AI for security, security for AI: inside the next wave of cyber innovation | The Next Big Thing

AI is transforming cybersecurity—but it’s also creating new vulnerabilities. In this episode of The Next Big Thing, host Chris Gannatti is joined by Sachin Bansal and Pratik Mehta to explore how AI is reshaping both sides of the cyber landscape. From automating security operations to securing LLMs and agentic systems, they unpack how cyber teams are adapting—and what investors need to know. The conversation also covers the latest on Wiz, CrowdStrike, the rise of platform consolidation, and how human risk remains cybersecurity’s biggest wildcard.
