Security | Threat Detection | Cyberattacks | DevSecOps | Compliance

Richard Bejtlich sits down with Jean Schaffer, Corelight’s Federal CTO, to discuss the unique hurdles facing government agencies in an era of escalating state-sponsored threats. Jean highlights the persistent challenge of legacy IT infrastructure and the "technical debt" that complicates modernization efforts across the Department of Defense, the intelligence community, and the civilian sector. The conversation explores the strategic shift toward cloud adoption as a means to decommission vulnerable on-premise hardware and the evolving "whole of nation" defense strategy that requires deeper public-private partnerships.

Meet Forescout VistaroAI, the first skills‑based agentic AI for cybersecurity. Forescout VistaroAI I thinks like a security expert, not a chatbot. It uses cybersecurity‑specific, preprogrammed skills to analyze anomalies, interpret posture changes, and automatically highlight affected assets. It eliminates the need for prompt engineering, providing role-based automation with human-in-the-loop control. The result is faster, more accurate decisions, and clearer starting points for real investigations.
