Agentic AI doesn’t just call your APIs; it creates them, connects them, and expands your attack surface faster than most teams can map it. We open with a frank look at autonomous agents, the Model Context Protocol (MCP), and why weak authentication, misconfigurations, and shadow APIs are still the easiest doors to pry open. Then we get tactical: continuous discovery, behavioral analytics, context-driven access, and the governance you need to monitor what AI spins up and revoke what shouldn’t exist.

From there, we shift to the CISSP core: end of life, end of support, and the asset retention practices that keep you compliant and resilient. We define the terms, share real-world pitfalls, and outline practical sunsetting plans that include data migration, isolation when necessary, and rock-solid disposal. Documentation is the quiet hero—config backups, change logs, destruction certificates, and retention schedules shaped with legal and compliance. Over-retention inflates breach impact and cost; under-retention invites fines and operational gaps. We walk through legal holds, immutable backups, and the cost conversations that stop data hoarding.

By the end, you’ll have a clear blueprint: integrate lifecycle management into procurement, track vendor notices, consider extended or third-party support when needed, and use compensating controls for what must linger. Train your teams, audit your process, and map ownership so you can prove what you keep, why you keep it, and when you delete it. If you’re ready to tighten API security and retire legacy systems without breaking the business, this one’s for you. Subscribe, share with your team, and leave a quick review to help others find the show. What legacy system will you decommission first?
