Managing a cyber crisis extends far beyond the initial breach, tossing leadership into a chaotic fog where security teams, legal counsels, and executives must make high-stakes choices under extreme duress. When a catastrophic security event occurs, organizations struggle against a predictable set of systemic, technical, and operational roadblocks. How can organizations transition from a reactive state to a controlled recovery, successful crisis management state?
Mone' Ross, Vice President, Cyber Operations at JPMorganChase, joins Business Security Weekly to discuss Cyber Resilience and the leadership behaviors that determine what happens under pressure. Mone' will discuss why preparation and communication are imperative to a successful response. She has also identified the five Crisis Archetypes and how each type should or should not lead during a crisis.
In the leadership and communications segment, AI Security Now Tops Every CISO Priority for 2027, What a security strategy that survives 2027 looks like, Leaders Need to Grapple with Employee Ambivalence on AI, and more!

AI-enabled cyber attackers will check every third-party path into an application at scale and speed. The same process can help defenders just as much, but it's only as effective as the human expertise guiding it. Andrew Wesie, Xint co-founder and CTO. explains how human engineering in harness construction is the determining factor between real, autonomous exploit discovery and validation versus a machine that just generates more noise.

Interview - Danielle Russell - The Attack Surface Changed: Who Reassesses Risk After the Approval?
The attack surface now changes faster than any team can reassess it, as employees add integrations, grants, and agents to apps long after they were approved. Danielle Russell, VP of Product at Nudge Security, explains what continuous reassessment looks like in practice: which changes deserve a response, which work agentic AI can take on, and where analysts still make the call. She also makes the case that security still owns the risk after approval, even when it never saw the change that created it.

Topic Segment - Coordinated Disclosure
An AI-found PHP flaw sat unfixed since 2024, a PoC video leaked, and a vendor broke the embargo early, citing active exploits.
Coordinated disclosure in 2026 is:
75% - Too slow for AI world
13% - Vendor Credit Race
13% - This is fine ????????️????
0% - Working as designed
0% - Other (tell me)
Mike's thoughts: Only a few folks think coordinated disclosure is working as designed, based on last week's vibe check. Everyone else lands somewhere between "too slow" and the dog sitting in the burning room. I think the old disclosure window was built for a world where a human found the bug, a human wrote the fix, and disclosed it responsibly (most of the time). Now AI finds flaws faster than vendors can ship patches, so any kind of embargo stops being a grace period. It becomes a head start for whoever else found the same bug. I don't think shorter deadlines fix this. The fix side has to get as fast as the find side, which is actually the hardest part of the puzzle to solve in cyber.

As the prevalence of AI continues to grow, more and more people are worried about their online safety. New scams seem to be popping up every day, packaged in creative and terrifying ways. How do you protect yourself?
Frank Riccardi, Author of CTRL+ALT+PWN: The Hacker's Playbook (And How to Beat It), joins Business Security Weekly to discuss why it's not the technology that PWNs you, it's the trickery. Rather than resign yourself to an inevitable fate or remove yourself from the online world entirely, learn the tricks of the trade to avoid being just another pwned noob. Frank exposes the secret weapons, sneaky tactics, and psychological tricks used by hackers today—and discusses how to stop them.

Following the catalog of CVEs is great for enumeration, but chasing those CVEs for patching is terrible for strategy. Jeremiah Grossman shows what breach data tells us about the differences between having over 400,000 CVEs, a few thousand KEVs, and a few hundred ways that attackers compromise orgs. We go into the importance of distinguishing vulns from exploits and where we see agents making a meaningful impact. Then we touch on some history of appsec and why the trajectory of vulns like SQL injection and XSS, along with well-known security controls, point to a more secure future -- or even possibly a pretty secure present.

Proactive security doesn't have to wait for a vuln to be disclosed. Even if a patch isn't available, it's possible to deploy controls and design systems to be resilient against how vulns are exploited. Rashid Feroze talks about runtime security and the benefits of deploying eBPF filters to improve observability and block unauthorized behavior. He walks through scenarios related to supply chain attacks, prompt injections against agents, and responding to major events like PHP2Shell. We touch on threat models to help distinguish between what eBPF filters can protect against and what still requires secure coding discipline from developers.

Interview with Barrett Lyon
Why do we need a Parallel Internet? Barrett details his journey to build truly private access to the Internet. My first thought was, "why not VPN? Why not TOR?" He has good answers to both. To get there, he had to ship his own hardware all over the world. He had to stand up a CDN. DNS. BGP. Anti-DDoS.
This is more than just a safer, more secure way to access the Internet - it is an API-driven, optionally agent-controlled software-defined network. And it's a consumer-priced product that starts at $6 a month? My head is spinning.
Note: this is NOT a sponsored segment, I'm just legitimately fascinated by it! When this was pitched to me, it sounded so outlandish, I almost passed on it. Then I saw that Barrett created and sold 5 companies, two of which were major anti-DDoS vendors. Clearly, this guy knows how to build serious, scalable infrastructure. Enjoy the conversation!

Vibe Check
Which security acronym/phrases deserves to be retired?
38% - XDR
25% - Zero Trust
25% - UEBA
6% - CNAPP
6% - Non-Human
0% - Other (leave a comment)
Nothing like some acronym soup and buzzwords to really get people out to vote! Shared anger can be a powerful thing, and I'm here for the rants.
I have to agree with the top three votes: XDR, Zero Trust, and UEBA (User and Entity Behavior Analytics). CNAPP can see ya later, and since agents outnumber humans 100-1,000 to 1 now, can we call our user accounts "Pro-Human" instead of calling service accounts and agent IDs "Non-Human"?
I'm currently raising on this business concept - pre-revenue, pre-TAM, pre-founder, and pre-idea. Expecting to close a $150M pre-seed at a $100B post-money valuation in the next few weeks. Let me know if you want in. ????
Top Comments
"Other - The "AI TRiSM" term can go kick the biggest of rocks"
"Other - Shift left"
"My god I have always hated zero trust and would love to see it die. What a stupid, over-the-top & exaggerated phrase to just basically mean that having a bunch of unauth/flat user roles things is bad… how an entire category of the industry managed to piggyback off cloud to make ZTNA a thing I've no idea. Also led to the annoying trend of overly segmenting all the things. rant over"

In this episode, Kriss Stephen, Principal Solutions Architect at Semperis, explores the concept of the Minimum Viable Company and the three foundational capabilities every organization needs to withstand and recover from a cyberattack. Drawing from his experience in identity security and cyber resilience, Kriss shares practical lessons on how organizations can prioritize recovery, protect critical identity systems, and maintain business operations during disruptive incidents. Listeners will gain actionable insights into building resilience before a breach occurs and accelerating recovery when it matters most.
