Threat Vector
Cybersecurity complexity is growing, and organizations are struggling to manage dozens of security tools while keeping up with evolving threats. In this episode of Threat Vector, host David Moulton speaks with Mark Hughes, Global Managing Partner of Cybersecurity Services at IBM, and Karim Temsamani, President of Next Generation Security at Palo Alto Networks, about a groundbreaking study from IBM’s Institute for Business Value.
They discuss how security platformization is transforming enterprise security, reducing mean time to detect incidents by 72 days, and driving a 4x ROI on cybersecurity investments. Learn how AI-driven security, automation, and consolidation are key to improving operational efficiency and strengthening security resilience.

Hacking Humans
On Hacking Humans, Dave Bittner, Joe Carrigan, and Maria Varmazis (also host of N2K's daily space podcast, T-Minus), are once again sharing the latest in social engineering scams, phishing schemes, and criminal exploits that are making headlines to help our audience become aware of what is out there. Our hosts start off with some follow up from listener Robert who writes in from the Great White North, who shares how he thinks the U.S. might be stuck in the past with payment tech. Joe's got two stories this week, both on financial crime—Thailand cutting power to Myanmar's billion-dollar scam hubs and the struggle to shut them down for good. Maria has the story of a job candidate who not only used AI-generated answers during a technical interview but also altered his appearance with software—marking the second time this has happened to the interviewer in just two months. Dave sits down with our guest Nati Tal, Head of Guardio Labs, as he is discussing the growing danger of homograph attacks. Our catch of the day comes from listener Kenneth, who got an alarming email from the PayPal Security Team—apparently, he just bought nearly $700 in Bitcoin.
