This week we have a technical segment focused on Linux! Paul released a script that helps you get a handle on Linux supply chain security, and new features allow you to assess the state of Secure Boot on your Linux systems (that also use MS certificates, ironically). The script is in his Git repo: https://github.com/pasadoorian/Linux_Hacks.

RSA Conference (RSAC) 2026, the 35th annual flagship event for cybersecurity, drew over 43,500 attendees, featuring more than 600 exhibitors, 570+ sessions, and 700+ speakers from 104 countries. It generated 370 million social media impressions. With this size and reach, what should security leaders expect when they attend?
Joseph Blankenship, Vice President, Research Director at Forrester Research, and Adrian Sanabria, host of Enterprise Security Weekly, join Business Security Weekly for a special recording from RSAC 2026. This pre-recorded session was filmed live from the conference on March 24, 2026. We discuss what security leaders will see, what they should expect from attending, and a few predictions for the future.
If you didn't attend the conference, don't worry, this is a great way to get an inside view. And maybe it helps you decide to attend next year.

We showcase recordings from this year's RSAC.
At RSAC Conference 2026, Scott Clinton, Co-Chair and co-founder of the OWASP GenAI Security Project, shares insights from the project's latest research, including new landscape guides and evolving approaches to securing generative and agentic AI systems. The conversation explores critical gaps in GenAI data security, the rise of AI-assisted development, and the immense growth of the OWASP community and sponsor ecosystem. Looking ahead, he outlines the most urgent risks and priorities shaping AI and agentic security in 2026.
Then Merritt Maxim discusses how AI is affecting Identity and Access Management. Expect to hear this topic a lot throughout 2026, especially as the industry tries to figure out what's different or special about securing agent identities.
We close with a chat with Janet Worthington about the impact of agents on the SDLC and how orgs are updating their controls to deal with code generated by humans and LLMs alike.

Interview with Rob Allen from Threatlocker
This week, Rob Allen from Threatlocker is with us to discuss the importance of EDR and MDR visibility. We discuss some real world attacks and anecdotes where EDR was able to save the day when threats were missed by other controls.
Topic: Do the basics, they said. Easier said than done.Guillaume and Adrian discuss the futility of attempting to do all the foundational work standards, best practices, and regulations expect of organizations. Adrian has given up. Fortunately, Guillaume has some excellent advice and hope to share on this front.

Over the last decade, cybersecurity heavily invested in EDR, XDR, SIEM, telemetry, and SOC-driven operations. We stopped asking how to stop attacks and started asking how fast we could detect them. However, Mythos and frontier models have changed that paradigm. How do you detect a -7 day vulnerability? Detection and response cannot keep, so what's the answer?
Rob Allen, Chief Product Officer at ThreatLocker, joins Business Security Weekly to discuss why cybersecurity is shifting from detection and response to prevention and enforcement. As attackers accelerate through automation and AI, organizations are revisiting prevention-focused controls. Rob will discuss why organizations need to adopt application allowlisting, Zero Trust, Ringfencing, and policy enforcement to reduce attacker freedom before execution occurs. Prevention-first security is the only way to decrease the AI attack surface.

This year has been a dichotomy of established secure design fundamentals and burgeoning chaos of LLM-driven vuln discovery. Keith Hoodlet returns to share his latest observations on what the recent news about Mythos, models, and harnesses means for appsec. He walks through the problems of misalignment, the potential development doom that looms behind a volume of vulns, and what modern code creation looks like. Along the way we touch on the economics of tokens and the principles behind secure software.
Keith gave a preview of his upcoming presentation (May 22nd) on these topics. Check out https://securing.dev/about/ for the slides and more of his writing on appsec.

Interview with Dimitri Sirota from BigID
Most organizations think AI risk lives in the model – or the identity. It doesn't. It lives in the data. In this episode, BigID's CEO reframes the conversation: why legacy access controls are breaking down, why visibility into sensitive data is the missing foundation, and what it takes to govern humans and machines under a single, accountable framework.

BigID's Agent Access Management Guide BigID's podcast, CTRL + ALT + AI This Week's Topic: Cascading BreachesWe're seeing more and more 3rd and 4th party attacks that chain through multiple layers of compromised tools and services. In this topic segment, we discuss the two main aspects of this trend:
How we can stop the chain of breaches from a third party library, vendor, or service provider How this might get handled at the legal, contractual, and organizational levelsWe discuss two big recent examples:
Sonicwall's 2025 breach of their cloud firewall configuration backup service The compromise of Aqua Security's widely used Trivy open source tool The Weekly Enterprise NewsFinally, in the enterprise security news,
Funding and M&A courtesy of the Security, Funded newsletter We have evidence that attackers are leveraging AI now (this sounds like old news, but there was little to no evidence before, when people were claiming this) The Angry admin problem emerges again Vulnerability information is getting crazy to keep up with Breach information is getting crazy to keep up with You can give your Agents an allowance now - don't spend it all in one place Are vulnerabilities sparse or dense? Mythos, as a model, isn't all that special Deploy your own deception sensors! Japan made something weird. Again.All that and more, on this episode of Enterprise Security Weekly.

If you have to ditch your entire appsec strategy because you expect 2026 to bring more vulns more quickly, then you probably didn't have a good strategy in the first place. Rob Allen shares how the mentality of "assume breach" doesn't have to be a defeatist attitude and can instead be a way to change a catastrophic breach into a more contained one. We also talk about proactive security and what an "avoid breach" attitude could look like, including how to apply the macro lessons of default deny and network isolation to writing secure code.

Copy Fail The hits keep coming for CVE, NIST and NVD Cyber attacks on breathalyzers insurance carriers pulling support for AI Florida Man pleads guilty ignore the humanities at your own peril offense and defense don't scale the same is it okay to be left behind? scientists gave cocaine to salmon Mind the Gap: Confidence, AI, and the Future of Exposure ManagementFormer ethical hacker, now founder and CEO of Intruder, Chris Wallis explores whether AI can bridge the divide between finding vulnerabilities and understanding real-world attack context as exploit windows continue to shrink. This conversation dives into the structural "confidence gap" uncovered in Intruder's 2026 Security Middle Child Report, where executive risk appetite is increasingly decoupled from front-line operational reality.
Check out Intruder's Security Middle Child Report at https://securityweekly.com/intruderrsac.
Modern Phishing Attacks Are Under Multi-Channel SiegeRecently, there has been a shift in cybercriminals' behavior, marked by a surge in total phishing attack volume. These attacks are fueled by high-scale automation and a coordinated multi-channel siege targeting corporate collaboration tools. Trusted platforms such as email, Teams, calendars and others are in the cross-hairs, bypassing traditional phishing methods that have worked in the past.

AI is Now Default Enterprise AcceleratorThe Zscaler ThreatLabz 2026 AI Security Report reveals that enterprise AI adoption has surged by up to 93% year-over-year, yet 100% of tested AI environments remain vulnerable to breaches that can occur in as little as 16 minutes. It highlights a dangerous shift toward "machine-speed" threats, where attackers use generative AI to automate data exfiltration and create sophisticated deepfakes. To combat these risks, the report urges organizations to move beyond simple blocking and instead implement a Zero Trust architecture for safe, AI-native data protection.
