"We're Becoming Dumb and Numb": Why #BlackHat 2025's AI Hype Is Killing Cybersecurity -- And Our Ability to Think 🤔 💭
Random and Unscripted Podcast On ITSPmagazine
The Weekly Update with Sean Martin, CISSP and Marco Ciappelli
Picture this: You walk into Black Hat USA 2025, and every vendor booth is screaming "agentic AI." Different companies, different products—but they all taste like the same #marketing milkshake.
Sean and I witnessed the echo chamber firsthand. When everyone claims their AI is autonomous and perfect, how do CISOs tell them apart?
How do you even know what you're buying?
But this goes deeper than marketing noise. We're talking about the real danger of surrendering critical thinking to black-box systems we don't fully understand.
Marco introduces the ancient Greek myth of Talos—a bronze AI guardian who seemed invincible until one fatal flaw destroyed everything. Sound familiar?
"Do you really wanna trust the weapon to just go and shoot everybody?"
The questions we explored:
Are we creating a "lowest common denominator" reality where AI defines success?
What happens when we stop thinking and just hit the "easy button"?
Are we trapped in "circular knowledge learning" where #AI creates the questions AND answers?
Our solution isn't abandoning AI—it's getting honest about limitations. Stop selling perfection. Share your gaps. Because CISOs aren't stupid, and the truth always comes out.
In an industry built on protecting against deception, maybe it's time we stop deceiving ourselves.

What's your take? Are we becoming too dependent on AI decision-making?

We're excited to share this eye-opening Brand Story conversation thanks to our friends at Zscaler 🙏
#Ransomware has evolved. Attackers no longer need to encrypt your data—they're stealing it and threatening public exposure unless you pay.
At #BlackHat2025, Brett Stone-Gross from #Zscaler reveals how this shift changes everything about defense strategies.
The new reality organizations face:
• Stolen data moves slowly enough to avoid alerts—or quickly enough to overwhelm teams
• File transfer tools and other apps left exposed to the internet create easy entry points
• Advanced groups target single victims for multimillion-dollar payouts based on stolen data value
• The U.S. accounts for ~50% of ransomware incidents, making American companies prime targets
• Legacy systems in #healthcare, #manufacturing, and oil & gas amplify risksZscaler's #zerotrust approach tackles these challenges by:
• Eliminating internet-facing vulnerabilities—hiding applications from public view
• Advanced #threatprevention that blocks exploits before escalation
• Segmentation that prevents lateral movement from compromised accounts
• #DLP that detects and stops unauthorized data transfers
• Continuous monitoring that catches privilege escalation attemptsThe business impact?
Reduced attack surface, faster threat containment, lower risk of repeated incidents, and better security #ROI.When attackers can't see your applications, they can't exploit them.

We're thrilled to share this critical Brand Story conversation thanks to our friends at ReversingLabs 🙏
Your Business Apps Are Bringing Friends You Didn't Invite
Every commercial software application is a complex assembly of first-party, contracted, open source, and third-party code. But when #SolarWinds, #Kaseya, and #Ivanti happened, we learned that vendor questionnaires and contractual assurances offer little protection against supply chain compromises.
At #BlackHat2025, Saša Zdjelar, Chief Trust Officer at ReversingLabs, reveals how organizations can finally verify the integrity of #software from outside vendors—without relying on blind trust.
The game-changer: Comprehensive binary analysis that deconstructs any file into its components to:
• Detect malware, tampering, and embedded secrets
• Identify #vulnerabilities and insecure practices
• Uncover undocumented network connections
• Flag #compliance risks from restricted regions
This isn't just another policy checkbox—it's a true technical control that inspects the software itself, regardless of size or complexity.
Real-world applications:
• Procurement: Auto-scan all software before deployment
• Version Monitoring: Detect unexpected behavior changes between releases
• Critical Environments: Verify integrity before software enters OT, ICS, or financial systems
• Risk Management: Assess COTS software as part of ongoing vendor reviews
With regulations like EO 14028 and the EU's #CyberResilience Act demanding transparency, the ability to technically validate every application delivers both strategic protection and measurable benefits.

