Agentic AI – The Autonomous Threat and the New Frontier of Defense
Generative AI is evolving from a helpful tool into an autonomous agent capable of planning and executing tasks, a shift that presents both immense opportunities and complex security challenges. In this episode, host Sharmin Jassal is joined by Andrew Milroy, distinguished analyst and founder of Veqtor8, to explore the profound impact of Agentic AI.
Andrew explains why the rush to adopt AI leaves security as an afterthought, exposing organisations to risks like prompt injection and model poisoning. We dive into how attackers are using these agents to create faster, more cunning phishing campaigns, and, crucially, how organisations can leverage Agentic AI themselves to create high-speed, adaptive security operations (SecOps) that close the gap on emerging threats.
