The cybersecurity industry has spent decades trying to detect bad things.
I think that model is backwards.
What if we assume everything is malicious, then rebuild files into something safe?
That is the idea behind Cybersecurity Upside Down.
In this conversation with Cybercrime Magazine, I talk about AI born threats, Deep CDR, protecting critical infrastructure, and why we sent an OPSWAT Kiosk more than 100,000 feet into near space.
And yes, cybersecurity can actually be fun.

Silk Road 2.0 emerged just weeks after the FBI shut down the original Silk Road. Its former operator, Blake Benthall, was later arrested—and today, he’s the founder and CEO of Fathom(x).
In this episode of Cybercrime Radio, host Scott Schober talks with Blake about his time running Silk Road 2.0, his arrest, the lessons he learned, and his journey from the dark web to where he is today.

AI is changing cybersecurity on both sides of the fight.
As Sophos CEO @chiesennegs shares with Cybercrime Magazine, attackers are already putting AI to work. The question is whether defenders can keep pace.
