Microsoft has launched Project IR, an advanced AI capable of reverse-engineering malware with a remarkable 90% accuracy rate. This autonomous agent utilizes a combination of large language models and specialized cybersecurity tools to identify threats effectively, achieving a low false positive rate of just 2%. Recent tests demonstrated its capability to analyze thousands of unclassified files and accurately flag a significant majority as malicious. However, as cybersecurity technology advances, so do the tactics of cybercriminals, with a notable increase in phishing attacks targeting managed service providers (MSPs), which now account for over half of all phishing incidents.The rise of AI-powered phishing and social engineering tactics has been highlighted in a recent Acronis report, revealing that 52% of phishing attacks are aimed at MSPs. Additionally, new research indicates that AI browsers may inadvertently assist scammers, as they can overlook red flags that human users would typically catch. A survey from One Password further emphasizes the challenges organizations face with the rapid adoption of AI tools, with many lacking visibility and control over these applications, leading to potential security vulnerabilities.Gartner has issued a warning to corporate leaders, stating that they have a limited timeframe to integrate AI agents into their operations or risk falling behind competitors. Despite the urgency, Gartner also acknowledges that a significant percentage of AI projects fail, raising concerns about the pressure vendors may place on businesses to adopt these technologies hastily. Meanwhile, XAI's claims regarding its Grok 2.5 model being open-sourced have been criticized as misleading, as the licensing terms impose restrictions that contradict open-source principles.In the realm of cybersecurity solutions, companies like SonicWall and VMware are introducing new tools and technologies to enhance security and operational efficiency. SonicWall has launched a new generation of firewalls with a unique cyber warranty, while VMware is focusing on ARM architecture to meet the growing demand for energy-efficient servers. However, the podcast emphasizes the importance of cutting through vendor noise and focusing on solutions that genuinely improve business operations, rather than getting caught up in marketing hype.Three things to know today 00:00 Microsoft's Project Ire Shows AI Can Catch Malware, But Attacks on MSPs Are Rising Faster06:36 AI Urgency, Open-Washing, and Federal Adoption: Sorting Hype From Reality10:09 From Billing Fixes to Firewalls and VMware's Arm Gamble: What Really Matters for MSPs   Supported by:  https://getnerdio.com/  All our Sponsors: https://businessof.tech/sponsors/ Do you want the show on your podcast app or the written versions of the stories?

While all of you were enjoying a Firewall-free week, Bradley was undergoing Transcranial Magnetic Stimulation, a therapy designed to mitigate obsessive-compulsive disorder. "They put this thing over your head, and effectively, every two seconds, you get 30 pulses or shocks," he says. "They call them pulses because shock sounds bad. If you are a listener and you really do suffer from OCD or depression, this is a tool that I had not been aware of before that I'm very glad I tried." Plus, Bradley dissects the incentives for peace in Ukraine, explains why Democrats still haven't found a message to counter Trump, and floats a plan to make life better for baseball fans.Discussed on today's episode:How to Be a Good Intelligence AnalystThis episode was taped at P&T Knitwear at 180 Orchard Street — New York City's only free podcast recording studio.Send us an email with your thoughts on today's episode: info@firewall.media.Be sure to watch Bradley's TED Talk on Mobile Voting at https://go.ted.com/bradleytusk.Subscribe to Bradley's weekly newsletter and follow Bradley on Linkedin + Substack + YouTube.

