The 47-Day Certificate Mandate: Is AI the Only Way to Survive the "Quickening"? | Security Boulevard Episode 32

The AI Vulnerability Apocalypse? How Mythos Is Changing Cybersecurity Forever | Security Boulevard Podcast Episode 34

Email your questions and topics to the podcast here [securityblvdpodcast@futurumgroup.com]. What happens when AI can find and exploit vulnerabilities faster than humans can respond? In this episode of the Security Boulevard Podcast [https://youtu.be/f4WW2OZf7rI], host Tom Hollingsworth [https://www.linkedin.com/in/networkingnerd/] is joined by Drew Conry-Murray [https://www.linkedin.com/in/andrewconrymurray/] and Jack Poller [https://www.linkedin.com/in/jackpoller/] to examine the rise of the so-called “Vulnpocalypse” and what it means for security teams, developers, CISOs, and IT operations. The discussion explores how AI-powered tools like Mythos are accelerating vulnerability discovery, shrinking the gap between finding and exploiting security flaws, and forcing organizations to rethink patching, risk management, software development, and cyber defense strategies. The trio also debates whether AI will make cybersecurity worse before it makes it better, and how organizations can adapt to a future where attacks and defenses operate at machine speed.

100 AI Workers Per Human? How to Secure Agentic AI Before It Breaks | Security Boulevard Episode 33

Email your questions and topics to the podcast here [securityblvdpodcast@futurumgroup.com]. Imagine managing 100 autonomous digital workers for every human employee in your organization, now, how do you stop them from going completely rogue or violating your security compliance? In this episode of the Security Boulevard Podcast [https://youtu.be/ferTSTj-MDM], host Tom Hollingsworth [https://www.linkedin.com/in/networkingnerd/] sits down with Fernando Montenegro [https://www.linkedin.com/in/fsmontenegro/] and Alan Shimel [https://www.linkedin.com/in/alanshimel/%20] to tackle the chaotic frontier of Agentic AI and the massive cybersecurity challenges it introduces. They discuss the critical difference between AI identity and cross-system authorization, debates whether we should treat autonomous agents like "cattle or pets," and breaks down practical zero-trust isolation frameworks using real-world enterprise architectures like SPIFFE. From the traditional principal-agent problem in economics to the terrifying realities of scale and velocity, discover why human-centric security models are bound to shatter under the weight of an autonomous AI workforce and how modern security teams can prepare.

The 47-Day Certificate Mandate: Is AI the Only Way to Survive the "Quickening"? | Security Boulevard Episode 32

Email your questions and topics to the podcast here [securityblvdpodcast@futurumgroup.com]. What happens to your security team when public certificate lifetimes shrink to just 47 days? In this episode of the Security Boulevard Podcast [https://youtu.be/GI1vs43Jevs], Tom Hollingsworth [https://www.linkedin.com/in/networkingnerd/], Fernando Montenegro [https://www.linkedin.com/in/fsmontenegro/], and Mitch Ashley [https://www.linkedin.com/in/mitchellashley/] tackle the looming operational nightmare of ultra-short certificate validity and why manual management is officially hitting its breaking point. The panel explores the "Red Queen Hypothesis" in cybersecurity, moving faster just to stay still, before shifting gears to the impact of Anthropic’s Mythos on vulnerability management. Discover how Microsoft’s partnership with Anthropic is turning AI from a weapon into a tool in the Secure Development Lifecycle (SDLC), the reality of "vibe coding," and why the industry must choose between automated patching or catastrophic failure in the age of the zero-day.
