The hidden perimeter - Securing the future of Mythos AI
"Companies have been very quick to implement AI but not necessarily understand the true risks or the necessary guardrails that have to be in place."
Episode Chapters
[00:46] Understanding Mythos and Agentic Systems
[02:18] A Double-Edged Sword for Vulnerability Management
[03:44] The Death of the 7-Day Patch Cycle
[05:58] Addressing the AI Governance Gap
[07:07] Is the Sky Falling? How Organizations Should Respond
[09:44] Best Strategies for Healthcare Organizations
AI is changing rapidly. It is moving from a tool that humans must direct into an autonomous force that can reason and execute workflows on its own. In this episode, Redox Security Advisor Ben Doyle joins the conversation for a dive deep into Mythos, a powerful AI-native technology that has caught the attention of the security world. Mythos represents an incredible asset for automated vulnerability discovery and advanced pen testing. However, it also introduces major new risks for the healthcare sector.
Ben breaks down how Mythos autonomously chains together known and novel exploits. It operates at a speed no human team can match, discovering tens of thousands of vulnerabilities in just its first few weeks of testing. We discuss why traditional patch management timelines and SLAs are no longer safe. We also look at how major cloud hyperscalers are responding to this tech, and outline the exact steps healthcare organizations need to take right now. Learn how to upgrade your internal governance, shrink your external asset inventory, and protect vital patient data in the age of autonomous AI.

A Compromised Customer - Balancing Risk and Response
"Security doesn't stop with one customer. You have to think about all of them."
[01:18] Responding to customer compromises with care and context
[02:46] Protecting all customers when one is compromised
[03:41] How organizations learn about breaches in real time
[05:45] Containing risk by pausing and managing connections
[08:23] Adjusting response based on severity of compromise
[12:18] Safely restoring connections after containment
[15:15] Building runbooks and preparing for future incidents
When a customer is compromised, the impact rarely stays contained to one organization. This conversation with Trevor Wilson explores how teams respond in real time, often with limited information and increasing pressure from other connected customers. He shares how organizations identify breaches, verify what's actually happening, and make fast decisions to contain risk without overreacting.
Every step requires balance between speed and caution, which is why they stress the importance of preparation. Having things established such as clear roles and practiced responses helps teams move with confidence when incidents occur.
