As security leaders, we are continuously selling, maybe not as traditional sales folks, but as selling security across the organization. Whether you’re closing client deals, leading a team, running a business, or simply wanting your voice to be heard by other executives or the board, we are selling. How can influence help?
Dan Rochon, Author of Teach to Sell, joins Business Security Weekly to discuss psychology of influence, personal transformation, and how to build trust that converts. Dan will cover the four pillars from his book:

The Agentic SOC: Autonomous AI Analysts at Machine Speed SOC teams are overwhelmed with the sheer number of alerts and have historically been reactive. Edward will discuss how Dropzone’s Agentic SOC deploys autonomous AI agents that investigate every alert, respond to emerging threats, and proactively hunt attackers - without a human bottleneck. He’ll explain how agent collaboration, deep recursive investigations, and self-agency expand SOC capacity by 10x without additional headcount.

Post-quantum cryptography (PQC) is quickly shifting from theory to inevitability. In this segment, Daniel dos Santos, VP of Research at Forescout, explains why PQC isn’t the most immediate threat today—but still demands early attention as standards solidify and timelines accelerate.
The discussion highlights overlooked risks beyond encrypted traffic, including digital signatures, firmware integrity, and blockchain systems. Daniel also emphasizes the real challenge: migration. While client-side adoption is already underway, organizations face major hurdles identifying and upgrading servers, legacy systems, and unmanaged assets like IoT and OT.
The bottom line: PQC migration is unavoidable. Starting early—especially with crypto inventory and planning—will make the transition far less painful.
As social engineering expands past just email to include text messages, chat apps, social platforms, and live video calls, traditional point solutions are struggling to keep up. In this segment, Bobby Ford explains how AI-powered impersonation and deepfake-enabled campaigns are exposing critical gaps in legacy defenses, and why organizations must evolve toward a unified social engineering defense platform that connects Digital Risk Management and Human Risk Management. He’ll outline what modern security programs need: real-time cross-channel visibility, behavior-driven detection, and strategies designed around how people actually communicate and make decisions today.

Attackers are increasingly weaponizing frontier models to accelerate the entire attack lifecycle, with current and emerging models reducing the time and expertise needed to start disruptive attacks. As offensive capabilities become more automated and agentic, organizations will need security programs that are equally autonomous, coordinated and continuous. But where do you start?
Mark Hughes, Global Managing Partner, Cybersecurity Services at IBM, joins Business Security Weekly to discuss autonomous security, the next frontier of cybersecurity services. IBM recently announced IBM Autonomous Security, a separate service that uses AI agents to analyze software exposures and runtime environments. Mark will discuss the fears and hype of AI and how agentic AI agents can identify paths in an enterprise security environment that can be exploited, improve cyber hygiene, and enforce security policies. As frontier models, like Mythos, accelerate attacks, security programs need to respond with speed, at scale, to drive the right business outcomes.

The Guardrails are Gone: The Onus for AI Security Is On the Enterprise AI model providers are increasingly stepping back from enforcing guardrails, putting the responsibility for AI security squarely on enterprises. But most organizations don't yet have the visibility to meet that responsibility, facing a blind spot across the broader ecosystem of AI systems already operating in their environments. Closing that gap requires unified visibility across both AI systems and the cryptographic infrastructure they touch, so security teams can assess risk and act on it in one place.

Rethinking Security from the OS Up in the Age of AI
Karen Heart discusses a file-system–first approach to security, arguing that most modern attacks—including ransomware and supply chain compromises—succeed because they inherit user permissions and operate inside overly trusted system structures.
She explains how limiting file access, socket (network) access, and privilege escalation at the operating system level can reduce entire classes of attacks. Rather than relying on reactive detection, her approach emphasizes immutable, allowlisted controls embedded close to the kernel layer, designed to prevent both data exfiltration and malicious code execution at the source.
The conversation also explores how AI agents and contractors expand the attack surface, reinforcing the need for strict isolation, backup protection, and deterministic system boundaries.

Red team exercises set goals to see if a particular outcome can be accomplished through a simulated attack, but the ultimate outcome should be educating the org about how to improve tools and processes that make attacks more difficult to succeed. Gwyddon "Data" Owen shares his experience building a red team, creating an exercise, and leveraging the results to improve security. And while the adoption of LLMs will accelerate a red team's activities, there are still plenty of foundational security controls that orgs can establish that would require a red team to be more than just fast, but fast and very careful.
Coding Agents Are Getting More Cautious, But Not Safer
A new study finds that while frontier AI coding models are hallucinating less than they did a year ago, they still preserve a significant amount of avoidable software risk when left ungrounded. Sonatype’s research shows that connecting these models to real-time software intelligence dramatically improves remediation quality and reduces critical and high-severity vulnerability exposure by 60–70%. The takeaway is clear: safer AI-assisted development will depend not just on better models, but on grounding them in accurate, current dependency and vulnerability data.

How We Achieve Agentic Outcomes in CyberSecurity: The “Do-It-For-Me” Mobile Defense
If you look at deepfakes, synthetic identity, social engineering, and new malware variants coming to market, it seems like attackers have a first-mover advantage in using AI. The volume and variety of threats are growing faster than the current cyber stack can address. Against this backdrop, organizations are moving away from “do-it-yourself” delivery models (more tools, more alerts, more headcount) to “do-it-for-me” agentic AI delivery models (using platforms that unify data, execute policy, and automate outcomes). The emphasis outside of cyber is on empowering the expert human-in-the-loop — so teams spend less time in the noise and more time delivering business outcomes. This segment explores how cybersecurity leaders can make the most of the AI Age, leveraging it for good while staying relevant amid the explosive AI adoption curve.

The Missing Layer in Zero Trust: The Security Policy Control Plane
Zero Trust has become the dominant security architecture for hybrid and cloud environments, but many organizations are discovering that deploying enforcement technologies alone does not deliver operational control. Firewalls, cloud security groups, and microsegmentation platforms enforce access decisions, yet the policies behind those controls are often fragmented, difficult to validate, and constantly changing. In this conversation, FireMon CEO Jody Brazil discusses why modern security architectures increasingly require a security policy control plane: a layer that continuously validates how policy is enforced across firewalls, cloud networks, and segmentation platforms. The discussion explores why policy drift occurs in real environments, how enforcement systems become difficult to coordinate at scale, and what organizations must do to ensure Zero Trust policies remain consistent as infrastructure evolves.
