Risky Business #836 -- You can't patch the bugpocalypse

Listen Later

On this week’s show, Patrick Gray and James Wilson are joined by special guest co-host Brad Arkin. They discuss the week’s cybersecurity news, including:

  • The US Government says we just have to patch faster, but…
  • Bugs in cPanel, MoveIt and all Linux distributions this week show that patching alone isn’t enough
  • James gets mad about lame AI Agent adoption advice from the US and Australian Governments
  • James Kettle and Niels Provos both showed us that any model can find 0day like Mythos
  • And the cyber-assisted theft of cargo results in an astonishing loss of $725 million dollars

    • This week’s show is sponsored by SpecterOps. Their CTO, Jared Atkinson, chats to Pat about the big changes in the threat landscape, brought about by AI, that are causing a pivot away from detection and remediation, and toward prevention.

    This episode is also available on Youtube.
