In this episode - Why 'they don't hack, they log in' is how most incidents really start - Windows 11 isn't secure by default until you configure and harden it - Attackers specialise in one weakness and try it everywhere - The first hour after the phone rings: assume breach, don't reboot, pull cables, cut outbound internet - A recovery plan fits on one page, and IT needs a 'wartime' mode - The controls that matter most: privileged access workstations, no password reuse, no admin rights for developers - Why remote tools are risky and RDP gives you logs - Security theater: BitLocker as your main control and expensive 'AI' firewalls Chapters 00:00 Welcome: Sami Laiho and Mikael Nyström 05:02 They don't hack, they log in 07:35 Is Windows 11 secure by default? 16:19 The first hour after the call 20:09 A recovery plan on one page 22:26 One control: separate admin devices 23:53 Admin rights and developers 28:56 Security theater 33:08 Why does your DC need internet? 36:52 The hilarious history of Windows Guests Sami Laiho – Microsoft MVP, Adminize Workplace Ninja Summit 2026: 11 Ways to Hack Windows 11 (Tue 15 Sep 14:30, Trafohall) · Hilarious History of Windows (Tue 15 Sep 17:00, Trafohall) · Keynote: Cybersecurity from Disabler to Enabler (Wed 16 Sep 09:50, Trafohall) Mikael Nyström – Incident response (CSIRT), Truesec Workplace Ninja Summit 2026: IT disaster bootcamp (Wed 16 Sep 13:10, Glassaal, with Andreas Hammarskjöld) · You Don't Get Hacked — They Log In (Thu 17 Sep 13:10, Trafohall) Hosts Frans Oudendorp & Peter Daalmans Recorded at Workplace Ninja Summit 2026 in Baden, Switzerland.

    AI for Security vs. Security for AI | With Itay Peled & Yuri Diogenes

    Itay Peled (Project Perception) and Yuri Diogenes (Defender for Cloud) on the two sides of AI in security: using AI to defend, and securing the AI everyone is deploying. Recorded live at Workplace Ninja Summit 2026 with Frans Oudendorp and Alex Verboon. In this episode - Why "AI for security" and "security for AI" are different problems that you can't solve separately - Exposure management for agents: an agent that was never meant to be internet-facing can still be reachable through an attack path - Prompt injection and indirect prompt injection as the big threat to agents, and why MITRE ATLAS is worth knowing - How attackers use AI today: more scale, and digging deeper than they could before - Agent sprawl: start with an inventory through AI security posture management, and give every agent an identity in Entra so Conditional Access applies - Agent 365 as the control plane, Defender as the security view, and why data classification has to be in place before you point an agent at SharePoint - Project Perception is read-only today: it recommends and explains, and a human takes the action - Careers: admins and analysts won't be replaced but will need new skills, and why soft skills and in-person networking still matter Chapters 00:00 Welcome: Itay Peled and Yuri Diogenes 01:52 AI for security vs. security for AI 04:55 Exposure management for AI agents 06:37 Prompt injection and MITRE ATLAS 09:13 How attackers use AI today 10:24 Agent inventory and agent identities 13:07 Agent 365, Defender and data protection 17:55 Human in the loop: when the agent is wrong 19:08 Will AI replace admins and analysts? 25:06 Yuri's 35 books, soft skills and networking 29:56 What Itay wants asked at the AMA Guests Itay Peled – Microsoft Security Research, working on Project Perception, Microsoft's agentic SOC Workplace Ninja Summit 2026: Project Perception / agentic SOC · Threat landscape · Microsoft Security AMA Yuri Diogenes – Microsoft, customer experience engineering for Defender for Cloud and exposure management Workplace Ninja Summit 2026: AI-SPM & Threat Detection · Proactive Security Posture Management Hosts Frans Oudendorp & Alex Verboon Recorded at Workplace Ninja Summit 2026 in Baden, Switzerland.
