On this episode of The Cybersecurity Defenders Podcast, we speak with George Gerchow, Head of Trust at MongoDB, about the current narrative surrounding AI in cybersecurity.

George challenges the dominant focus on AI as a threat and instead highlights its potential as a powerful ally in defending against sophisticated cyberattacks. We explore how AI-driven defense strategies are reshaping the landscape of proactive threat detection and automated response mechanisms, offering a fresh perspective on balancing security innovation with risk management.
