Prompt injection demonstrates one of the major challenges in securing LLMs and agents -- how do you ensure an agent ignores attackers and only does what you instructed it to do. The flaw highlights how LLMs mix inputs, context, and outputs without any strict boundaries between them. Julie Brunias joins us to talk through examples of injections, why their consequences can go beyond information leaks, and why trying to mitigate them with other LLMs is insufficient.

Interview with Rob Sadowski from Cohesity
Global Cyber Resilience Report: Cyber Recovery Plans Weren't Designed for this Moment
Cyber recovery plans weren't designed for this moment. Most were built around assumptions that made sense when they were written: incidents could be understood, dependencies mapped, recovery could follow a predictable sequence, and decision-makers would have enough information to act.
In practice, major cyber incidents unravel those assumptions. AI and autonomous agents are creating new paths to compromise, while cloud and SaaS expansion increases the systems, services, and dependencies involved in recovery. Vulnerabilities are discovered and weaponized faster than ever, and AI is accelerating that cycle. As incidents unfold, scope expands, dependencies appear only when they break, and recovery plans no longer match reality.
With assumptions under greater strain, confidence is beginning to erode. This year, the percentage of survey respondents reporting complete confidence in their cyber resilience strategy fell.
To understand how recovery unfolds today, Cohesity commissioned Vanson Bourne to survey 3,200 IT and security decision-makers at organizations with 1,000 or more employees across 11 countries.
This report examines where recovery becomes more difficult than expected, the obstacles organizations encounter, how they define and test a Minimum Viable Company (MVC), and how AI is reshaping cyber threats and cyber resilience.

Topic: When should we use AI for writing and when should we avoid it?
I've had an essay in draft form for a month now, trying to get my feelings across on why AI writing drives me so crazy. I struggled to put it into words.
Fortunately, Charity Majors figured out how to put it into words and I think she nailed not just how I feel about AI, but the reasons why I feel so strongly about it. She uses a scale to help explain this, with "personal" at one end and "functional" at the other.
https://charity.wtf/p/confessions-of-an-unrepentant-slop
When I ask AI to create a company profile for me, 10 minutes before I meet with them, I don't need poetry - just facts. But when I read something that is supposedly someone's opinions and analysis on a topic, and it's clearly 100% AI-generated, I angrily dismiss it.
I love that this writeup isn't just an "I hate slop" rant - it actually quantifies why a personal touch matters and how to gauge when it is necessary and when outsourcing the task to AI is totally fine.
In both cases, Charity notes that quality matters. My most recent complaints come from cases where things are not only clearly written by AI, but where quality went out the window and they're unrecognizable as a human-readable language.
And yes, I brought an example: https://dispatch.cybersecurityhq.com/p/escalation-voided-on-construct-failure-timing-condition-placed-under-review

The overwhelming majority of people, across the full span of their professional lives, operate without formal authority over the domains in which they work (i.e., leadership). Yet followership has almost no sustained literature, no targeted development, and no rigorous framework of its own. If you're not a leader, what does a follower look like?
Kenyada Meadows, CEO & Founder at The Executive Parent Company, joins Business Security Weekly to discuss his book, The PASSENGER Seat, which outlines a framework for followership. Kenyada will outline the nine disciplines of the framework across three dimensions, including:
(P) Principled Anchoring — Holds values explicitly and specifically enough to guide behavior under pressure; knows the limit line before reaching it.
(A) Accountability — Communicates upward honestly, documents concerns before decisions are made, and owns errors without deflection.
(S) Self-Mastery — Invests deliberately in work, home, and inner domains, so identity — and ethical agency — isn't hostage to institutional threat.
(S) Systems Thinking — Reads the institution analytically — what produces the patterns observed, and where honest information is being filtered.
(E) Emerging Risk Management — Functions as an early-warning system for risks that formal frameworks haven't yet named.
(N) Negotiation — Translates insight and values into institutional impact through credibility, framing, coalition, and timing. -(G) Guardianship — Protects what the institution stands for over time, especially when no one is watching.
(E) Enablement — Ensures influence strengthens collective capacity rather than merely advancing individual position.
(R) Results-Driven Influence — Binds the other eight disciplines toward outcomes that are genuinely better — not merely visible.

