Business Security Weekly (Audio)

The latest generation of AI models has collapsed the time from vulnerability discovery to weaponized exploit from weeks to minutes, and reactive, module-based tools built around static dashboards simply can't keep up.
In this episode, Tanium COO Matt Quinn joins Business Security Weekly to discuss Tanium Atlas, the new autonomous operating system for IT and security. Matt explains why "good enough" operations are now a liability, how Atlas turns a single operator into the equivalent of an entire team, giving organizations the speed, scale, and efficiency to match the pace of today's threat environment. He also breaks down why nearly two decades of real-time endpoint telemetry across more than 36 million endpoints is the foundation no AI model can replicate on its own.

The 2026 Verizon DBIR has arrived and the results are in...

Why most companies are still performing 'Security Theater'—checking boxes and hoping for the best—instead of driving genuine behavior change.
How Trust and Denial quietly fuel most disasters, why interactive training is the only way to make the lessons stick, and how leaders can scale this entire framework without needing a Hollywood budget.
