For decades, leadership was judged by outputs such as profit, speed, and results. But the real competitive advantage now lies beneath the surface of your P&L: Your culture, trust, and psychology driving every decision, including cybersecurity. Hacia Atherton, the author of The Billion Dollar Blind$pot, joins Business Security Weekly to discuss the invisible human costs — fear, burnout, disengagement — quietly draining performance. She will discuss the silent costs of outdated leadership and gives you a playbook to fix them for good, including: Self Leadership Psychological Success with Emotional Mastery Co-designing a Culture to Thrive Lead...

Everyone is turning to LLMs to generate code, including attackers. Thus, it's no great surprise that there are now examples of malware generated by LLMs. We discuss the implications of more malware with Rob Allen and what it means for orgs that want to protect themselves from ransomware.

Segment 1: Interview with Warwick Webb From Initial Entry to Resilience: Understanding Modern Attack Flows Modern cyberattacks don't unfold as isolated alerts--they move as coordinated attack flows that exploit gaps between tools, teams, and time. In this episode, Warwick Webb, Vice President of Managed Detection and Response at SentinelOne, breaks down how today's breaches often begin invisibly, progress undetected through siloed security stacks, and accelerate faster than human response alone can handle. He'll discuss how unified platforms, machine-speed detection powered by global threat intelligence, and expert-led response change the equation--turning fragmented signals into clear attack narratives...

This week, we get un-curmudgeoned by Mandy, spending a bunch of time talking about regulations, compliance, and even the US federal government's commitment to cybersecurity internally and with the community at large. We even dive into some Microsoft patches, hacking defunct eScooters, and a lively discussion on ADS-B spoofing! Show Notes: https://securityweekly.com/psw-911

The top social engineering attacks involve manipulating human psychology to gain access to sensitive information or systems. The most prevalent methods include various forms of phishing, pretexting, and baiting, which are often used as initial entry points for more complex attacks like business email compromise (BEC) and ransomware deployment. How do you control what users click on? Even with integrated email solutions, like Microsoft 365, you can't control what they click on. They see a convincing email, are in a rush, or are simply distracted. Next thing you know, they enter their credentials, approve the MFA prompt—and ju...

Supply chain security remains one of the biggest time sinks for appsec teams and developers, even making it onto the latest iteration of the OWASP Top 10 list. Paul Davis joins us to talk about strategies to proactively defend your environment from the different types of attacks that target supply chains and package dependencies. We also discuss how to gain some of the time back by being smarter about how to manage packages and even where the responsibility for managing the security of packages should be.

Segment 1: Interview with Thyaga Vasudevan Hybrid by Design: Zero Trust, AI, and the Future of Data Control AI is reshaping how work gets done, accelerating decision-making and introducing new ways for data to be created, accessed, and shared. As a result, organizations must evolve Zero Trust beyond an access-only model into an inline data governance approach that continuously protects sensitive information wherever it moves. Securing access alone is no longer enough in an AI-driven world. In this episode, we'll unpack why real-time visibility and control over data usage are now essential for safe...

Key emerging risks include cybersecurity (41%) and Generative AI (Gen AI) (35%), both of which present challenges in skill development and retention. The growing reliance on external providers reflects these gaps. In two years, strategic risk has fallen 10% as technological advancements have shifted auditors' attention away from strategy. So what are the top concerns? Tim Lietz, National Practice Leader Internal Audit Risk & Compliance at Jefferson Wells, joins Business Security Weekly to discuss the shifting priorities for internal audit leaders, with technology, business transformation and digitization remaining central amid rising economic uncertainty. This reflects the broader economic challenges and uncertainties...

MongoBleed and a recent OWASP CRS bypass show how parsing problems remain a source of security flaws regardless of programming language. We talk with Kalyani Pawar about how these problems rank against the Top 25 CWEs for 2025 and what it means for relying on LLMs to generate code. Show Notes: https://securityweekly.com/asw-366

Segment 1 with Beck Norris - Making vulnerability management actually work Vulnerability management is often treated as a tooling or patching problem, yet many organizations struggle to reduce real cyber risk despite heavy investment. In this episode, Beck Norris explains why effective vulnerability management starts with governance and risk context, depends on multiple interconnected security disciplines, and ultimately succeeds or fails based on accountability, metrics, and operational maturity. Drawing from the aviation industry—one of the most regulated and safety-critical environments—Beck translates lessons that apply broadly across regulated and large-scale enterprises, including healthcare, financial services, and...

The three proactive security principles of visibility, prioritization, and remediation have always been the foundation of vulnerability management teams. But these teams face continuous challenges. How do you address these challenges? Erik Nost, Senior Analyst at Forrester, joins Business Security Weekly to break down the six questions that need to be answered for each proactive security principle: who, what, when, where, why, and how. The introduction of generative AI (genAI) into proactive security promises to provide a broader and speedier ability to answer these questions, providing further opportunities for the proactive security market to grow. ...
