He underscores the urgency of streamlining federal hiring processes to prevent losing top talent to faster-moving private sector opportunities.

In this English-language episode of the My Precious Data Podcast, cybersecurity expert Eddy Willems sits down with longtime colleague (LSEC) and internationally renowned cryptographer Prof. Dr. Bart Preneel (KU Leuven). Together, they explore the past, present, and future of cybersecurity — from the foundations of cryptography to the political and societal challenges of digital trust today.Topics discussed:The evolution of cryptography and its real-world applicationsThe balance between privacy, security, and surveillanceQuantum computing: a threat or a promise?Europe's role in shaping global cybersecurity standardsWhat needs to change in the next decade?Quotes from the episode:“In the end, trust is not built by technology alone. It's about governance, transparency, and respect for users.” — Prof. Dr. Bart Preneel“People often think cybersecurity is just about hackers and firewalls. But it's deeply tied to our rights, our freedom, and the way societies function.” — Eddy Willems“We are now entering an era where cryptography will face its biggest challenge: quantum resistance.” — Prof. Dr. Bart PreneelThis is not just a technical conversation — it's a thought-provoking dialogue between two world-leading experts who have been part of the cybersecurity evolution for decades.

Alexander Schlager, CEO of Aiceberg.ai, discusses the intersection of artificial intelligence (AI) and cybersecurity, emphasizing the importance of securing AI-powered workflows. Aiceberg employs traditional machine learning techniques to safeguard generative AI systems, providing a deterministic and explainable approach to security. This method allows organizations to understand how their AI systems operate and ensures that they can trace and audit the decisions made by these systems, which is crucial in an era where AI incidents may lead to legal challenges.The conversation highlights the need for organizations to establish robust governance frameworks as they adopt AI technologies. Schlager points out that many businesses are still grappling with basic cybersecurity measures, which complicates their ability to implement effective AI governance. He stresses that organizations must assess their existing security postures and ensure that they are prepared for the rapid deployment of agentic AI, which allows non-technical users to create and manage AI workflows independently.Schlager provides concrete examples of how Aiceberg's technology is integrated into real-world applications, such as in the banking sector, where AI workflows may involve third-party interactions. He explains that Aiceberg monitors these interactions to classify and respond to potential security threats, ensuring that organizations can demonstrate compliance and safety in the event of an incident. This proactive approach to security is essential for maintaining trust and accountability in AI systems.Finally, the discussion touches on the broader implications of AI adoption, including the potential for improved customer experiences across various industries. Schlager notes that while AI can enhance service delivery, organizations must navigate the challenges of user expectations and the maturity of their AI implementations. By focusing on customer service and experience, companies can unlock significant value from their AI investments, but they must also prioritize security and governance to mitigate risks.

➡ Stay Ahead of Cyber Threats with AI-Driven Vulnerability Management with Maze:https://mazehq.com/ In this conversation, I speak with Harry about how AI is transforming vulnerability management and application security. We explore how modern approaches can move beyond endless reports and generic fixes, toward real context-aware workflows that actually empower developers and security teams. We talk about: The Real Problem in Vulnerability ManagementWhy remediation—not just prioritization—remains the toughest challenge, and how AI can help bridge the gap between vulnerabilities and the developers who need to fix them. Context, Ownership, and VelocityHow linking vulnerabilities to the right applications and teams inside their daily tools (like GitHub) reduces friction, speeds up patching, and improves security without slowing developers down. AI Agents and the Future of SecurityWhy we should think of AI agents as “extra eyes and hands,” and how they’re reshaping everything from threat detection to system design, phishing campaigns, and organizational defense models. Attackers Move FirstHow attackers are already building unified world models of their targets using AI, and why defenders need to match (or exceed) this intelligence to stay ahead. From Days to MinutesWhy the tolerance for vulnerability windows is shrinking fast, and how automation and AI are pushing us toward a future where hours—or even minutes—make the difference.

The episode opens with Bhatt framing the global stakes: from drones on the battlefield to AI-powered early warning systems, militaries worldwide are racing to integrate AI, often citing strategic necessity in volatile security environments. Mohan underscores that AI in conflict cannot be characterized in a single way, applications range from decision-support systems and logistics to disinformation campaigns and border security.The conversation explores two categories of AI-related risks:Inherent risks: design flaws, bias in datasets, adversarial attacks, and human–machine trust calibration.Applied risks: escalation through miscalculation, misuse in targeting, and AI's role as a force multiplier for nuclear and cyber threats.On governance, Mohan explains the fragmentation of current disarmament processes, where AI intersects with multiple regimes, nuclear, cyber, conventional arms, yet lacks a unified framework. She highlights ongoing debates at the UN's Group of Governmental Experts (GGE) on LAWS, where consensus has been stalled over definitions, human-machine interaction, and whether regulation should be voluntary or treaty-based.International humanitarian law (IHL) remains central, with discussions focusing on how principles like distinction, proportionality, and precaution can apply to autonomous systems. Mohan also emphasizes a “life-cycle approach” to weapon assessment, extending legal and ethical oversight from design to deployment and decommissioning.A significant portion of the conversation turns to gender and bias, an area Mohan has advanced through her research at UNIDIR. She draws attention to how gendered and racial biases encoded in AI systems can manifest in conflict, stressing the importance of diversifying participation in both technology design and disarmament diplomacy.Looking forward, Mohan cites UN Secretary-General António Guterres's call for a legally binding instrument on autonomous weapons by 2026. She argues that progress will depend on multi-stakeholder engagement, national strategies on AI, and confidence-building measures between states. The episode closes with a reflection on the future of warfare as inseparable from governance innovation—shifting from arms reduction to resilience, capacity-building, and responsible innovation.Episode ContributorsShimona Mohan is an associate researcher on Gender & Disarmament and Security & Technology at UNIDIR in Geneva, Switzerland. She was named among Women in AI Ethics' “100 Brilliant Women in AI Ethics for 2024.” Her areas of focus include the multifarious intersections of security, emerging technologies (in particular AI and cybersecurity), gender, and disarmament. Charukeshi Bhatt is a research analyst at Carnegie India, where her work focuses on the intersection of emerging technologies and international security.

