Asymmetric Data: The New Challenge for API Security In this A10 Networks video, "APIs are the Language of AI: Protecting Them is Critical," security experts Jamison Utter and Carlo Alpuerto discuss the unique challenges of securing AI-driven data exchanges. Unlike traditional API interactions—where a request for a video clearly results in a video—AI interactions are defined by a "phenomenal" level of asymmetry. A tiny text request can trigger a massive, unpredictable response, making traditional security prediction models nearly obsolete.

Why AI agents don’t understand good or bad.

Trust: The ultimate defense against cyber deception?

On this episode of The Cybersecurity Defenders Podcast, we revisit the 2025 predictions shared by our guests throughout the year. From attackers and defenders to AI and the broader security industry, these forecasts capture what experts expected was coming next. Rather than judging accuracy - which is still too early to assess - we're examining the predictions themselves: where they aligned, how they clustered, and what those patterns reveal about the industry’s mindset as this year came to a close. Free from hindsight bias, this episode explores what remained uncertain as we entered 2026.

This week on the podcast, we cover a wave of attacks against network edge equipment and internet-exposed systems including an update on the recently patched Firebox 0-Day. After that, we cover two stories on browser extensions siphoning off data and making unwanted modifications to victim’s web browsing activity.
