Adaptive Security

This episode is brought to you by Adaptive Security, the first security awareness platform built to stop AI-powered social engineering. AI is changing phishing, because persuasion now scales like code. And it's not just email anymore; attackers hit SMS, voice calls, and multi-step scams that jump channels. Adaptive runs AI-powered phishing simulations across email, SMS, and voice, including OSINT-based spearphishing and BEC-style scenarios, so employees practice what attacks look like.
