Everything is getting much worse, much faster

Risky Business Features

Show Notes

In this podcast Brad Arkin joins James Wilson to talk about how the fear of being left behind in the AI era means enterprises are taking risks that would have been considered insane just a couple of years ago.

Fears around outages or being hacked have been trumped by fears of being labelled an AI laggard.

So where are we all going? Say hello to tech debt-riddled, vibe-coded apps, crazy dependencies on AI providers, and an emerging threat landscape that can’t be mitigated by a contemporary SOC. Sounds like fun, eh?