We're thrilled to share this critical Brand Story conversation thanks to our friends at ReversingLabs 🙏
Your Business Apps Are Bringing Friends You Didn't Invite
Every commercial software application is a complex assembly of first-party, contracted, open source, and third-party code. But when #SolarWinds, #Kaseya, and #Ivanti happened, we learned that vendor questionnaires and contractual assurances offer little protection against supply chain compromises.
At #BlackHat2025, Saša Zdjelar, Chief Trust Officer at ReversingLabs, reveals how organizations can finally verify the integrity of #software from outside vendors—without relying on blind trust.
The game-changer: Comprehensive binary analysis that deconstructs any file into its components to:
• Detect malware, tampering, and embedded secrets
• Identify #vulnerabilities and insecure practices
• Uncover undocumented network connections
• Flag #compliance risks from restricted regions
This isn't just another policy checkbox—it's a true technical control that inspects the software itself, regardless of size or complexity.
Real-world applications:
• Procurement: Auto-scan all software before deployment

How #AI Can Help Eliminate Alert Fatigue in #Cybersecurity
Security teams drowning in alerts finally have a lifeline that doesn't compromise their data sovereignty. At #BlackHatUSA 2025, #Crogl CEO monzy merza revealed how they're solving one of cybersecurity's most persistent challenges.
The harsh reality: Analysts routinely close hundreds of alerts with a single click—not from laziness, but from sheer necessity. As Merza notes, "When you look at the history of #breaches, the signal was there. And somebody ignored it."
Traditional approaches fail because they expect analysts to become "unicorns"—experts in multiple platforms while remembering complex query languages. Crogl's solution fundamentally reimagines this relationship between human intuition and #machineautomation.
Key innovations:
• Semantic knowledge graphs that map relationships across your entire security ecosystem
• Automated investigations using established kill chain methodologies
• Natural language processing that converts descriptions into executable security processes
• Privacy-first architecture that runs air-gapped with no internet dependencies • Response times reduced from weeks to minutes for complex threat huntingThe result?
#Analysts focus on strategic #threathunting while AI handles routine investigations—all without moving, duplicating, or exposing your data.📺 Watch the video: https://youtu.be/0GqPtPXD2ik

The Often-Overlooked Truth in #Cybersecurity: Seeing the Unseen in Vulnerability Management
Most successful breaches don't happen because defenders ignored known vulnerabilities. They happen because attackers exploited assets that organizations never knew existed.
HD Moore, founder and CEO of runZero and creator of #Metasploit, reveals the uncomfortable truth: organizations routinely miss half their actual attack surface. Through decades of penetration testing high-security environments, Moore discovered that traditional discovery methods only find properly managed systems while #shadowIT, legacy hardware, and misconfigured devices remain invisible.
Key insights from our conversation:
• When using attacker-grade discovery techniques, asset counts typically DOUBLE what organizations thought they had
• The industry's CVE obsession creates false security while real attacks exploit misconfigurations and zero-days
• Unknown assets—from IoT devices to forgotten servers—bypass even sophisticated security controls
• Traditional agent-based tools can't see what attackers see
#RunZero inverts the traditional model by starting with unauthenticated discovery that mirrors how attackers actually probe networks. This reveals the true attack surface and transforms vulnerability management from reactive patching to strategic risk reduction.

• When using attacker-grade discovery techniques, asset counts typically DOUBLE what organizations thought they had
• The industry's CVE obsession creates false security while real attacks exploit misconfigurations and zero-days
• Unknown assets—from IoT devices to forgotten servers—bypass even sophisticated security controls
• Traditional agent-based tools can't see what attackers see
#RunZero inverts the traditional model by starting with unauthenticated discovery that mirrors how attackers actually probe networks. This reveals the true attack surface and transforms vulnerability management from reactive patching to strategic risk reduction.
