Nesse episódio a conversa foi direta e sem anestesia. Falamos sobre como empresas e profissionais de AppSec realmente evoluíram nos últimos anos, o que mudou de verdade e o que é só discurso bonito em slide corporativo. Spoiler: muita coisa avançou, mas muita gente ainda está brigando com problemas que já deveriam estar resolvidos há uma década. Também discutimos o descompasso clássico do mercado. Enquanto algumas organizações já deveriam estar olhando para o próximo nível de maturidade, automação real, decisões baseadas em risco e integração profunda com engenharia, outras ainda estão “começando AppSec” do zero. E aí vem a pergunta incômoda: isso é falta de tempo, de prioridade, de competência ou de coragem? Um episódio para quem quer entender onde estamos, onde deveríamos estar e por que maturidade em AppSec não é checklist, não é ferramenta e definitivamente não é cargo no LinkedIn.Become a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/devsecops-podcast--4179006/support.Apoio: Nova8, Snyk, Conviso, Gold Security, Digitalwolk e PurpleBird Security.

In 2026, digital privacy and security reflect a global power struggle among governments, corporations, and infrastructure providers. Encryption, once seen as absolute, is now conditional as regulators and companies find ways around it. Reports that Meta can bypass WhatsApp's end-to-end encryption and Ireland's new lawful interception rules illustrate a growing tolerance for backdoors, risking weaker international standards. Meanwhile, data collection grows deeper: TikTok reportedly tracks GPS, AI-interaction metadata, and cross‑platform behavior, leaving frameworks like OWASP as the final defense against mass exploitation.Cyber risk is shifting from isolated vulnerabilities to structural flaws. The OWASP Top 10 for 2025–26 shows that old problems—access control failures, misconfigurations, weak cryptography, and insecure design—remain endemic. Supply-chain insecurity, epitomized by the “PackageGate” (Shai‑Hulud) flaw in JavaScript ecosystems, demonstrates that inconsistent patching and poor governance expose developers system‑wide. Physical systems are no safer: at Pwn2Own Automotive 2026, researchers proved that electric vehicle chargers and infotainment systems can be hacked en masse, making charging a car risky in the same way as connecting to public Wi‑Fi. The lack of hardware‑rooted trust and sandboxing standards leaves even critical infrastructure vulnerable.Corporate and national sovereignty concerns are converging around what some call “digital liberation.” The alleged 1.4‑terabyte Nike breach by the “World Leaks” ransomware group shows how centralization magnifies damage—large, unified data stores become single points of catastrophic failure. In response, the EU's proposed Cloud and AI Development Act aims to build technological independence by funding open, auditable, and locally governed systems. Procurement rules are turning into tools of geopolitical self‑protection. For individuals, reliance on cloud continuity carries personal risks: in one case, a University of Cologne professor lost years of AI‑assisted research after a privacy setting change deleted key files, revealing that even privacy mechanisms can erase digital memory without backup.At the technological frontier, risk extends beyond IT. Ethics, aerospace engineering, and sustainability intersect in new fault lines. Anthropic's “constitutional AI” reframes alignment as a psychological concept, incorporating principles of self‑understanding and empathy—but critics warn this blurs science and philosophy. NASA's decision to modify, rather than redesign, the Orion capsule's heat shield for Artemis II—despite earlier erosion on Artemis I—has raised fears of “normalization of deviance,” where deadlines outweigh risk discipline. Beyond Earth, environmental data show nearly half of the world's largest cities already face severe water stress, exposing the intertwined fragility of digital, physical, and ecological systems.Across these issues, a shared theme emerges: sustainable security now depends not just on technical patches but on redefining how society manages data permanence, institutional transparency, and the planetary limits of infrastructure. The boundary between online safety, physical resilience, and environmental stability is dissolving—revealing that long‑term survival may rest less on innovation itself and more on rebuilding trust across the systems that sustain it.

Send us a textIn this captivating and wide-ranging conversation, Joey Pinz welcomes cybersecurity executive, author, and Brazilian jiu-jitsu enthusiast Caroline Wong. What begins with jiu-jitsu quickly expands into a profound dialogue about humility, body awareness, emotional regulation, and the unexpected personal growth that comes from combat sports—especially as an adult beginner.Caroline opens up about her upcoming book on AI and cybersecurity, explaining how AI isn't just another shift—it's redefining the entire security landscape. She outlines how to evaluate real AI solutions, why transparency matters, and how LLMs make modern social engineering nearly indistinguishable from authentic communication.She also reflects on tech's wobbly job market, why global talent has reshaped the industry, and which cybersecurity markets AI will completely replace in the years ahead. The conversation deepens as Caroline shares her journey through sobriety, the discipline instilled by her Chinese immigrant parents, the challenges of raising resilient kids in a privileged world, and why joy, peace, and positive impact—not titles—define success.

