    The Invisible Beast

    In Episode 3 of Human Cyber, host Max Margolis is joined by Jai Minton (Cyber SME at Huntress) to unpack one of the most dangerous and misunderstood threats in security today: software supply chain attacks. Using the metaphor of a poisoned water supply, Max and Jai break down how attackers don’t come at you directly — they taint something you already trust, and the contamination flows downstream to you, your team, and your customers.

    The Human Firewall

    Episode Description: "In this episode, Max Margolis tackles 'The Human Firewall' - why people are called the weakest link in security and what we can actually do about it. He breaks down why traditional security awareness training fails (boring compliance theater with no reinforcement), explores the psychology of why smart people click phishing links (spoiler: curiosity is a powerful weapon), discusses insider threats both accidental and malicious, and provides practical guidance on building security culture that actually works. If you've ever wondered why security training feels useless or how to get your team to actually care about security, this episode is for you."

    This Artificial Life

    Welcome to Human Cyber! In this inaugural episode, host Max Margolis cuts through the AI hype to reveal what generative AI actually means for cyber security. Using the metaphor of a compass, Max explains why AI is a tool that guides direction but doesn’t make decisions - and why treating it as a magic solution leads to failure. He tackles the AI buzzword problem plaguing security products, explores how both attackers and defenders are really using these tools, and provides practical guidance for professionals, organizations, and everyday users.” Music provided by Pixabay
