Interview with Rob Sadowsky from Cohesity Global Cyber Resilience Report: Cyber Recovery Plans Weren't Designed for this Moment Cyber recovery plans weren't designed for this moment. Most were built around assumptions that made sense when they were written: incidents could be understood, dependencies mapped, recovery could follow a predictable sequence, and decision-makers would have enough information to act. In practice, major cyber incidents unravel those assumptions. AI and autonomous agents are creating new paths to compromise, while cloud and SaaS expansion increases the systems, services, and dependencies involved in recovery. Vulnerabilities are discovered and weaponized faster than ever, and AI is accelerating that cycle. As incidents unfold, scope expands, dependencies appear only when they break, and recovery plans no longer match reality. With assumptions under greater strain, confidence is beginning to erode. This year, the percentage of survey respondents reporting complete confidence in their cyber resilience strategy fell. To understand how recovery unfolds today, Cohesity commissioned Vanson Bourne to survey 3,200 IT and security decision-makers at organizations with 1,000 or more employees across 11 countries. This report examines where recovery becomes more difficult than expected, the obstacles organizations encounter, how they define and test a Minimum Viable Company (MVC), and how AI is reshaping cyber threats and cyber resilience. https://www.cohesity.com/dm/global-cyber-resilience-report/ This segment is sponsored by Cohesity. Visit https://securityweekly.com/cohesity to learn more about them! Topic: When should we use AI for writing and when should we avoid it? I've had an essay in draft form for a month now, trying to get my feelings across on why AI writing drives me so crazy. I struggled to put it into words. Fortunately, Charity Majors figured out how to put it into words and I think she nailed not just how I feel about AI, but the reasons why I feel so strongly about it. She uses a scale to help explain this, with "personal" at one end and "functional" at the other. https://charity.wtf/p/confessions-of-an-unrepentant-slop When I ask AI to create a company profile for me, 10 minutes before I meet with them, I don't need poetry - just facts. But when I read something that is supposedly someone's opinions and analysis on a topic, and it's clearly 100% AI-generated, I angrily dismiss it. I love that this writeup isn't just an "I hate slop" rant - it actually quantifies why a personal touch matters and how to gauge when it is necessary and when outsourcing the task to AI is totally fine. In both cases, Charity notes that quality matters. My most recent complaints come from cases where things are not only clearly written by AI, but where quality went out the window and they're unrecognizable as a human-readable language.

Interview with Jon Hladik - ChatMate Imagine a user asks an LLM a question about a document. An attacker then gains an interactive prompt on the user's chat session, enabling the attacker to instruct the AI assistant to take actions on behalf of the victim. That is exactly the capability researchers at Rubrik Zero Labs were able to demonstrate in a recent study designed to test the bounds of LLM security. Join Joe Hladik, Head of Rubrik Zero Labs, as he breaks down the discovery of "Remote Prompt Execution," a novel vulnerability class that enabled full takeovers of Microsoft Copilot sessions through sandbox escapes. He explores the technical journey behind the eight critical CVEs uncovered by Rubrik Zero Labs and discusses the broader implications for securing generative AI assistants within enterprise environments. This interview highlights the groundbreaking research that earned a $48,000 bounty and featured as a premier briefing at Black Hat USA.

Topic Segment - AI Notetakers and Recorders AI notetakers are built into everything now, and hardware-based AI recorders are becoming mainstream as well. Is privacy over in the workplace? Adrian, Jackie, Katie, and Tyler discuss. Questions enterprises should be asking: Are employees recording or transcribing meetings? Does this policy change if non-employees (external parties) are present? Is consent asked for/given? Is the context of the conversation taken into consideration? Is the geographic/legal/political context of the external party taken into account? Have you done your due diligence on third parties hosting/storing these recordings and transcriptions?

