Autonomous IT, Live! Turn to Face the StrAInge, Patch Speed vs AI Attacks, E08

Download MP3
In April, Jason Kikta and Dmitri Alperovitch landed on a structural conclusion: AI had collapsed patch-to-exploit time to under an hour, 1-10-60 was no longer fast enough, and the only answer was prevention. Patch by default, limit blast radius, stop playing a detection-and-response game built for human-speed attacks. 

This episode picks up where that conversation ended. What's changed since April, and can detection-first models survive the pace of change at all? Kat Traxler is here to stress test that question from the inside.

Guests: Jason Kikta, Automox CTO, Dmitri Alperovitch, Co-Founder and Chairman, Silverado Policy Accelerator
Kat Traxler, Principal Security Researcher, Vectra AI
