Open source security takes center stage as a fast-moving npm worm (Shai-Hulud) infects packages with more than 2 billion monthly downloads, and Amazon links a North Korean group to multiple other open-source supply-chain attacks. Researchers also document the first known case of an AI agent hacking another AI agent, while RapidFort works to extend protection into runtime environments.
The conversation continues with a hard look at why cyber resilience strategies often fall short, how Commvault’s tie-up with Google Threat Intelligence fits the trend, and how LinkedIn has become an active counterintelligence battlefield in the “Robin Sage 2.0” era.
Host: Mike Vizard. Guests: Jack Gold (J.Gold Associates), Drew Gutstein (Gutstein Security Works), Robert Reeves.
