Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

Mythos smythos! How to find 0day with lesser models
Q: What is Iron Curtain and why is it important?
Iron Curtain is a sandbox-like framework that uses natural-language policy descriptions to govern what an agent can do, enabling a secure, auditable harness around model-driven actions and enabling reproducible vulnerability discovery with strong containment.
Mythos smythos! How to find 0day with lesser models
Q: What prompted the shift from building secure systems to using AI to find vulnerabilities?
The guest explains that as he built code and deployed it, he worried about vulnerabilities being introduced by gaps in line-by-line review. AI-enabled tooling offered a way to review and test more comprehensively, driving a shift from pure defensive focus to vulnerability discovery and verification through orchestration and harnesses.
They don't break in, they log in. What's an enterprise to do?
Q: What makes identity the new attack surface and how should enterprises start addressing phishing and social engineering at scale?
The conversation emphasizes moving toward phishing-resistant, hardware-bound credentials and reducing reliance on user-remembered secrets, while tightening edge cases like device restoration and help-desk processes; organizations should begin by deploying strong, cryptographic MFA; ensure recovery workflows are tightly controlled; and audit password vault access and group permissions for multi-user credentials.