Interview with Jon Hladik - ChatMate Imagine a user asks an LLM a question about a document. An attacker then gains an interactive prompt on the user's chat session, enabling the attacker to instruct the AI assistant to take actions on behalf of the victim. That is exactly the capability researchers at Rubrik Zero Labs were able to demonstrate in a recent study designed to test the bounds of LLM security. Join Joe Hladik, Head of Rubrik Zero Labs, as he breaks down the discovery of "Remote Prompt Execution," a novel vulnerability class that enabled full takeovers of Microsoft Copilot sessions through sandbox escapes. He explores the technical journey behind the eight critical CVEs uncovered by Rubrik Zero Labs and discusses the broader implications for securing generative AI assistants within enterprise environments. This interview highlights the groundbreaking research that earned a $48,000 bounty and featured as a premier briefing at Black Hat USA.

Segment 1 - Interview with O'Shea Bowens What do we really know about "AI Network Protocols"? Network security is about to get popular all over again. Generative AI caused a disruptive explosion across all of tech and every company's roadmap. The move from chatbots to AI agents doubled down on that disruption. Now agents need to talk to each other? Boom: we have MCP. A2A. Universal Commerce Protocol. General purpose and specialized protocols for agent communication. What does this look like from the network perspective, though? O'Shea Bowen joins us to answer this question, and he thinks the results are interesting enough to spark a resurgence of interest in network security tooling.

His argument is a provocative one: for years, the industry has optimized around the wrong metrics. His latest venture, Root Evidence, aims to help security teams identify which risks are most likely to cause meaningful business loss, and he has the evidence - real-world breach data, cyber insurance claims, digital forensics intelligence, attack surface intelligence, and observed attacker behavior - to back it up.

Interview with Keith Hollender, CEO and Co-Founder of Arcova Why AI Security Is Becoming an Execution Problem, Not Just a Governance Problem As enterprises move from AI experimentation to adoption at scale, security leaders are under pressure to enable innovation without introducing unmanaged risk. The challenge is no longer whether organizations should pursue AI, but how they can govern it, secure it, and operationalize it in ways that stand up to real-world business and threat conditions. In this conversation, Keith Hollender discusses what Arcova is seeing across enterprise environments as organizations work to connect cybersecurity, AI governance, resilience, and broader transformation priorities. He explores where companies are getting stuck, why traditional siloed approaches are falling short, and what it takes to move from strategy decks to secure execution. Keith also shares how Arcova's practitioner-led, relationship-driven model helps organizations turn complexity into clarity by embedding with client teams, solving urgent problems hands-on, and building capabilities designed to last. The conversation also covers Arcova's continued growth, including expansion into the Middle East, and what global demand signals reveal about the next phase of cybersecurity and AI consulting.

The TL;DR - defense contractors have been required to comply with CMMC controls for years, but self-attestation means that many probably haven't been meeting the requirements. Perhaps, rather than have tons of defense contractors fail the test, they just suspended the requirement for the test itself. I think Howard Holton nails it here when he says: "100,000 defense contractors needed third-party assessments. Roughly 100 authorized assessors exist. That's 1,000 assessments each, with the deadline in November." PCI already created a model that works for a scenario like this. If you're small, you self-assess. If you're big enough, an independent auditor comes to check you out once a year. I'm sure they were probably aware of this and chose not to go down that path for some reasons. I'm not aware of those reasons. What this means: Phase II is paused Phase I self-assessments still in place (note, however, that phase II existed, because self-attestation didn't work) NIST SP 800-171 Rev 2 and DFARS 252.204-7012 compliance still required 60-day review aims to reform CMMC DoW opened an RFI for industry perspectives on what they should do CMMC characterized as a "compliance burden" and "red tape" False Claims Act and DOJ's cyber-fraud enforcement are still on the table More resources: CIO Davies' post on Twitter Administrator of the Small Business Administration, Kelly Loeffler's post A useful LinkedIn post that breaks down a lot of what this really means (and doesn't) Weekly Enterprise News Finally, in the enterprise security news, will AI eliminate more cybersecurity jobs than it creates?

