Security | Threat Detection | Cyberattacks | DevSecOps | Compliance

There are two types of companies: those who have been compromised and those who will be. Mid and small businesses are walking into this reality without understanding what AI has changed. On The Cybersecurity Defenders Podcast, David Chernitzky, CEO and co-founder of Armour Cybersecurity, explains why the gap between how large organizations understand AI-driven threats and how smaller ones do is widening fast.

Join us for this week's Defender Fridays as Charles Grandjean, CTO and Co-founder at Hexiagon AI, breaks down where AI-assisted pen testing actually stands today and what it means for both red teams and defenders. At Defender Fridays, we delve into the dynamic world of information security, exploring its defensive side with seasoned professionals from across the industry. Our aim is simple yet ambitious: to foster a collaborative space where ideas flow freely, experiences are shared, and knowledge expands.

Sometimes unlimited tokens and rippin' guitar riffs can't solve every problem. The best builders know what NOT to build. Vibe coding might cut down on time, but that's only a fraction (20%) of the total software lifecycle cost. The other 70–80%? Maintenance, security patches, compliance updates. The slow grind of keeping it alive in production. When it comes to something as complex and critical as keeping your security airtight, depth wins over speed every time.

ggshield 1.51 is here with better support for AI-powered development and browser-less environments. This release adds Codex hook support, MCP server detection across Claude and Cursor, and `ggshield auth login --method oob` for SSH sessions and headless servers. It also strengthens trust in the ggshield supply chain with GitHub Artifact Attestations for release binaries, improves plugin management through your authenticated GitGuardian instance, adds a `vscode` alias for Copilot hook installation, and shows workspace ID in `ggshield api-status`.

Today’s adversaries move at the speed of AI, so defenders need to reason, decide, and act faster across every stage of security operations. Meet Charlotte AI AgentWorks, a no-code agent builder that enables teams to create mission-ready AI agents directly inside the CrowdStrike Falcon platform.

Learn how CrowdStrike Falcon Shield helps organizations harden their GitHub Enterprise environments against state-sponsored adversaries like FAMOUS CHOLLIMA. A DPRK-nexus threat actor actively targeting developer environments in 2026. This demo showcases how Falcon Shield continuously monitors GitHub Enterprise for misconfigurations, exposed CI/CD secrets, over-permissioned tokens, and other security risks that adversaries exploit to launch supply chain attacks.

Modern adversaries do not break in loudly anymore. They log in, blend in, and move faster than most security teams can respond. In CrowdStrike’s 2026 Global Threat Report, the fastest observed breakout time was just 27 seconds, while 82% of detections were malware-free. Traditional defenses were not built for attacks that look like normal activity. This lightboard session breaks down why defenders are struggling to keep up, how modern adversaries operate across identities and cloud environments, and why the gap between intelligence and action continues to grow.
