Mikko puts in his notice Pitch Black in real life, and more! Segment 2 - Interview with Dr. Tina Srivastava The #1 cause of data breaches is stolen credentials. What if we didn’t store credentials anymore? We explore Badge’s innovative approach—which enables users to generate a private key on the fly instead of storing credentials—to enhance security, solve key use cases such as shared devices, and deliver measurable ROI. Additionally, we'll uncover the unavoidable recovery flow challenges, where users must rely on a pre-enrolled recovery device or fallback passwords, and discuss what this means for enterprise security and cost savings. By shifting the paradigm toward ephemeral key generation, Badge eliminates stored credentials, optimizes enterprise cost savings, and future-proofs authentication.

Segment 3 - Interviews from RSAC 2025 Executive Interview with Saviynt Evolving compliance needs, overflowing tech stacks, and the ever-increasing number of types of enterprise identities — not to mention the complications resulting from business use of AI — means traditional identity platforms can't keep up with the needs of today's enterprises. Organizations need something smarter: converged, cloud-native and future-ready identity security that scales with enterprises as they grow, addressing their cybersecurity challenges today and in the future. Join us in this episode as we break down the shortcomings of legacy IAM and uncover how an intelligent, identity-centric approach sets enterprises on the path to success.

During times of volatility, business leaders often don’t know what they are able to change or even what they should change. At precisely these times, business leaders become risk leaders and need to quickly learn how to identify what is within their control and what isn’t — to not only survive but thrive. Alla Valente, Principal Analyst at Forrester Research, joins Business Security Weekly to discuss how to Regain Control Over Business Risk With The Three E’s Framework, a report that provides a framework for identifying what is controllable and how to be smart when dealing with volatility.

The recent popularity of MCPs is surpassed only by the recent examples deficiencies of their secure design. The most obvious challenge is how MCPs, and many more general LLM use cases, have erased two decades of security principles behind separating code and data. We take a look at how developers are using LLMs to generate code and continue our search for where LLMs are providing value to appsec. We also consider what indicators we'd look for as signs of success. For example, are LLMs driving useful commits to overburdened open source developers? Are LLMs climbing the ranks of bug bounty platforms? In the news, more examples of prompt injection techniques against LLM features in GitLab and GitHub, the value (and tradeoffs) in rewriting code, secure design lessons from a history of iOS exploitation, checking for all the ways to root, and NIST's approach to (maybe) measuring likely exploited vulns.

Segment 2 Libraesva Interview Generative AI is having a transformative effect across almost every industry, but arguably the area it has had the most significant impact is cybercrime. Discriminative AI can now learn to recognize what constitutes normal communication patterns, so anything out of the ordinary can be flagged. AI is also enabling human security analysts to automate the triage of reported emails, to rapidly identify false positives and keep up with emerging cybercriminal tactics. Finally, specialized Small Language Models (SLMs) using neural networks are able to analyze and comprehend the semantic intent of the message. This segment is sponsored by Libraesva.

Using recent guidance from NIST and his company’s data on which certificates and keys pose the largest threats to organization now, Chris unpacks what it means to be risk intelligent and quantum safe. Segment Resources: • Command Risk Intelligence press release: https://www.keyfactor.com/press-releases/keyfactor-unveils-worlds-first-certificate-risk-management-solution/ • Recent blog post on the transition to PQC: https://www.keyfactor.com/blog/getting-quantum-ready-why-2030-matters-for-post-quantum-cryptography/ To learn more about the road to being quantum ready, stop by Keyfactor’s booth at the conference, number #748, or visit: https://securityweekly.com/keyfactorrsac As cyber threats become increasingly difficult to detect and the technology to combat them continues to evolve, organizations must be prepared to move faster than ever. Looking ahead, the rise of post-quantum computing will bring both new opportunities and challenges, further reshaping the cybersecurity landscape. With the launch of Entrust’s Cryptographic Security Platform (announcement coming April 16th) as a backdrop, Jordan can discuss why all organizations – large and small – must prioritize post-quantum preparedness before it’s too late. He can also address emerging fraud technologies (e.g., deepfakes, GenAI) and fraud attacks (account takeovers, synthetic identities, impersonation), which are drawing more attention to the need for cyber-resilient methods, such as post-quantum cryptography, to protect against new fraud risks in the digital future.

As quantum computing advances, the security foundations of our digital world face unprecedented challenges. This session explores how integrating Public Key Infrastructure (PKI) and Domain Name System (DNS) technologies can fortify digital trust in the quantum era. We'll delve into strategies for transitioning to post-quantum cryptography, ensuring interoperability, and maintaining the integrity of digital communications.
