We're on the road to RSAC 2025 — or maybe on a quantum-powered highway — and this time, Sean and I had the pleasure of chatting with someone who's not just riding the future wave, but actually building it.Marc Manzano, General Manager of the Cybersecurity Group at SandboxAQ, joined us for this Brand Story conversation ahead of the big conference in San Francisco. For those who haven't heard of SandboxAQ yet, here's a quick headline: they're a spin-out from Google, operating at the intersection of AI and quantum technologies. Yes — that intersection.But let's keep our feet on the ground for a second, because this story isn't just about tech that sounds cool. It's about solving the very real, very painful problems that security teams face every day.Marc laid out their mission clearly: Active Guard, their flagship platform, is built to simplify and modernize two massive pain points in enterprise security — cryptographic asset management and non-human identity management. Think: rotating certificates without manual effort. Managing secrets and keys across cloud-native infrastructure. Automating compliance reporting for quantum-readiness. No fluff — just value, right out of the box.And it's not just about plugging a new tool into your already overloaded stack. What impressed us is how SandboxAQ sees themselves as the unifying layer — enhancing interoperability across existing systems, extracting more intelligence from the tools you already use, and giving teams a unified view through a single pane of glass.And yes, we also touched on AI SecOps — because as AI becomes a standard part of infrastructure, so must security for it. Active Guard is already poised to give security teams visibility and control over this evolving layer.Want to see it in action? Booth 6578, North Expo Hall. Swag will be there. Demos will be live. Conversations will be real.We'll be there too — recording a deeper Brand Story episode On Location during the event.Until then, enjoy this preview — and get ready to meet the future of cybersecurity.⸻Keywords:sandboxaq, active guard, rsa conference 2025, quantum cybersecurity, ai secops, cryptographic asset management, non-human identity, cybersecurity automation, security compliance, rsa 2025, cybersecurity innovation, certificate lifecycle management, secrets management, security operations, quantum readiness, rsa sandbox, cybersecurity saas, devsecops, interoperability, digital transformation______________________Guest: Marc Manzano,, General Manager of the Cybersecurity Group at SandboxAQMarc Manzano on LinkedIn

At this year's RSAC Conference, the team from ThreatLocker isn't just bringing tech—they're bringing a challenge. Rob Allen, Chief Product Officer at ThreatLocker, joins Sean Martin and Marco Ciappelli for a lively pre-conference episode that previews what attendees can expect at booth #854 in the South Expo Hall.From rubber ducky hacks to reframing how we think about Zero Trust, the conversation highlights the ways ThreatLocker moves beyond the industry's typical focus on reactive detection. Allen shares how most cybersecurity approaches still default to allowing access unless a threat is known, and why that mindset continues to leave organizations vulnerable. Instead, ThreatLocker's philosophy is to “deny by default and permit by exception”—a strategy that, when managed effectively, provides maximum protection without slowing down business operations.ThreatLocker's presence at the conference will feature live demos, short presentations, and hands-on challenges—including their popular Ducky Challenge, where participants test whether their endpoint defenses can prevent a rogue USB (disguised as a keyboard) from stealing their data. If your system passes, you win the rubber ducky. If it doesn't? They (temporarily) get your data. It's a simple but powerful reminder that what you think is secure might not be.The booth won't just be about tech. The team is focused on conversations—reconnecting with customers, engaging new audiences, and exploring how the community is responding to a threat landscape that's growing more sophisticated by the day. Allen emphasizes the importance of in-person dialogue, not only to share what ThreatLocker is building but to learn how security leaders are adapting and where gaps still exist.And yes, there will be merch—high-quality socks, t-shirts, and even a few surprise giveaways dropped at hotel doors (if you resist the temptation to open the envelope before visiting the booth).For those looking to rethink endpoint protection or better understand how proactive controls can complement detection-based tools, this episode is your preview into a very different kind of cybersecurity conversation—one that starts with a challenge and ends with community.Learn more about ThreatLocker: https://itspm.ag/threatlocker-r974Guest: Rob Allen, Chief Product Officer, ThreatLocker | https://www.linkedin.com/in/threatlockerrob/ResourcesLearn more and catch more stories from ThreatLocker: https://www.itspmagazine.com/directory/threatlockerLearn more and catch more stories from RSA Conference 2025 coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/rsa-conference-usa-2025-rsac-san-francisco-usa-cybersecurity-event-infosec-conference-coverage______________________Keywords: rsac conference, cybersecurity, endpoint, zero trust, rubber ducky, threat detection, data exfiltration, security strategy, deny by default, permit by exception, proactive security, security demos, usb attack, cyber resilience, network control, security mindset, rsac 2025, event coverage, on location, conference____________________________Catch all of our event coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/technology-and-cybersecurity-conference-coverageTo see and hear more Redefining CyberSecurity content on ITSPmagazine, visit: https://www.itspmagazine.com/redefining-cybersecurity-podcastTo see and hear more Redefining Society stories on ITSPmagazine, visit:https://www.itspmagazine.com/redefining-society-podcastWant to tell your Brand Story Briefing as part of our event coverage?

