In this episode, host Kim Coombes is joined by security experts John Chirillo and Rob Di Girolamo, along with Microsoft Security expert Robin Camirand, to unpack the most important insights from the RSAC 2026 Conference. The discussion covers the rapid rise of Agentic AI security, the need to defend at machine speed, and the industry’s shift toward active defense as traditional response models struggle to keep up. The team also explores the growing importance of post-quantum cryptography as organizations prepare for the next phase of cryptographic risk. Throughout the conversation, the panel reflects on RSAC’s defining theme, the “power of community,” and why collective defense is essential as threats become faster, more automated, and more complex. Whether you’re tracking AI-driven risks, planning for quantum readiness, or looking for clear takeaways from RSAC 2026, this episode delivers practical insights from experienced security leaders.