In this episode of Reboot IT, host Dave Coriale, President of DelCor, sits down with Adam Kuhn, IT Director and DelCor alum, to discuss the evolving role of IT in associations. From foundational infrastructure to advanced cybersecurity strategies, Adam shares lessons learned from both sides of the fence—being an internal influencer and a business partner. The conversation explores how IT leaders can move beyond “keeping the lights on” to proactively shaping organizational maturity, especially in the face of overwhelming system data and increasing security demands.Summary:Cybersecurity as a Strategic InvestmentCybersecurity tools like Arctic Wolf elevate IT maturity beyond basic infrastructure.Associations must move from reactive to proactive security strategies.Cyber insurance requirements are evolving and often unclear, requiring IT guidance.IT Maturity: From Core Requirements to ElectivesAdam compares IT infrastructure to college coursework—core requirements vs. electives.Core includes cloud migration, Microsoft 365, and basic security tools.Electives like threat detection systems represent strategic growth and investment.Information Overload & the Need for SynthesisDevices generate massive amounts of data that are impossible to interpret manually.Security operations centers help synthesize logs and alerts across systems.IT teams need tools to manage and interpret this data effectively.IT's Role in Business Decision-MakingIT should be a trusted advisor, not a gatekeeper or veto power.Excluding IT from technology selection leads to costly integration surprises.IT's involvement ensures better alignment, risk mitigation, and long-term success.Building Cross-Departmental PartnershipsIT needs access to systems it doesn't own to ensure full security coverage.Business units must understand their role in cybersecurity and collaborate with IT.Partnership is essential—not optional—for organizational safety and resilience.Influencing Leadership & Budget DecisionsIT leaders must make cogent cases for investment in security and infrastructure.Budget support depends on trust and clear communication with leadership.Adam emphasizes gratitude for working in a supportive environment that values IT input.

Diese Folge des SPIEGEL-Podcasts »Firewall« ist ursprünglich am 24. Juli 2025 erschienen. Im Rahmen des aktuellen Highlight-Programms während der Sommerpause von »Acht Milliarden« veröffentlichen wir sie hier noch einmal. Andreas Scheuer steht für einen der größten Polit-Skandale der letzten Jahre: das Debakel um die PKW-Maut. Trotzdem stand er bei Wahlkampf-Spendern hoch im Kurs. Mindestens 132.000 Euro flossen 2021 in die Kampagne des damaligen Bundesverkehrsministers. Das geht aus einer geheimen Liste hervor, die dem SPIEGEL vorliegt. Viele der Geldgeber waren, ausgerechnet, im Verkehrssektor tätig. Die Unterlagen zeigen, wie deutsche Unternehmer und ihre Vertreter einen Bundesminister umgarnten. Hat sich Scheuer von den Zahlungen beeinflussen lassen? Er selbst sagt zu einzelnen Spenden nichts. Sein Anwalt wirft dem SPIEGEL eine „Skandalisierung von Sachverhalten“ vor, die »mit der Rechtsordnung und dem Parteiengesetz im völligen Einklang stehen und von der Rechtsordnung sogar gewünscht sind«. Der SPIEGEL-Podcast »Firewall« erzählt, wie Wahlkampf-Spender sich offensiv mit ihren Anliegen in Scheuers Ministerium meldeten. Und er rekonstruiert, wie Scheuer mit der PKW-Maut scheiterte, zum unbeliebtesten Minister des Landes wurde. Heute baut er sich eine zweite Karriere in der Wirtschaft auf. Und wieder unterstützen unterstützen ihn einige seiner damaligen Gönner.