The RSA Conference has long served as a meeting point for innovation and collaboration in cybersecurity—and in this pre-RSAC episode, ITSPmagazine co-founders Marco Ciappelli and Sean Martin welcome Akamai's Rupesh Chokshi to the conversation. With RSAC 2025 on the horizon, they discuss Akamai's presence at the event and dig into the challenges and opportunities surrounding AI, threat intelligence, and enterprise security.Chokshi, who leads Akamai's Application Security business, describes a landscape marked by explosive growth in web and API attacks—and a parallel shift as enterprises embrace generative AI. The double-edged nature of AI is central to the discussion: while it offers breakthrough productivity and automation, it also creates new vulnerabilities. Akamai's dual focus, says Chokshi, is both using AI to strengthen defenses and securing AI-powered applications themselves.The conversation touches on the scale and sophistication of modern threats, including an eye-opening stat: Akamai is now tracking over 500 million large language model (LLM)-driven scraping requests per day. As these threats extend from e-commerce to healthcare and beyond, Chokshi emphasizes the need for layered defense strategies and real-time adaptability.Ciappelli brings a sociological lens to the AI discussion, noting the hype-to-reality shift the industry is experiencing. “We're no longer asking if AI will change the game,” he suggests. “We're asking how to implement it responsibly—and how to protect it.”At RSAC 2025, Akamai will showcase a range of innovations, including updates to its Guardicore platform and new App & API Protection Hybrid solutions. Their booth (6245) will feature interactive demos, theater sessions, and one-on-one briefings.

ST. PETERSBURG, FL - April 2025 - As the cloud communications sector embraces artificial intelligence (AI), BroadSource is stepping forward with a practical message for resellers: You can profit from AI — if you first help your customers solve data privacy challenges. Speaking with Technology Reseller News at the Cloud Communications Alliance's Cloud Connections 2025 event, Bill Placke, President of Americas for BroadSource, outlined how the company's SecureCall platform helps overcome a critical barrier to AI adoption. “Legal and compliance concerns around collecting personal data are slowing AI deployment,” said Placke. “Our SecureCall solution removes sensitive personal information like credit card or Social Security numbers at the time of collection — enabling safe and compliant AI use.” BroadSource's SecureCall product, which earned Cisco's Top 3 Global Innovation Award, enables secure data input during phone-based customer interactions. Customers input card details or other personal information directly, while the merchant remains on the call without hearing sensitive tones. Data is transmitted securely for processing, bypassing the merchant's internal systems and eliminating storage liability. With new PCI DSS 4.0 standards taking effect and global regulations such as GDPR and CCPA evolving, businesses face growing risks for non-compliance. Placke noted that SecureCall removes this burden from the enterprise. “Companies can rely on BroadSource's own PCI certification for compliance,” he said. “That means fewer headaches for IT and finance leaders — and real value for the reseller who delivers the solution.” BroadSource is expanding SecureCall's capabilities under the SecurePII brand to address broader categories of personal data. The goal is to create a foundation of data minimization, enabling enterprises to leverage AI and LLMs (large language models) without running afoul of data protection laws. Placke likens the opportunity to the 1840s Gold Rush: “AI is the gold. BroadSource is the pickaxe and blue jeans — the tools every prospector needs to get started.” For resellers navigating the fast-moving AI landscape, Placke advises aligning with customer priorities. “Cybersecurity is the top concern for IT leaders,” he said. “Look at breach points like passwords and explore solutions that offer more secure alternatives. When you bring customers practical AI tools with compliance built in, you're not just selling a service — you're building trust.” BroadSource also offers EMU CAPP, a behavioral analytics product that uses AI to monitor user behavior on BroadWorks platforms and detect anomalies, helping prevent toll fraud. “Resellers should lean in,” Placke concluded. “There's a real opportunity to lead by helping your customers adopt AI safely.” For more information, visit broadsource.com or secure-pii.com.

This episode features an interview with Luke Arno, CRO at Transcend, a privacy platform that empowers brands to enhance regulatory stances and improve customer relationships through data transparency, consent, and control.Luke dives into the different marketing strategies needed when you are prioritizing data privacy and aiming to only engage with prospects who opt in. He also discusses making the sales function an advisor and consultant to potential customers. Key Takeaways:One size fits all messaging is not successful and does more damage than good. It needs to go. Marketing while prioritizing data privacy is a different ball game and requires a series of calculated investments based on the target market. Empowering your sales leaders as thought leaders, and asking them to act as advisors, makes them very valuable at events. Quote: “ How do we most effectively deliver thought leadership or ask the right questions from our customers about the problems they're solving? And we invest deeply in enabling our sales force  to be subject matter experts, and then therefore we rely on them to help scale, to meet our customers and open up the conversation in a trusted environment. Hence the name of the segment, the trust tree. But that whole process requires sales rep to put their sales position down and, effectively, ship the paradigm for how they think about engaging customers as more of a consultant or an advisor.  So, we try and delight our customers with a sales free experience, but we do rely deeply on the employees we hire at every function to effectively manage the conversation as a trusted advisor.”Episode Timestamps: *(07:47) The Trust Tree: Thoughts on marketing strategy from a CRO  *(21:52) The Playbook: The psychology of prospecting*(37:03) The Dust Up: Show up prepared to articulate your position*(40:45) Quick Hits: Luke's quick hitsSponsor:Pipeline Visionaries is brought to you by Qualified.com.

