I explain why relying on phishing training is obsolete. Agentic AI isn't just sending smarter emails: it’s an autonomous, self-correcting threat that weaponises human trust at machine speed. My GRC work shows how these agents systematically bypass third-party controls and achieve military-grade coordination across IT and OT, demanding an urgent and autonomous shift in our defence and governance models.

In this work, a device-independent quantum random number generator (QRNG) utilizing Hong-Ou-Mandel (HOM) interference and entangled photon pairs is designed and validated. Polarization-entangled photons are produced by the experimental setup using a 405 nm laser and a BiBO crystal; randomness is verified by quantum state tomography and the violation of CHSH inequality. After being created, post-processed using Toeplitz hashing, and evaluated against NIST statistical standards, two datasets totaling more than 4.5 million bits were shown to be uniform and unpredictable.
