The U.S. is now at war in Iran after Donald Trump launched strikes without Congressional authorization, despite campaigning against regime change and new wars. Rep. Jim McGovern (D) Massachusetts, argues there is no justification or clearly defined mission, warns of quagmire-like consequences, rising costs, and criticizes Republicans and House leadership for blocking debate and ignoring Congress's constitutional role and the War Powers Act, citing prior votes tied to Venezuela. National security analyst Joe Cirincione says the administration's claims of an imminent threat collapsed, asserting Iran lacks missiles to reach the U.S. and is not close to a nuclear weapon; he frames the conflict as a regime-change war pushed by Israel and Saudi Arabia, worsened by Trump's exit from the 2015 nuclear deal and bad-faith negotiations. They discuss risks including wider regional escalation, oil shocks, global recession, and damaged U.S. credibility.

Financial expert Peter Grandich discusses the precarious state of the American economy, emphasizing his deeply bearish outlook on the stock market. He argues that the middle class is eroding due to unsustainable debt, while a small elite holds the vast majority of wealth. Grandich expresses skepticism toward Bitcoin and AI, viewing them as speculative bubbles, while favoring gold and silver as essential assets for capital preservation. Beyond finance, he warns of increasing social and political division in the United States, highlighting risks such as civil unrest and demographic shifts. Ultimately, he encourages a philosophy of “less is more” and a return to faith to navigate a future defined by economic decline.

In this video, we dive into a real-world Red Team vs. Blue Team scenario. We simulate a cyberattack on a Finance Application that has integrated a new LLM Chatbot. You'll see firsthand how attackers use Prompt Injection to bypass standard rules, how they move laterally through Kubernetes clusters, and how they attempt to execute Zero Day exploits. More importantly, we show you how to defend against it. Using Cisco's Hybrid Mesh Firewall, AI Defense, and Secure Workload, we demonstrate how to: 1. Detect & Block Prompt Injections: safeguarding your LLMs from manipulation. 2. Secure Kubernetes: using micro-segmentation to isolate threats in the cloud. 3. Inspect Encrypted Traffic: utilizing the Encrypted Visibility Engine (EVE) to spot malware in TLS flows without decryption.

There's an assurance that Trump won't follow through with his nuclear weapon testing comments. The US President posted on social media saying he has no choice but to restart testing, because of other countries' testing programs. It follows him denouncing Russia for testing a nuclear-powered missile, which the Kremlin denies. Centre for European Policy Analysis Security Analyst Edward Lucas says if Trump followed through, it would be hugely destabilising. LISTEN ABOVESee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

The nature of Security Operations is changing. As cloud environments grow in complexity and data volumes explode, traditional approaches to detection and response are proving insufficient. This episode features an in-depth conversation with Kyle Polley, who leads the AI security team at Perplexity, about a modern blueprint for the Security Operations Center (SOC).The discussion centers on a necessary architectural shift away from traditional SIEMs, which were not built for today's scale, toward a "data lake infrastructure built for detection and response". Kyle explains how this model provides the scalability needed to handle modern data loads and enables a more effective incident response process.A cornerstone of this new model is the use of centralized AI agents. The conversation explores how these agents can be tasked with performing in-depth alert investigations, helping to reduce analyst burnout and allowing security teams to focus on more proactive, high-impact work. This approach moves beyond simple automation to create a system where AI augments and enhances the capabilities of the human team.Guest Socials - Kyle's Linkedin Podcast Twitter - @CloudSecPod If you want to watch videos of this LIVE STREAMED episode and past episodes - Check out our other Cloud Security Social Channels:-Cloud Security Podcast- Youtube- Cloud Security Newsletter - Cloud Security BootCampIf you are interested in AI Cybersecurity, you can check out our sister podcast - AI Cybersecurity PodcastQuestions asked:(00:00) Introduction to Kyle Polley & The Future of SOCs(01:03) The Core Argument: Why You Must Build Your SOC Before Compliance(03:34) Beyond the Certificate: The Difference Between Being Compliant vs. Secure(04:20) Today's #1 AI Threat: The Challenge of Prompt Injection(06:00) The Architectural Flaw: Handling Untrusted Data in AI Systems(08:20) The "Security Data Lake": Moving Beyond the Traditional SIEM(15:00) The Future is Now: A Centralized AI Agent for Automated Investigations(20:06) Will AI Take My Job?

Those old enough to remember Ronald Reagan's ‘Star Wars' will be familiar with the idea of a space based missile defence system, but perhaps we thought it would remain pie in the sky…Not the case, according to Donald Trump.

Donald Trump says the tone and spirit of this morning's conversation with Russian's President Vladimir Putin were excellent. This comes following a two-hour call between the two leaders, with Trump now saying Ukraine and Russia will immediately start working towards a ceasefire. He's reportedly also wrapped up a call with Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskyy. Kyiv-based Foreign Policy and Security Analyst Jimmy Rushton told Mike Hosking Putin has Trump right where he wants him, and he's clearly being manipulated and worked by Putin. He says Trump and his Secretary of State Marco Rubio, are simply making things up as they go along. He says they keep talking to Putin about this 'destructive war', but he doesn't care, even about the lives of his own people. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

A security analyst says it's likely Trump's hardball foreign policy with Ukraine is part of his promise to deliver a peace deal as fast as possible. Ukraine's President says he's ready to sign a minerals deal and reach a peace deal only hours after America's decision to pause military aid. It also follows a fiery White House meeting between Volodymyr Zelenskyy and Donald Trump. A Kyiv-based security analyst Jimmy Rushton told Mike Hosking Trump's been putting a lot of pressure on Zelenskyy to sign a deal without a US security guarantee. He thinks the President's found Russia won't budge and it'll be easier to get Ukraine to sign to unfavourable terms. LISTEN ABOVE See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Tom welcomes returning guest Peter Grandich from Peter Grandich and Company for a discussion on current economic risks and market trends. Grandich expresses concern over the markets' failure to acknowledge major issues. He argues that gold markets show some recognition of these issues, while the stock market remains complacent. With experience through three financial crises, Grandich warns that this situation is more severe due to political division and lack of meaningful solutions from Congress or the Fed. He criticizes the Fed's role in exacerbating debt through money creation during the pandemic. Peter discusses societal shifts towards consuming beyond means and their impact on happiness, the stock market, and the economy. He traces these trends to the influence of television and the internet, which have convinced people that they need more money for happiness. They note that some of the happiest people have little or no wealth while some wealthy individuals are unhappy. He criticize politicians' approach to economics compared to household management, resulting in societal issues like increasing consumer debt and a culture of living beyond it's means. Grandich discusses potential risks to the markets, including political instability leading up to the U.S. election and the impact on foreign investors divesting from American securities. He emphasizes gold's importance as a store of value in the new economic structure and advocates for capital preservation due to perceived market overvaluation. Grandich encourages individuals to build a "financial ark" through self-sufficiency, preparing for potential financial hardships, and diversifying portfolios with stocks, bonds, and gold. He also mentions the junior resource market as an area of potential undervaluation for companies searching for metals and base metals.