In this episode, Corey LeBleu, a veteran penetration tester, shares a raw and intense story from his early days in offensive security. Corey walks through a social engineering engagement that took a sharp turn, from being closely watched by a security guard to receiving the call that changed everything. What followed was a confrontation with authority, handcuffs, and a moment that forced him to confront the legal and emotional consequences of impersonation.Through honest storytelling, Corey reflects on the pressure of physical security testing, the thin line between authorization and trouble, and the lessons he carried forward in his career. This episode serves as a cautionary tale about understanding boundaries, respecting authority, and the unseen risks behind revealing what's hidden.00:00 Introduction to Corey LeBleu and His Journey03:34 Corey's Early Career and Learning Path06:34 The Role of Mentorship in Pen Testing09:19 Experiences in Social Engineering and Physical Pen Testing12:22 The Handcuff Incident: A Lesson in Risk15:12 Transitioning to Web Application Pen Testing18:01 The Evolution of Pen Testing Practices20:48 The Impact of AI on Pen Testing23:42 The Future of Pen Testing and Learning for Beginners26:28 Navigating Active Directory and Pen Testing Tools27:35 Essential Training for Web App Pen Testing30:34 Advice for Aspiring Pen Testers32:30 Exploring AI and Learning Resources37:05 Personal Interests and Hobbies39:17 Living in Austin and Local Music SceneSYMLINKS[LinkedIn] – https://www.linkedin.com/in/coreylebleu/Primary platform Corey recommends for connecting with him professionally.[Relic Security] – https://www.relixsecurity.com/Cybersecurity consulting firm founded and run by Corey LeBleu, focused primarily on web application penetration testing and offensive security work.[PortSwigger Academy] – https://portswigger.net/web-securityA free and advanced online training platform for web application security, created by the makers of Burp Suite.

Ken Johnson (cktricky on social media) and Seth Law are happy to announce a special episode of Absolute AppSec with Avi Douglen (sec_tigger on X), long-time OWASP Global Board of Directors member, founder and CEO of Bounce Security and co-author of the Threat Modeling Manifesto. The conversation ranges from Application Privacy related to Application Security, to participating in meetups and conferences, and finally OWASP as an Avi's experience as a board member.

In an era dominated by AI-powered security tools and cloud-native architectures, are traditional Web Application Firewalls still relevant? Join us as we speak with Felipe Zipitria, co-leader of the OWASP Core Rule Set (CRS) project. Felipe has been at the forefront of open-source security, leading the development of one of the world's most widely deployed WAF rule sets, trusted by organizations globally to protect their web applications. Felipe explains why WAFs remain a critical layer in modern defense-in-depth strategies. We'll explore what makes OWASP CRS the go-to choice for security teams, dive into the project's current innovations, and discuss how traditional rule-based security is evolving to work alongside — not against — AI. Segment Resources: github.com/coreruleset/coreruleset coreruleset.org The future of CycloneDX is defined by modularity, API-first design, and deeper contextual insight, enabling transparency that is not just comprehensive, but actionable. At its heart is the Transparency Exchange API, which delivers a normalized, format-agnostic model for sharing SBOMs, attestations, risks, and more across the software supply chain. As genAI transforms every sector of modern business, the security community faces a question: how do we protect systems we can't fully see or understand? In this fireside chat, Aruneesh Salhotra, Project Lead for OWASP AIBOM and Co-Lead of OWASP AI Exchange, discusses two groundbreaking initiatives that are reshaping how organizations approach AI security and supply chain transparency. OWASP AI Exchange has emerged as the go-to single resource for AI security and privacy, providing over 200 pages of practical advice on protecting AI and data-centric systems from threats. Through its official liaison partnership with CEN/CENELEC, the project has contributed 70 pages to ISO/IEC 27090 and 40 pages to the EU AI Act security standard OWASP, achieving OWASP Flagship project status in March 2025. Meanwhile, the OWASP AIBOM Project is establishing a comprehensive framework to provide transparency into how AI models are built, trained, and deployed, extending OWASP's mission of making security visible to the rapidly evolving AI ecosystem. This conversation explores how these complementary initiatives are addressing real-world challenges—from prompt injection and data poisoning to model provenance and supply chain risks—while actively shaping international standards and regulatory frameworks. We'll discuss concrete achievements, lessons learned from global collaboration, and the ambitious roadmap ahead as these projects continue to mature and expand their impact across the AI security landscape.