ThreatLocker to Unveil Game-Changing Zero Trust Innovations at Black Hat 2025 | Visit Them at Booth #1933 | A ThreatLocker Pre-Event Coverage of Black Hat USA 2025 Las Vegas | Brand Story with John LillistonJoin ITSP Magazine's Marco Ciappelli and Sean Martin as they preview ThreatLocker's exciting Black Hat 2025 presence with Detect Product Director John Lilliston. Discover upcoming major announcements, hands-on hacking demos, and how ThreatLocker's default deny approach is revolutionizing enterprise cybersecurity through comprehensive zero trust implementation.As Black Hat USA 2025 approaches, cybersecurity professionals are gearing up for one of the industry's most anticipated events. ITSP Magazine's Marco Ciappelli and Sean Martin recently sat down with John Lilliston, ThreatLocker's Detect Product Director, to preview what promises to be an exciting showcase of zero trust innovation at booth 1933.ThreatLocker has become synonymous with the "default deny" security approach, a philosophy that fundamentally changes how organizations protect their digital assets. Unlike traditional security models that allow by default and block known threats, ThreatLocker's approach denies everything by default and allows only approved applications, network communications, and storage operations. This comprehensive strategy operates across application, network, and storage levels, creating what Lilliston describes as a "hardened system that stops adversaries in their tracks."The company's rapid growth reflects the industry's embrace of zero trust principles, moving beyond buzzword status to practical, enterprise-ready solutions. Lilliston, who joined ThreatLocker in February after evaluating their products from the enterprise side, emphasizes how the platform's learning mode and ring fencing capabilities set it apart from competitors in the application control space.At Black Hat 2025, ThreatLocker will demonstrate their defense-in-depth strategy through their Detect product line. While their primary zero trust controls rarely fail, Detect provides crucial monitoring for applications that must run in enterprise environments but may have elevated risk profiles. The system can automatically orchestrate responses to threats, such as locking down browsers exhibiting irregular behavior that might indicate data exfiltration attempts.Visitors to booth 1933 can expect hands-on demonstrations and on-demand hacking scenarios that showcase real-world applications of ThreatLocker's technology. The company is preparing major announcements that CEO Danny Houlihan will reveal during the event, promising game-changing developments for both the organization and its client base.ThreatLocker's Black Hat agenda includes a welcome reception on Tuesday, August 5th, from 7-10 PM at the Mandalay Bay Complex, and Houlihan's presentation on "Simplifying Cybersecurity" on Thursday, August 7th, from 10:15-11:05 AM at Mandalay Bay J.The convergence of practical zero trust implementation, cutting-edge threat detection, and automated response capabilities positions ThreatLocker as a key player in the evolving cybersecurity landscape, making their Black Hat presence essential viewing for security professionals seeking comprehensive protection strategies.Keywords: Black Hat 2025, zero trust security, cybersecurity conference, ThreatLocker, default deny strategy, endpoint protection, application control, threat detection, enterprise security, network security, cybersecurity solutions, security automation, malware prevention, cyber threats, information security, security platform, Black Hat USA, cybersecurity innovation, managed detection response, security operationsLearn more about ThreatLocker: https://itspm.ag/threatlocker-r974Note: This story contains promotional content.Learn more.Guests:John LillistonCybersecurity Director | Threat Detection & Response | SOC Leadership | DFIR | EDR/XDR Strategy | GCFA, GISP | https://www.linkedin.com/in/john-lilliston-4725217b/Hosts:Sean Martin, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine | Website: https://www.seanmartin.comMarco Ciappelli, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine | Website: https://www.marcociappelli.com______________________ResourcesLearn more and catch more stories from ThreatLocker: https://www.itspmagazine.com/directory/threatlockerThreatLocker® Welcome Reception | Don't gamble with your security!

Drex breaks down three critical cybersecurity developments healthcare organizations need to monitor. First, escalating geopolitical tensions suggest increased cyber attacks from Iran and allied nations targeting U.S. critical infrastructure, including healthcare systems. Second, Vanderbilt University Medical Center reports sophisticated Microsoft Teams impersonation attacks where scammers pose as supervisors to request urgent actions like software installation or payments. Finally, deepfake fraud attempts skyrocketed 1300% in 2024, with new "spoofing as a service" platforms making AI-powered voice and video scams more accessible to cybercriminals. Healthcare IT leaders should prepare defenses against these evolving threats and educate staff on verification protocols for suspicious requests.Remember, Stay a Little Paranoid X: This Week Health LinkedIn: This Week Health Donate: Alex's Lemonade Stand: Foundation for Childhood Cancer
