Agentic AI is now a part of the team, so how do you feel about it? On this episode of Security Noise, Geoff sits down with TrustedSec CTO Justin Elze to dig into how AI fits into offensive security. They explore the new risks introduced by agentic tooling, the practical ways AI is already being used in penetration tests, and how red teams are putting models to work for broader coverage, payload generation, and vulnerability research.

Let's talk home automations, where the lights, the locks, the thermostat, and the doorbell all have opinions (and an internet connection). On this episode, Geoff and Skyler sit down to chat with TrustedSec's Adam Compton, a Principal Security Consultant and resident "Automator." Even though Adam resides in a farmhouse built in the 1800s, his home is anything but outdated. From automatic window blinds to driveway gates, Adam has automated just about everything he can. Listen as we discuss favorite websites, resources, and hardware hacks for all your home automation needs. Skyler and Adam go on a verbal side-quest to discuss going fully local when it comes to smart home assistants. Join us for another fun episode that just might have you saying, "Alexa, you're fired!"

It's a dramatic ending... of Season 8! On this episode of Security Noise, we are talking about the metaphorical soap opera that AI created. Since OpenAI was founded in 2015 as a non-profit AI lab, it has brought on dramatic interactions between its founders, culminating in a lawsuit in which Elon Musk sued cofounders Sam Altman and Greg Brockman over claims that OpenAI has "betrayed" its founding mission. We talk about allllll the drama in this season finale, joined by TrustedSec's Advisory Solutions Director Alex Hamerstone, entertaining the implications of the recent OpenAI trial and the BIG personalities that are shaping AI's future. Who will have control over that future? Investors, non-profits, founders, or giant tech platforms? And what does that mean for the rest of us, beyond Silicon Valley?