While agents and LLMs haven't fundamentally changed core mobile vulnerability types, they have supercharged speed, scale, and accessibility—democratizing threats like automated phishing, synthetic identity fraud, and easier identification of hard-coded secrets. Ryan Lloyd and Jason Cortlund break down how threat actors leverage LLMs as a force multiplier to accelerate mobile app attacks. Then we discuss actionable defense strategies, from viewing agents as an active adversary to leveraging server-side threat telemetry, attestation, and layered defense strategies combined with polymorphic code releases.

Twenty-five years since 9/11, and we open by marking it properly — the people who didn't come home, and the survivors and responders still carrying it, physically and mentally, a quarter of a century on.
Then we get to work.
Shift-left didn't fail. The starting line moved. AI coding agents now read the issue, write the code, pick the dependencies and open the pull request — so the earliest trust boundary isn't your first commit any more, it's the moment an agent gets context and authority. Most of us haven't moved our controls with it.

The Hidden Risks of the AI Supply Chain - Black Hat interview with Michael Leland, VP and Field CTO of Island
Agents can independently discover and install tools, but the emerging ecosystem of Skills and MCP servers lacks many of the trust and security controls applied to traditional software. Michael Leland discusses Island's research uncovering thousands of malicious repositories, widespread security flaws across MCP servers, and a new attack technique called "AgentBaiting," in which attackers manipulate agents into finding and recommending malware to users. The conversation explains how enterprises can govern AI capabilities without slowing adoption.

The Perfect Storm: When AI Writes the Code and Sharpens the Attacks - Black Hat interview with Idan Plotnik, Co-Founder and CEO of Apiiro
Two storms are converging on how software gets built. The first: AI coding assistants are generating far more code than any security team can review, and with it, far more risk. The second: AI is sharpening the tools attackers use to find and exploit weaknesses faster than ever. Idan Plotnik explains why this convergence has moved the security perimeter to the coding agent itself, and makes the case for a prevention-first model where an AI AppSec agent guards coding agents in real time, governed by the principle that the agent writing the code cannot be the one to secure it.

Model, Harness, Gym: Why Novee Owns the Full AI Pentesting Stack - Black Hat interview with Ido Geffen, Founder & CEO of Novee Security
Most AI security tools are thin wrappers around a general-purpose frontier LLM — reasoning capability rented from someone else, applied to a generic scanning workflow. In this interview, Ido Geffen breaks down what it means to own the full AI pentesting stack — the proprietary offensive reasoning model, the harness that coordinates specialized agents, and the training gym where those agents are continuously benchmarked, post-trained on real attacker tradecraft, and promoted into production.
Ido explains why owning each layer matters: it's how Novee's model consistently outperforms frontier LLMs at live browser exploitation, how the platform improves at a rate the customer feels every cycle, how Novee keeps security testing cost-efficient rather than relying on tokenized pricing models, and how new attacker techniques get injected into agent memory the moment Novee's research team observes them in the wild. He then makes the case that owning the model is only half the story. The other half is the Asset Intelligence Model — a living understanding of each customer's environment, workflows, permissions, APIs, and business logic. That's what turns a generalist AI hacker into a bespoke one: not just an attacker that reasons well, but one that reasons well about your specific business. He closes with how this advantage leads to findings that get more targeted every cycle, remediation tailored to an organization's tech stack, and a platform whose ceiling rises as attackers get faster.

Topic - The British Library Cyber-Attack
For this week's topic segment, we're discussing the British Library cyber-attack.
In October 2023, the British Library, one of the largest libraries in the world, was breached by the Rhysida ransomware group. The attack encrypted systems across the organization, led to over 500,000 files being leaked, and set off a recovery effort that consumed a significant portion of the Library's £17.5 million cash reserves. With no clear end date, this is a story of what could happen when all of an organization's tech debt comes due at once.
