Don't use AI to replace humans, use it to supercharge them. ⚡️

In this week's episode, Phillip Wylie joins us to talk about the intersection of AI, red teaming, and career growth in offensive security.

AI can make existing tools like Burp Suite and Kado automate the tedious (like encoding SQL injections) while letting humans do what they do best.

Do we even know what we should be defending anymore? 🤷

CISO's are swimming in alerts and layered tools, yet somehow still asking the same two things: are we at risk, and can we respond fast enough?

Ron's sitting down with Tony Velleca, CEO of CyberProof and former CISO for a conversation on simplifying security with a threat-led defense strategy. Tony’s seen both sides of the boardroom table, and he’s got a fresh way to bring clarity to the chaos.

If you’re tired of security theater and ready for something actually useful, this is the livestream you don’t want to miss.

Join us TOMORROW, Wednesday, September 17th at 12pm ET / 9am PT.

If you’re not investing in yourself, who will? 💡

You can love your job and your team, but at the end of the day, companies make tough calls. Layoffs aren’t personal, they’re business. That’s why you need to be the CEO of You.

From showing up daily to building Simply Cyber into a thriving global community, Gerald Auger proves that consistency and self-investment pay off

AI coding assistants are transforming software development at lightning speed, but every line of AI-generated code could be a new doorway for attackers. 🚨

Varun Badhwar, Co-Founder & CEO of Endor Labs, joins us to discuss how CISOs and AppSec leaders can stay ahead: securing AI-written code, protecting legacy apps, and enabling safe AI adoption without slowing innovation.

Tune in live on Tuesday, September 23rd, at 1:30 PM ET / 10:30 AM PT to join the conversation.

Reliable AI doesn’t happen without guardrails. 🛡️

In this week’s episode, we explore why constraints aren’t roadblocks, they’re the very framework that makes trust possible.

From enforcing boundaries to building in reasoning checks, these design principles are just as vital as testing and observability.

Joining us is Vineet, CEO of Cogent Security, who shares his perspective on why the right guardrails are essential to the future of AI.

What if I told you someone could steal your data today… and just chill for years before breaking into it? 😅

That’s not sci-fi. That’s real life.

The encryption we all trust (your logins, your work chats, your sensitive files) t’s got an expiration date. And there’s tech on the horizon that could smash it wide open.

The clock’s ticking, Hacker Valley Fam. Are you watching it? ⏰

AI is neither friend nor foe... it's both! 🤝

In this week’s episode, Ron's reminding us to reclaim your focus, your intuition, and your edge when it comes to AI. Don't miss this week's episode for fresh conversation on how AI is a tool, not the whole toolbox.

In what ways are YOU over-relying on AI?

There’s a reason people stop scrolling when Gerarld Auger goes live. 🔥

It’s not just the threat intel... it’s the energy, the rhythm, the release of inhibitions.

Gerry didn’t set out to build a media company, but when you stream every weekday, build a global audience, and launch your own cyber conference, the label starts to fit.

Join us LIVE Wednesday, Sept 4th at 12pm ET / 9am PT 📆

This isn’t about becoming a creator, it’s about redefining how we show up in cyber.

This breach? Man… it hits different. 😞

In my last breakdown of my Top Breaches of 2025 series, I'm covering an incident that involves medical privacy, speed under pressure, and lessons every security leader should take seriously.

I'm talking about what happened, how the response played out, and the 3 moves you can make today to keep it from happening to your org.

Would your current plan hold up under this kind of pressure?

There’s a debate heating up in cybersecurity: should AI replace Tier 1 and Tier 2 analysts? 🔥

Nobody signs up to be a Tier 1 analyst forever. The burnout is real, the false positives are relentless, and the repetitive tasks drain some of the brightest minds in the field.

AI might just be the relief analysts need, taking on the repetitive, frustrating tasks so humans can focus on what truly matters.

Do you think AI is ready to take on this role?
