Interview with Dan Meacham, CISO at Legendary Entertainment
Dan Meacham joined us to share a preview of his leadership panel at InfoSec World. At this CRA event in October, Dan will be discussing The Augmented Defender - What AI Actually Changes on the Front Line with Daniel Bowden, the Global CISO at Marsh.
Dan dives into the unique world of securing data and assets when film production is largely handled by partners and contractors, working from systems you'll likely have limited access to and definitely can't install agents on. It's a fascinating conversation you should check out!

Black Hat Interview 1 - Google Cloud
Outpacing the Adversary with AI Threat Defense - Black Hat interview with John Hultquist, Chief Analyst, Google Threat Intelligence Group at Google
The cybersecurity landscape is undergoing a radical shift. AI is no longer just a productivity accelerator for developers and analysts—it has become actively weaponized by sophisticated threat actors to discover and exploit vulnerabilities at unprecedented speed. We'll discuss Google's own approach to combating today's threats and the need for security teams to transform vulnerability management with machine-speed defense.

Black Hat Interview 2 - Forcepoint
Decoding Agentic: Securing the Data Layer AI Just Set on Fire - Black Hat interview with Ronan Murphy, Chief Data Strategy Officer of Forcepoint
AI didn't ask permission — and it permanently changed what data risk looks like. Forcepoint Chief Data Strategy officer and member of the Artificial Intelligence Advisory Council in Ireland, shares insights on a clear call to action for agentic enterprises: stop locking AI down and start securing it where the risk actually lives, in the data itself. Learn why data trust is the foundation of the agentic era and how the world's leading enterprises are ending the false choice between AI innovation and data safety.

Black Hat Interview 3 - Keyfactor
From Secrets to Verified Workload Identity—at Enterprise Scale - Black Hat interview with Ellen Boehm, SVP, Strategy & AI Innovation at Keyfactor
As AI agents become autonomous participants inside enterprise environments, organizations can no longer rely on static credentials and traditional identity models to establish trust. Enterprise AI is driving a shift from possession-based access to cryptographically verified identity, as AI agents, cloud-native workloads, and automated services increasingly make decisions and interact with critical systems. In this discussion, we'll discuss why organizations need to continuously establish trust, govern machine identities and cryptography, and build a resilient foundation for securing AI across increasingly dynamic environments.

Black Hat Interview 4 - Delinea
Delinea Delivers Runtime Authorization for AI Agents, Closing Access Control Gap - Black Hat interview with Frank Vukovits, Chief Security Scientist at Delinea
As AI agents move from experiments to autonomous operators inside production databases, cloud consoles, and Kubernetes clusters, enterprises face a new problem: agents with legitimate credentials taking actions no one authorized. Frank breaks down why verifying access at connection time is no longer enough and what it takes to enforce policy on every agent action before it executes. He explains how runtime authorization closes the gap between hiding credentials and actually controlling what agents do once they're inside a session.
