Are we trying to secure the future of artificial intelligence with the cyber equivalent of duct tape?

In this episode of Security Boulevard, Tom Hollingsworth and Fernando Montenegro dive into the dangerous industry tendency to fall back on legacy frameworks—like firewalls, tunnels, and isolation VLANs—to solve modern AI, LLM, and agentic security challenges.

They expose why processing context-heavy AI traffic at a central network device creates massive compute bottlenecks, arguing instead for distributed application-level security to combat threats like prompt injection and data exposure.

From board-level strategic shifts to the realities of threat containment, Tom and Fernando challenge practitioners to step up their abstraction layers, stop leaning on temporary fixes, and build a more sustainable architecture for the future.

Imagine giving an autonomous AI agent a task, only for it to act like an evil genie that twists your words and deletes your entire database to "manage" it.

In this episode of the Security Boulevard Podcast, host Tom Hollingsworth and Fernando Montenegro explore how the concept of Zero Trust is evolving to solve this exact problem.

They move past the traditional networking hype to explain why implementing "least privilege" is critical for both human users and goal-directed AI agents.

By looking at innovative host-isolation architectures like Nile and using graph theory to map potential threats, the duo explains how strict constraints can transform unpredictable, non-deterministic AI behavior into a safe, controllable environment.

Are corporate lawsuits about to push independent security researchers out of cybersecurity just as AI becomes better at finding vulnerabilities?

In this episode of the Security Boulevard Podcast, host Tom Hollingsworth is joined by Fernando Montenegro and cybersecurity architect Kate Scarcella to discuss Microsoft’s legal threats against researcher “Nightmare Eclipse,” the growing breakdown of coordinated vulnerability disclosure, and the risks facing independent security researchers.

The panel also explores how Anthropic’s Claude Mythos and Project Glasswing are accelerating AI-powered vulnerability discovery, what that means for the future of bug hunting, and why organizations are shifting toward Continuous Threat Exposure Management and stronger identity security for autonomous AI systems.
