    Ransomware whack-a-mole, AI agents as insider threats and how to hack a humanoid robot

    Between LockBit, RansomHub and BlackSuit, law enforcement racked up some big wins against ransomware gangs last year. So why aren’t the attacks letting up?     In this episode of Security Intelligence, panelists JR Rao, Jeff Crume and Michelle Alavarez unpack what the state of ransomware in 2025 really looked like, and why things haven’t slowed things down as much as we might hope.      Then, we turn to identity security and cloud breaches as we consider the striking case of Zestix, the lone threat actor linked to breaches at 50 global enterprises. And all he needed were some passwords.      From there, we look at what the future of hacking might hold. Palo Alto’s Wendi Whitmore issued a warning about how AI agents could become devastating insider threats, and security researchers at GEEKCon demonstrated how AI-powered robots can be hijacked using voice commands alone, turning prompt injection into a physical-world security risk.     It’s a niche scenario today. But is it also a preview of what happens when AI, robotics and operational technology collide?    Listen to Security Intelligence to find out.     00:00 -- Introduction  01:05 -- Ransomware in 2026   09:26 -- Zestix linked to 50 hacks   18:42 -- AI agents as insider threats   31:20 -- Hacking humanoid robots    The opinions expressed in this podcast are solely those of the participants and do not necessarily reflect the views of IBM or any other organization or entity.    Subscribe to the IBM Think newsletter → https://www.ibm.com/account/reg/us-en/signup?formid=news-urx-52120  Explore the podcast → https://www.ibm.com/think/podcasts/security-intelligence

    A new take on bug bounties, AI red teams and our New Year’s resolutions

    Explore the podcast → https://www.ibm.com/think/podcasts/security-intelligence Say your cloud storage service gets hacked. Say the attackers broke in by exploiting a vulnerability in an open-source library your organization used to build the service. Who owns that vulnerability?   Microsoft is trying to clear some of the smog obscuring the software supply chain by expanding its bug bounty program to include some third-party code that affects it services. In this episode of Security Intelligence, panelists Jeff Crume, Nick Bradley and Claire Nuñez discuss what that move means for cybersecurity responsibility models going forward.   We also analyze how a three-year-old LastPass breach is still giving cybercriminals new credentials to steal. Turns out “harvest now, decrypt later” isn’t just a quantum concern.  Plus: OpenAI fights prompt injections with an automated, AI-powered red team, hackers have a new tool to make ClickFix attacks even easier and we share the New Year’s Resolutions we hope organizations will make in 2026.  All that and more on Security Intelligence.  00:00 -- Introduction  1:11 -- Cybersecurity resolutions  6:51 -- Microsoft’s new bug bounties  14:00 -- The LastPass breach’s long tail  26:07 -- Automated red teaming  33:22 -- ClickFix-as-a-service  The opinions expressed in this podcast are solely those of the participants and do not necessarily reflect the views of IBM or any other organization or entity.  Subscribe for AI and security updates → https://www.ibm.com/account/reg/us-en/signup?formid=news-urx-52120
