Big thank you to Cisco for sponsoring my trip to Cisco Live Vegas
In this video, we sit down to discuss the rapidly evolving world of cybersecurity, AI, and how an Agentic SOC is becoming the standard for modern defense. We cover the massive opportunity in the industry with over 4 million open cyber jobs, why mastering Splunk is a critical career move in 2026, and how you can get started for free. We also unpack emerging threats like Mythos class attackers, vulnerabilities in LLMs and MCP servers, and how the integration of Cisco Data Fabric and Splunk is helping organizations defend critical infrastructure against automated exploits at machine speed.
