AI’s Role in Cybersecurity: From EDR Evolution to Generative AI Threats and Supply Chain Risks

In this special Black Hat edition of the Breaking Badness Cybersecurity Podcast, Part 1 of a 5 Part Series, we dive deep into how artificial intelligence is transforming the cybersecurity landscape. Our guests—Mark Wojtasiak (VP of Product at Vectra AI), Carl Froggett (CIO at Deep Instinct), Dan Fernandez (Staff Product Manager at Chainguard), and Marcus Ludwig (CEO of Ticura)—join us to explore the evolution of Endpoint Detection and Response (EDR), the growing threats posed by generative AI, and the complexities of securing AI in supply chains. With AI becoming a tool for both attackers and defenders, this episode uncovers the ongoing "AI arms race" and highlights the urgent need for a more preventative approach to cybersecurity.
