While our team is observing the Martin Luther King, Jr. holiday in the United States, please enjoy this CyberWire-X episode featuring the team from Horizon3.ai.

In this CyberWire-X episode, Dave Bittner speaks with Horizon3.ai co-founder and CEO Snehal Antani about how continuous autonomous penetration testing is reshaping security resilience. Antani reflects on his journey from CIO to DoD operator, where he learned that the hardest part of security isn’t patching — it’s prioritizing what matters and proving defenses work before attackers do. He explains why vulnerability scans fall short, how “AI hackers” simulate adversary behavior at machine speed, and why organizations must shift from compliance thinking to attacker-centric validation. Antani shares real-world findings, warns of 77-second domain compromise, and predicts a future of AI fighting AI, with humans by exception.
