What to do if you’ve been hacked (with Glenn Wilkinson)

So you’ve been hacked… Now what?! 😬🔐 We all think it won’t happen to us — until it does. In this episode, we take a break from prevention and focus on the important steps to follow if the worst actually happens. Glenn Wilkinson, cybersecurity expert and co-founder of Agger Labs, explains what to do if you, someone you love, or your organization gets hacked. From compromised email accounts to ransomware and the high-stakes decisions that follow, Glenn shares clear advice on how to respond, recover, and stay calm under pressure. 😌📲 Plus, in Watchtower Weekly, we discuss Anthropic’s Project Glasswing and what it could mean for the future of AI and software vulnerabilities.

Are you oversharing with AI? Author Jamie Bartlett has thoughts.

Sharing information with AI has quickly become second nature. But what are you really giving away? 🤖🗣️ Think twice about your next prompt, as we dig into what it really means to use AI tools safely. Jamie Bartlett, author of How to Talk to AI (And How Not To), joins the show to unpack an important skill: using AI without giving away more than you intend. Whether you’re experimenting on your own or managing AI usage across an entire organization, this conversation will help you stay in control. Jamie’s advice covers everything from misplaced trust and oversharing to the subtle ways prompts shape responses. Plus, in Watchtower Weekly and Crash Course, we connect the dots between AI and security, unpacking 1Password’s Unified Access announcement and credential brokering — and how they can help teams securely manage access for AI agents. And finally, who will detect this week’s stolen identity in Identity Theft? 🕵️‍♂️ 🏰  Watchtower Weekly Identity Security for Humans and Their AI Agents  * Introducing 1Password® Unified Access [https://1password.com/blog/introducing-1password-unified-access] 👨‍🏫  Crash Course What is credential brokering? * The Credential Broker Layer For Safe AI Browser Agents [https://therelaymag.com/the-credential-broker-layer-for-safe-ai-browser-agents] 🎙  Guest Interview – Jamie Bartlett * 📚 How to Talk to AI (And How Not To) [https://www.amazon.com/How-Talk-AI-Not/dp/0753561980] * 📲 Follow Jamie Bartlett on Instagram [https://www.instagram.com/jamiejbartlett] * 📲 Follow @JamieJBartlett [https://x.com/JamieJBartlett] on X 🗣 #Ask1Password – Ask Us Anything!  Please send us an email at: podcast@1password.com Ask us a question in the 1Password Community forum [https://www.1password.community/category/discuss] 📲  Follow Us… * Watch on YouTube [https://www.youtube.com/@randombutmemorable] * Find us on Apple Podcasts [https://podcasts.apple.com/gb/podcast/random-but-memorable/id1435486599] * Find us on Spotify [https://open.spotify.com/show/5Sa3dy0xDvMT0h3O5MGMOr] * Visit 1Password.com [http://1password.com] * Check out our blog [https://blog.1password.com/] * Find us on X @1Password [https://twitter.com/1Password] * Find us on Facebook [https://www.facebook.com/1Password/] or Instagram [https://www.instagram.com/1password/] * Send us an email: podcast@1password.com [podcast@1password.com] ❤️  Review Us...

What it takes to protect and break into data centers with Deviant Ollam

Supply chains, server crashes, and building break-ins. Our latest episode is a reminder that cybersecurity doesn’t stop at the screen. 🏢🔐 We sit down with Deviant Ollam, physical security expert and pentester, as he lifts the lid on the physical “IRL” side of security. From bypassing door locks and badge systems to testing data center defenses, Deviant shares what attackers are looking for, and why the physical layer can be the weakest link. 🚪🔑 But that’s not all! In Watchtower Weekly, we unpack how supply chain attacks are evolving into a self-reinforcing cybercrime economy — where one breach fuels the next, creating an endless loop of access, data, and profit for attackers. ⭕️💻 🏰  Watchtower Weekly Supply chain attacks are evolving into a self-reinforcing cybercrime economy ⭕️💻  * Supply chain attacks now fuel a 'self-reinforcing' cybercrime economy [https://www.theregister.com/2026/02/12/supply_chain_attacks/] * Modern supply-chain attacks and their real-world impact [https://www.csoonline.com/article/4081492/modern-supply-chain-attacks-and-their-real-world-impact.html] 👨‍🏫  Crash Course DDoS Attacks * What Is A DDOS Attack?