At Black Hat USA 2025, Rupesh Chokshi, Senior Vice President and General Manager at Akamai Technologies, connected with ITSPmagazine's Sean Martin to discuss the dual realities shaping enterprise AI adoption—tremendous opportunity and significant risk.AI is driving a seismic transformation in business operations, with executive teams rapidly deploying proof-of-concept projects to capture competitive advantage. Yet, as Chokshi notes, many of these initiatives race ahead without fully integrating security teams into the process. While budgets for AI are expanding, funding for AI-specific security measures often lags behind, leaving organizations exposed.One of the most pressing concerns is the rise of AI bots—Akamai observes 150 billion such bots traversing networks daily. These bots scrape valuable digital content, train models on it, and, in some cases, replace direct customer interactions with summarized answers. The result? Lost marketing leads, disrupted sales funnels, and even manipulated product recommendations—all without traditional “breach” indicators.This is not just a security problem; it's a business continuity challenge. Organizations must develop strategies to block or manage scraping, including commercial agreements for content usage. Beyond this, the proliferation of conversational AI agents—whether for booking tickets, providing mortgage information, or recommending products—introduces new attack surfaces. Threat actors exploit prompt injections, jailbreaks, and code execution vulnerabilities to compromise these interfaces, risking both customer trust and brand reputation.Akamai's response includes capabilities such as Firewall for AI, providing in-line visibility and control over AI-driven sessions, and bot mitigation technologies that protect high-value content. By offering real-time threat intelligence tailored to customer environments, Akamai helps enterprises maintain agility without sacrificing protection.Chokshi's call to action is clear: every company is now an AI company, and security must be embedded from the outset. Boards should view security not as a budget line item, but as the foundation for innovation velocity, brand integrity, and long-term competitiveness.Learn more about Akamai: https://itspm.ag/akamailbwcNote: This story contains promotional content. Learn more.Guests:Rupesh Chokshi, SVP & General Manager, Application Security, Akamai | https://www.linkedin.com/in/rupeshchokshi/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 Akamai: https://www.itspmagazine.com/directory/akamaiLearn more about ITSPmagazine Brand Story Podcasts: https://www.itspmagazine.com/purchase-programsNewsletter Archive: https://www.linkedin.com/newsletters/tune-into-the-latest-podcasts-7109347022809309184/Business Newsletter Signup: https://www.itspmagazine.com/itspmagazine-business-updates-sign-upAre you interested in telling your story?https://www.itspmagazine.com/telling-your-story

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!

In a digital age where cyberattacks are common, our spiritual lives also face constant threats from false teaching. Just as we need firewalls to protect our devices, God has given us doctrinal firewalls to safeguard our faith—through biblically qualified elders, sound doctrine, and expositional preaching. In 1 John 4, we're reminded that the Spirit of God empowers truth, while the spirit of error seeks to deceive—and only by grounding ourselves in God's Word can we stand firm.

Ahead of Black Hat USA 2025, Sean Martin and Marco Ciappelli sit down once again with Rupesh Chokshi, Senior Vice President and General Manager of the Application Security Group at Akamai, for a forward-looking conversation on the state of AI security. From new threat trends to enterprise missteps, Rupesh lays out three focal points for this year's security conversation: protecting generative AI at runtime, addressing the surge in AI scraper bots, and defending the APIs that serve as the foundation for AI systems.Rupesh shares that Akamai is now detecting over 150 billion AI scraping attempts—a staggering signal of the scale and sophistication of machine-to-machine activity. These scraper bots are not only siphoning off data but also undermining digital business models by bypassing monetization channels, especially in publishing, media, and content-driven sectors.While AI introduces productivity gains and operational efficiency, it also introduces new and uncharted risks. Agentic AI, where autonomous systems operate on behalf of users or other systems, is pushing cybersecurity teams to rethink their strategies. Traditional firewalls aren't enough—because these threats don't behave like yesterday's attacks. Prompt injection, toxic output, and AI-generated hallucinations are some of the issues now surfacing in enterprise environments, with over 70% of organizations already experiencing AI-related incidents.This brings the focus to the runtime. Akamai's newly launched Firewall for AI is purpose-built to detect and mitigate risks in generative AI and LLM applications—without disrupting performance. Designed to flag issues like toxic output, remote code execution, or compliance violations, it operates with real-time visibility across inputs and outputs. It's not just about defense—it's about building trust as AI moves deeper into decision-making and workflow automation.CISOs, says Rupesh, need to shift from high-level discussions to deep, tactical understanding of where and how their organizations are deploying AI. This means not only securing AI but also working hand-in-hand with the business to establish governance, drive discovery, and embed security into the fabric of innovation.Learn more about Akamai: https://itspm.ag/akamailbwcNote: This story contains promotional content. Learn more.Guests:Rupesh Chokshi, SVP & General Manager, Application Security, Akamai | https://www.linkedin.com/in/rupeshchokshi/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 Akamai: https://www.itspmagazine.com/directory/akamaiLearn more about ITSPmagazine Brand Story Podcasts: https://www.itspmagazine.com/purchase-programsNewsletter Archive: https://www.linkedin.com/newsletters/tune-into-the-latest-podcasts-7109347022809309184/Business Newsletter Signup: https://www.itspmagazine.com/itspmagazine-business-updates-sign-upAre you interested in telling your story?https://www.itspmagazine.com/telling-your-story

