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.

The Information Heist: Cracking the Code on Infostealers
With 4.3 million devices infected and 3.9 billion stolen passwords shared by hackers, infostealers have emerged as one of the dominant malware threats of 2024.
According to recent reports from Kela and Huntress, these stealthy attackers are now involved in one in four cyber-attacks, making them a major concern for individuals and organizations alike.
In our latest podcast episode, we take a closer look at the rise of infostealers and what you can do to protect yourself from these insidious threats.
You will hear from Leonid Rozenberg, Cybercrime and Threat Intelligence Researcher at Hudosn Rock about:
Infostealers’ ability to steal passwords stored in browsers and other malware features that most people don’t usually talk about (7:24)
The latest trends in infostealer development, deployment and distribution in 2025 (26:40)
How organizations and individuals can prevent and mitigate the infostealer threat (32:07)
