On the 32nd episode of Enterprise AI Defenders, hosts Evan Reiser (CEO, co-founder at Abnormal AI) and Mike Britton (CIO, Abnormal AI) talk with Yaron Levi, CISO at Dolby. They unpack the enduring basics of cyber, how agentic AI can help teams move faster, and why excellent security starts with the business mission. Yaroni argues that most incidents still trace to old problems and that progress in the AI era begins with operational discipline, explicit threat modeling, and automation, where it truly reduces risk. He lays out a pragmatic sequence that starts with business goals, maps how things can go wrong, selects countermeasures, and then reconciles ambitions with real budgets.

Quick hits from Yaron:

On AI’s role in defense at scale: “We need to be able to embrace and figure out how we can automate more, how we can leverage those technologies to help us defend better and really tackle that the technical debt mountain… maybe with some AI, agentic AI, maybe we have some chances to deal with it better.”

On why breaches still happen: “Unpatched systems, misconfigurations, compromised credentials, RDP, open RDP, the RDP that somebody left out there.”

On preventing AI agent blind spots: “Do you know what your inventory is? Back then it was devices, then cloud workloads and virtual machines and other Kubernetes or whatnot. And now it’s like agents, okay? If we’re going to suck at managing the agent’s inventory, the same way we [sucked at] managing, you know, device inventory, we are going to have a big problem.”
