Generative AI is poised to revolutionize vulnerability discovery in critical infrastructure, but will it actually fix the problem, or just shift the burden?
The recent AI Cybersecurity Challenge (AIxCC), a two-year competition sponsored by the US Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) and Advanced Research Projects Agency for Health (ARPA-H), crowned winners whose AI systems autonomously discovered and patched zero-day flaws in real-world code.
Now, with models potentially going open-source, the implications for defenders, attackers and policymakers are seismic.
In this episode, we sat down with Taesoo Kim, the leader of Team Atlanta, the AIxCC winning team, and Andrew Carney, program manager for the AIxCC at DARPA and ARPA-H.
In the interview (13.56), they discuss why the commercialization of GenAI-powered vulnerability scanning tools could be just around the corner and how "self-healing infrastructure" might soon become a reality.

AI: The good, the bad and the ugly. The team discuss AI’s evolution over the past six months.
Since the launch of ChatGPT in November 2022 the cybersecurity world has been abuzz with talk of AI and its usefulness as well as the threat it poses.
In this episode of the podcast the team discuss how cybersecurity vendors are leveraging AI, what threats AI has brought to the technology landscape and what to be cautious of when using large language models.
Beth Maundrill also sits down with Sergey Shykevich, Threat Intelligence Group Manager at Check Point Research, to dispel some of the myths around threat actors' use of AI and what Check Point has observed over the past six months. Shykevich also provides his thoughts on the future of AI in cybersecurity.