Interview with Keith Hollender, CEO and Co-Founder of Arcova Why AI Security Is Becoming an Execution Problem, Not Just a Governance Problem As enterprises move from AI experimentation to adoption at scale, security leaders are under pressure to enable innovation without introducing unmanaged risk. The challenge is no longer whether organizations should pursue AI, but how they can govern it, secure it, and operationalize it in ways that stand up to real-world business and threat conditions. In this conversation, Keith Hollender discusses what Arcova is seeing across enterprise environments as organizations work to connect cybersecurity, AI governance, resilience, and broader transformation priorities. He explores where companies are getting stuck, why traditional siloed approaches are falling short, and what it takes to move from strategy decks to secure execution. Keith also shares how Arcova's practitioner-led, relationship-driven model helps organizations turn complexity into clarity by embedding with client teams, solving urgent problems hands-on, and building capabilities designed to last. The conversation also covers Arcova's continued growth, including expansion into the Middle East, and what global demand signals reveal about the next phase of cybersecurity and AI consulting.

The TL;DR - defense contractors have been required to comply with CMMC controls for years, but self-attestation means that many probably haven't been meeting the requirements. Perhaps, rather than have tons of defense contractors fail the test, they just suspended the requirement for the test itself. I think Howard Holton nails it here when he says: "100,000 defense contractors needed third-party assessments. Roughly 100 authorized assessors exist. That's 1,000 assessments each, with the deadline in November." PCI already created a model that works for a scenario like this. If you're small, you self-assess. If you're big enough, an independent auditor comes to check you out once a year. I'm sure they were probably aware of this and chose not to go down that path for some reasons. I'm not aware of those reasons.

Interview with Filip Stojkovski on the State of AI in SecOps Filip joins us to talk through the 2+ year rollercoaster that Security Operations tooling has been on since AI entered the chat. We discuss the AI SecOps market, which Filip closely tracks through his SecOps Unpacked project. We also discuss how most of the market has traditionally been focused on the "middle" of the process, which is effectively alert management. Where the conversation really gets interesting is shifting left to discuss building better quality detections. Segment Resources: Be sure to check out SecOps Unpacked - it has more than just vendor information: there are articles, frameworks, podcast episodes, research, and articles/thought leadership Topic: The Unintended Consequences of Vulnmaxxing We discuss my latest blog post where I share a theory that perhaps Project Glasswing is a clever exclusive freemium tier, where Anthropic is hoping to ensnare the world's largest producers of software into using its most expensive model to fix their code for the foreseeable future, creating a much needed new revenue stream for the AI giant with a Trillion dollar valuation.

Offensive folks have been having the most luck with AI so far, which is further eroding any advantage defenders might have had. Evan Powell joins us to share some ideas on how defenders can get some benefits from AI as well, and why open source is important with this approach. Topic For this week's topic segment, we've got two very interesting data sources. The first is Anthropic's first update on Project Glasswing, where they're absolutely tearing through codebases with ultra premium Mythos tokens, but then hitting a human-shaped bottleneck as they attempt to validate all the findings. The second is the first report from Root Evidence, the latest startup from Jeremiah Grossman and Robert Hansen (aka RSnake), which aims to help organizations filter out all the vulnerabilities that don't matter. Where these two reports meet in the middle is my concern that the use of AI to scour every last bug out of code is going to be the most Sisyphean task the cybersecurity industry has ever come up with (and we have some deep experience here). The Weekly Enterprise News Finally, in the enterprise security news, Less funding, more acquisition the AI SOC startup space is CROWDED your CEO is suffering from AI psychosis Some CISOs are done with the job, IT can have it detecting and removing dangerous secrets from dev workstations 230,000 security advisories roll up to 6 attacker behaviors The FBI's 2025 IC3 report is out When tech billionaires make predictions, they're actually sales pitches All that and more, on this episode of Enterprise Security Weekly.