BONUS: AI and Cybersecurity - An Introduction to The Hidden Threats in Our Connected World with Dr. Eric Cole In this BONUS episode, we explore the evolving landscape of cybersecurity in the age of artificial intelligence. Dr. Eric Cole, a renowned cybersecurity expert and author of Cyber Crisis: Protecting Your Business from Real Threats in the Virtual World, shares critical insights about how AI is transforming security strategies. From the privacy concerns of our always-connected devices to practical tips for protecting your business and personal information, this conversation offers essential knowledge for navigating our increasingly digital world. The Double-Edged Sword of AI in Cybersecurity "We are giving away our IP, our data, and our privacy. The data set is what gives value to AI." The rise of artificial intelligence presents both opportunities and serious risks in the cybersecurity landscape. Dr. Cole emphasizes that while many focus solely on AI's benefits, we often overlook the fact that we're surrendering vast amounts of our sensitive information, intellectual property, and private data to AI providers. This data becomes the foundation of AI's value and capabilities, creating a significant privacy concern that many organizations fail to properly address. As we embrace these new technologies, we must carefully consider what information we're willing to share and what safeguards should be in place. Modern Attack Vectors: The Human Element "Attacks today are mostly social engineering. We end up having to retrain people to not trust their email." Today's cybersecurity threats have evolved beyond traditional technical exploits to focus primarily on social engineering—manipulating people into compromising their own security. Dr. Cole explains that modern attackers increasingly target the human element, requiring organizations to fundamentally retrain employees to approach communications with healthy skepticism. Particularly concerning are mobile threats, as our phones constantly record audio and other personal data. Dr. Cole warns that "free" apps often come with a hidden price: your privacy and security. Understanding these attack vectors is essential for developing effective defense strategies in both personal and professional contexts. Cybersecurity as a Business Enabler "Security is not a barrier, not an obstacle. Cybersecurity is a business enabler." Dr. Cole challenges the common perception that security measures primarily restrict functionality and impede business operations. Instead, he reframes cybersecurity as a critical business enabler that should be integrated into strategic decision-making. Organizations need to make deliberate decisions about the tradeoffs between security and functionality, understanding that proper security measures protect business continuity and reputation. Dr. Cole particularly warns about supply chain attacks, which have become increasingly prevalent, and emphasizes that awareness is the foundation of any effective protection strategy. He recommends centralizing data for easier security management and advises that client devices should minimize storing sensitive data. Mobile Phones: The Ultimate Tracking Device "You don't go anywhere without your cell phone. Your cell phone is never more than a foot from you it's with you wherever you go... which means if somebody wants to track and monitor you they can." We often worry about theoretical tracking technologies while overlooking the sophisticated tracking device we voluntarily carry everywhere—our mobile phones. Dr. Cole points out the irony that people who would never accept being "chipped" for tracking purposes willingly keep their phones within arm's reach at all times. These devices record our locations, conversations, messages, and activities, creating a comprehensive digital trail of our lives. With access to someone's phone, anyone can trace their movements for months and access an alarming amount of personal information. This risk is compounded when we back up this data to cloud services, effectively giving third parties access to our most sensitive information. Understanding these vulnerabilities is the first step toward more mindful mobile security practices. Business Opportunities in the Security Space "We have too much information, too much data. How can we use that data effectively?" The cybersecurity landscape presents significant business opportunities, particularly in making sense of the overwhelming amount of security data organizations collect. Dr. Cole identifies data correlation and effective data utilization as key investment areas. Modern security systems generate vast quantities of logs and alerts, but transforming this raw information into actionable intelligence remains a challenge. Companies that can develop solutions to effectively analyze, correlate, and extract meaningful insights from security data will find substantial opportunities in the market, helping organizations strengthen their security posture while managing the complexity of modern threats. Essential Training for Security-Conscious Developers "Go for secure coding courses. This helps us understand how software can be exploited." For software developers looking to build more secure applications, Dr. Cole recommends focusing on penetration testing skills and secure coding practices. Understanding how software can be exploited from an attacker's perspective provides invaluable insights for designing more robust systems. By learning the methodologies and techniques used by malicious actors, developers can anticipate potential vulnerabilities and incorporate appropriate safeguards from the beginning of the development process. This proactive approach to security helps create applications that are inherently more resistant to attacks rather than requiring extensive security patches and updates after deployment. About Dr. Eric Cole Dr. Eric Cole is the author of "Cyber Crisis, Protecting Your Business from Real Threats in the Virtual World." He is a renowned cybersecurity expert with over 20 years of experience helping organizations identify vulnerabilities and build robust defense solutions against advanced threats. He has trained over 65,000 professionals worldwide through his best-selling cybersecurity courses and is dedicated to making cyberspace a safe place for all.
