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.

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.

Modern SOCs face a difficult reality: attackers are moving faster while analysts are being asked to investigate more alerts than ever. Learn how agentic triage helps security teams move from alert overload to evidence-backed investigations. Rather than relying on opaque AI outputs, the approach uses expert-written playbooks and exposes the underlying queries and evidence so analysts can verify conclusions against raw network data.
