I’ve been fortunate to be elbow deep in technology for more years than I care to remember, and these days am involved in both tactical and strategic discussions with clients across the spectrum of industries talking maturity, risk, and how to effect change.
Oh, and I just got called a Scottish Security Warlock....I’m kinda digging it.
Happy to connect, to talk and discuss what we can ALL do to effect change in this world, to collaborate and to communicate in a way that benefits all….I’d prefer folks didn’t use this forum to sell me certs, software or anything that has a hooded matrix theme (I DO come with a warning label...)

Agentic AI: Understanding and Securing the Next Frontier of Intelligent Systems
Imagine giving your intern not just access to your computer, but also your credit card, API keys, and permission to make decisions on your behalf—that's essentially what we're doing with agentic AI. Unlike traditional AI that focus on classification predicting outcomes, these systems actively take actions, use tools, and pursue goals with minimal human oversight. This creates complex new attack vectors: agents can be tricked into transferring funds, manipulated through crafted inputs, sent astray by misinformation and hallucinations from another agent in the chain, or develop unexpected behaviors that sidestep our security assumptions. We'll dive into real-world threat scenarios, explore why traditional security models fall short, and discuss practical approaches for containing and governing the next frontier of intelligent systems.
