    Michael Erquitt - The Future of Security Champions in an AI World

    In this special episode of The Security Champions Podcast, Michael Burch passes the hosting reins to Security Journey senior security engineer Michael Erquitt. Together, they reflect on the podcast’s evolution and explore how the role of the security champion is changing in an AI-driven world. As developers increasingly work alongside AI agents, and more employees gain the ability to build software, security champions must expand beyond traditional secure coding education to influence workflows, architecture, governance, risk, and the human-AI relationship. They also examine how champions can help teams integrate security directly into AI-enabled workflows rather than treating it as an afterthought. ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~ Podcast sponsored by Security Journey, Secure Coding Training for Developers and Everyone in the SDLC.
