Summary
Big thank you to Radware for sponsoring this video. Download the Radware Global Threat Analysis Report 2026 here: https://www.radware.com/threat-analys... In this interview, David Bombal sits down with Radware's Pascal Geenens to unpack the realities of the latest global threat report. The cybersecurity landscape has experienced a major paradigm shift: the era of "Vibe Hacking" is here. Pascal explains how Agentic AI, the Model Context Protocol (MCP), and uncensored offline models (like DeepSeek-R1) have created a "digital garden of Eden" for adversaries. Discover how novice script kiddies are now use the power of AI hacking which once strictly reserved for nation-state actors. We dive deep into the automation of cyber attacks, the rise of AI-driven tools like Xantarox AI, the critical dangers of AI-generated code vulnerabilities, and why traditional defense mechanisms are struggling to keep up with non-deterministic AI threats. // Pascal Geenens’ SOCIAL // LinkedIn: / Website: https://www.radware.com/ // David's SOCIAL // Discord: discord.com/invite/usKSyzb Twitter: www.twitter.com/davidbombal Instagram: www.instagram.com/davidbombal LinkedIn: www.linkedin.com/in/davidbombal Facebook: www.facebook.com/davidbombal.co TikTok: tiktok.com/@davidbombal YouTube: / @davidbombal Spotify: open.spotify.com/show/3f6k6gE...
