A new year brings new cyber risks, and 2026 will move faster than most security teams are built to handle. From agentic AI to deepfakes, the old playbook is already getting outdated.
Host Allec Brust is joined by Presidio CISOs Dan Lohrmann and Mike Brown to break down the 2026 cybersecurity outlook and what leaders should prioritize now. They pull insights from 125 industry reports, spotlight the trends showing up across top vendor forecasts, and translate what it all means for security roadmaps, investments, and day-to-day defense.
