    "AI Agents: The Security Paradox - When Your Best Defense Becomes Your Biggest Threat

    AI agents are revolutionizing cybersecurity in contradictory ways. This episode explores how the same AI technology that enables companies like Picus Security to validate defenses against new threats in hours, instead of weeks, can also autonomously exploit vulnerabilities for profit. We examine why enterprises are hesitant to deploy AI agents at scale due to identity management challenges, the escalating war between publishers and AI scrapers (with blocking up 336%), practical strategies for  identifying truth when AI systems can be manipulated by their owners, and Anthropic's research showing AI can now find and exploit zero-day vulnerabilities in smart contracts autonomously. The bottom line: AI capabilities are advancing faster than our governance frameworks, creating both unprecedented defensive capabilities and entirely new attack vectors that security teams must navigate.