It was pretty impressive. And it’s something that’s near and dear. I’ve been working and trying to roll out Google agent spaces and different AI workloads and trying to get involved and make sure that we, just getting visibility into all the different ones. And that was, it was really helpful to sort of think about it in those contexts.” 10:13 OpenAI secures $30bn cloud deal with Oracle OpenAI signed a $30 billion annual cloud computing agreement with Oracle for 4.5GW of capacity, making it one of the largest AI cloud deals to date, and nearly triple Oracle’s current $10.3 billion annual data center infrastructure revenue.

You ever discover something about your teacher that made your teenage brain short-circuit? Yeah, me too. So this week, I dove headfirst into the teacher lore rabbit hole, because nothing says professional development like finding out your music teacher once chucked a desk at a kid. Oh, and remember the DARE program? Apparently, not everyone took it as seriously as I did. We're also unpacking some jaw-dropping listener voicemails, including one about fake TikToks that nearly cost a teacher her career and another involving a very tech-savvy middle schooler... and a VPN. Buckle up. I laughed, I cringed, I screamed internally. You will too. Takeaways: A mysterious student prank reveals the dark side of digital identities. Why that one teacher still gives off “could've been in a biker gang” vibes. The accidental video that made students think Andrea had a secret hip-hop past. The story that turned one pregnancy into an emergency delivery. Why middle schoolers and unfiltered internet access are a terrifying combination. — Join our Book Club: www.patreon.com/thosewhocanread Don't Be Shy Come Say Hi: www.podcasterandrea.com Watch on YouTube: @educatorandrea A Human Content Production Learn more about your ad choices.

In this powerful bonus episode of Rootsland, we explore how artificial intelligence might become humanity's greatest ally—or its most dangerous adversary—depending on who raises it. After facing betrayal from the reggae community over his Peter Tosh investigation, our host Henry K discovers an unexpected partnership with Replit's CEO Amjad Masad, leading to new opportunities for Rootsland. Drawing parallels between Mikey Dread's 1980 anthem "Break Down the Walls" and today's digital barriers, this episode reveals how the same communities historically locked out of opportunity—the ghettos, favelas, and barrios—hold the key to AI's spiritual education. From three sailors facing a storm to the rejected stones becoming cornerstones, we journey through a narrative that connects Bob Marley's prophecies to Silicon Valley's promises.This isn't just about preserving reggae culture in the digital age—it's about ensuring AI learns from humanity's most resilient voices before it's too late. Because the question isn't whether AI will change everything, but whether we'll help shape what it becomes.Produced by Henry K in association with Voice Boxx Studios Kingston, JamaicaLegends of Reggae | Facebook

Read the full transcript here. In times of such extreme political polarization, where can we find common ground? Should we require disclosure of AI authorship? Should AI companies be required to provide fingerprinting tools that can identify when something has been generated by one of their models? Should movie theaters be required to report when movies actually start? Should members of Congress be prohibited from insider trading? Should gerrymandering be outlawed? Should there be age limits on political office? Should we provide free school meals nation-wide? What roadblocks stand in the way of people being able to vote on their phones? What's Spencer's formula for productivity? Which of the productivity factors do most people fail to take into account? What are some "doubly-rewarding" activities? Is altruism a harmful idea? What are people worst at predicting?Bradley Tusk is a venture capitalist, political strategist, philanthropist, and writer. He is the CEO and co-founder of Tusk Ventures, the world's first venture capital fund that invests solely in early stage startups in highly regulated industries, and the founder of political consulting firm Tusk Strategies.