Episode 302 of Absolute AppSec has hosts Ken Johnson and Seth Law speculating on the upcoming Global AppSec DC conference, predicting the announcement of the OWASP Top Ten 2025 edition, with Brian Glass scheduled to discuss it on the podcast. The conversation shifts to a technical discussion of OpenAI's new browser, Atlas, which is built on Chromium and includes AI capabilities. The hosts noted concern over the discovered prompt instructions for Atlas, which direct the ChatGPT agent to use browser history and available APIs to find data from the user's logged-in sites to answer ambiguous queries or fulfill requests. This functionality raises significant security concerns, as the agent's ability to comb the cache and logged-in sites could be exploited, effectively creating a "honeypot for cross-site scripting" with malicious potential like unauthorized money transfers. The hosts discussed the lack of talk submissions on Mobile Context Protocol (MCP) security at the conference, despite its growing relevance in a world of AI agents and tooling. Finally, they highlighted a new tool called SlopGuard, developed to prevent the risk of AI hallucinating non-existent, potentially malicious packages (which occurs 5-21% of the time) and attempting to install them from registries like NPM.

Rick Doten, cybersecurity startup advisor and AI researcher, joins the show to unpack how AI-assisted development is reshaping software—and what it means for security. From startups rushing to ship faster code to the unseen risks of “vibe coding,” Rick explains how engineering teams can balance innovation with secure, resilient design.If your dev team is using AI tools to boost velocity, this conversation might change how you think about your SDLC, code review, and even your threat model.Key Takeaways• AI-assisted coding speeds up output but can multiply security risks if context isn't baked in.• Startups often trade speed for security early on—and that can be expensive to unwind later.• Traditional fundamentals like OWASP and BSIMM still apply, even as architectures evolve with agents and MCP.• AI creates a widening gap between companies that can secure their models and those that can't.• “Vibe coding”—non-devs using AI to build—introduces a new wave of shadow code leaders must prepare for.Timestamped Highlights[02:09] The real range of how startups are using AI-assisted tools—and why security is often an afterthought.[05:12] Why AI-generated code is not just another form of third-party code.[09:40] The hidden risk: code volume grows faster than your ability to secure it.[15:51] How AI is widening the gap between resource-rich enterprises and everyone else.[18:25] The new fragility of systems—where architecture and resilience start to break.[22:07] Rethinking SDLC: integrating AI tools without losing security fundamentals.[25:29] “Vibe coding” and what happens when non-engineers start shipping code.Memorable Insight“AI isn't lazy like humans—it doesn't just fix one thing. It rewrites everything. That's why every line has to be re-scrutinized.”Pro TipsIf your startup doesn't have a dedicated security function yet, start with the basics: integrate OWASP checks into your CI/CD, use non-human accounts correctly, and automate code review gates early. Don't wait until production to harden your systems.Call to ActionIf this episode sparked ideas for your dev or security team, share it with someone who's experimenting with AI-assisted tools. Follow The Tech Trek for more conversations at the intersection of engineering, AI, and leadership.

Recebemos a brilhante Michelle Mesquita para provar, na prática, que AppSec não é sinônimo de “rodar um scanner e rezar”. Conversamos sobre como construir segurança desde o design, passando por threat modeling, SAST/DAST/SCA e políticas reprodutíveis — tudo sem cair na armadilha do PDF de vulnerabilidades que ninguém lê. Sim, nós também rimos (de nervoso) quando lembramos daqueles relatórios com 500 findings.Falamos ainda sobre carreira: onde começam as pessoas de AppSec, por que comunicação e influência importam tanto quanto CWE e CVE, e como programas como Security Champions destravam escala e cultura. Discutimos comunidades e referências (OWASP e afins), automação no pipeline, gamificação e até como usar IA para reduzir ruído e acelerar feedback útil para devs.E, claro, mantivemos o nosso jeitinho: didático, direto e levemente irônico. Se você quer sair do “firefighting” e colocar segurança como requisito funcional do seu produto, este episódio é para você.
