Agent Zero: The New Era of Autonomous Cybercrime
Description
This episode explores how the widespread deployment of agentic AI is fundamentally redefining enterprise security by creating fully autonomous, adaptive, and scalable threats that act with growing authority to execute multi-step operations and interact with real systems. We analyze how this shift has industrialized cybercrime, allowing automated operations to orchestrate ransomware and launch hyper-personalized social engineering campaigns that blend malicious actions with normal business workflows. The discussion focuses on the urgent need for organizations to move from reactive defense to anticipatory resilience, securing the AI supply chain, implementing AI workflow guardrails, and treating autonomous agents as accountable identities to survive this rapidly escalating threat landscape.
