Responding to the challenge of deepfakes [Q&A]
Recent advancements in publicly available AI models have made it incredibly easy to generate deepfakes -- so much so that attackers don’t need to be technical experts to pull off convincing deception campaigns.
Attackers can scrape public content to recreate someone's voice or face, and inject that fake identity into virtual meetings, phone calls, or even training videos.
The challenge of syncing virtual economies across platforms [Q&A]
As people increasingly demand seamless experiences across platforms, developers face growing complexity in managing unified virtual economies.
In the games sector in particular companies need to leverage distributed architecture, virtual currencies, and real-time inventory reconciliation to ensure consistent user experiences and secure transaction flows.
Rethinking AppSec for the AI era [Q&A]
The application security landscape has always been a complex one and can lead to teams spending too much time hunting down vulnerabilities. With AI becoming more popular there are even greater risks to consider.
We spoke to Yossi Pik, co-founder and CTO at Backslash Security, to discuss how AppSec needs to adapt to the greater use of AI.
Securing Kubernetes in the enterprise [Q&A]
As more organizations scale up containerized workloads they’re also facing increasing security and compliance challenges.
Kim McMahon part of the leadership team at Sidero Labs to discuss the vulnerabilities enterprises are encountering when scaling up Kubernetes on traditional operating systems and what they can do to counter them.
Why one-time security assessments are no longer sufficient [Q&A]
With cyber threats becoming more numerous and ever more sophisticated, it’s becoming more critical than ever for organizations to prioritize targeted threats, optimize their existing defensive capabilities and proactively reduce their exposure.
One-time security assessments are looking increasingly inadequate. We spoke to CyberProof CEO Tony Velleca to discuss how organizations can effectively implement a Continuous Threat Exposure Management (CTEM) strategy to improve their protection.
Why the traditional SOC model needs to evolve [Q&A]
The security operations center (SOC) has long relied on traditional SOAR platforms to manage incidents, but today’s threat landscape is moving too fast for rigid, static approaches. As attackers use AI to evolve their tactics, security teams need smarter, more adaptive systems to keep up.
We spoke to Tom Findling, co-founder and CEO of Conifers.ai, about how AI-powered SOC platforms are helping organizations scale their defenses, improve threat detection, and move from reactive alert management to proactive risk reduction.
How do you know if you’re dealing with a human or a bot? [Q&A]
If you’ve seen ‘Blade Runner’ you’ll know how difficult it can be to determine if someone is human or not. While that was fiction it’s worth remembering that it was set in 2019.
In 2025 and in the real world it’s becoming increasingly difficult to tell humans from bots in the online world. AI-powered bots, nearly indistinguishable from humans, are multiplying rapidly. This presents a growing nightmare for headhunters, security officers and more. We spoke to Terence Kwok, founder and CEO of blockchain identity platform Humanity Protocol, about the challenge of verifying humanity online.
Maximizing value from Microsoft 365 [Q&A]
Many organizations have now adopted Microsoft 365 as a central part of their office service provision. But are they getting the most out of the software that they’re paying for?
We spoke to Vadim Vladimirskiy, CEO of Nerdio, about how businesses can use more than just the big services and why it’s important to understand sizing and bolt-ons in order to extract maximum value from their M365 investment.
The challenge of moving AI from prototype to production [Q&A]
More organizations are turning to AI to assist in their digital transformation efforts, but many projects get stuck in the pilot phase.
That’s not necessarily a sign of failure though. Rather, it reflects that AI is still in its formative stage, with its most transformative impact still ahead. We spoke to Nadav Eiron, SVP of cloud engineering at Crusoe to learn more about how AI can transition from experimentation to integration, and from potential to permanence.
How AI is transforming customer service interactions [Q&A]
If you’ve contacted a company recently it’s more than likely that you have encountered some form of AI either online or over the phone.
We spoke to Priya Vijayarajendran, CEO of ASAAP to find out how AI is transforming real-time customer service interactions in the contact center, and what it means for the evolving relationship between humans and machines.
How the SOC is evolving to meet new threats [Q&A]
As cybersecurity threats grow more sophisticated and relentless, the role of the Security Operations Center (SOC) has never been more critical.
In response organizations are re-imagining their SOCs to address the dual challenges of an evolving threat landscape and a shifting workforce dynamic. We spoke to Scott Scheppers, chief experience officer at LevelBlue to find out more about this shift and how SOC teams are pivotal in safeguarding operations, fostering innovation, and mentoring the next generation of cybersecurity talent.
Dealing with the challenge of securing machine identities [Q&A]
Machine identities have proliferated in recent years, but while they offer convenience they also introduce new vulnerabilities.
We spoke to Ev Kontsevoy, Teleport CEO, to learm more about the problem of securing machine IDs and what enterprises can do to address it.
Why browser security is increasingly essential for the enterprise [Q&A]
As enterprises embrace hybrid work, SaaS applications, and AI tools at unprecedented scale, one critical access point is being increasingly targeted by attackers: the browser.
To better understand the risks and what can be done to secure the browser, we spoke with Alon Levin, vice president of product management at Seraphic Security, and an expert in enterprise browser security.
Why effective exposure management is key to cybersecurity [Q&A]
Thanks to the rise of hybrid working and SaaS the traditional concept of ‘attack surface’ -- limited to hardware, software, and network infrastructure -- is dangerously outdated and no longer sufficient to ensure cybersecurity.
We spoke to Mike Riemer, senior vice president Network Security Group and field CISO at Ivanti, to find out how organizations need to adapt to keep their systems secure.
Why the future of AI isn’t about better models -- it’s about better governance [Q&A]
The rise of generative and agentic AI is transforming how data is accessed and used, not just by humans but by non-human AI agents acting on their behalf. This shift is driving an unprecedented surge in data access demands, creating a governance challenge at a scale that traditional methods can’t handle.
If organizations can’t match the surge in access requests, innovation will stall, compliance risks will spike, and organizations will reach a breaking point. Joe Regensburger, VP of research at Immuta, argues that the solution isn’t more powerful AI models; it’s better governance. We talked to him to learn more.
