Reviewing RSA 2025 with Jason Haddix

What really happened at RSA 2024?

Daniel Miessler and Jason Haddix break it down.

Fresh off a whirlwind RSA week, Daniel sits down with Jason Haddix (Arcanum Information Security) to talk about what mattered—beyond the show floor noise. From off-site innovation summits to real-world AI implementation, this deep dive covers:

-Where the real innovation happened (hint: not on the show floor)
-Key takeaways from the OpenAI and Airbnb AI Security events
-Jason’s talk on AI pentesting methodology and the Prompt Injection Taxonomy
-The future of cybersecurity moats and the risk of AI-native disruption
-Why agents aren’t the main character—data is -DARPA's AIxCC competition and the rise of Cyber Reasoning Systems
-Challenges with evals, autonomous security workflows, and VDP backlash -Behind the scenes at RSA: puppies, parties, burnout, and brutal honesty

They also explore content creation, the future of platform-native context, and why being opinionated (with receipts) matters more than ever in security and tech.

The Biggest Advantage in Machine Learning Will Come From Superior Coverage, Not Superior Analysis

The Biggest Advantage in Machine Learning Will Come From Superior Coverage, Not Superior Analysis

Many people, in many fields, think Machine Learning won't replace their analysts because their humans are better than an algorithm. But it's not just about side-by-side comparisons. The bigger question is, "what percentage of the data can humans actually look at?", and the answer to that question (a tiny fraction) is the reason ML will be so helpful.Become a Member: https://danielmiessler.com/upgradeSee omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
