  • Inside the DARPA AI Cyber Challenge: Securing Tomorrow’s Critical Infrastructure Through AI and Healthy Competition | An RSAC Conference 2025 Conversation with Andrew Carney | On Location Coverage with Sean Martin and Marco Ciappelli
    Apr 28 2025
    During RSAC Conference 2025, Andrew Carney, Program Manager at DARPA, and (remotely via video) Dr. Kathleen Fisher, Professor at Tufts University and Program Manager for the AI Cyber Challenge (AIxCC), guide attendees through an immersive experience called Northbridge—a fictional city designed to showcase the critical role of AI in securing infrastructure through the DARPA-led AI Cyber Challenge.Inside Northbridge: The Stakes Are RealNorthbridge simulates the future of cybersecurity, blending AI, infrastructure, and human collaboration. It’s not just a walkthrough — it’s a call to action. Through simulated attacks on water systems, healthcare networks, and cyber operations, visitors witness firsthand the tangible impacts of vulnerabilities in critical systems. Dr. Fisher emphasizes that the AI Cyber Challenge isn’t theoretical: the vulnerabilities competitors find and fix directly apply to real open-source software relied on by society today.The AI Cyber Challenge: Pairing Generative AI with Cyber ReasoningThe AI Cyber Challenge (AIxCC) invites teams from universities, small businesses, and consortiums to create cyber reasoning systems capable of autonomously identifying and fixing vulnerabilities. Leveraging leading foundation models from Anthropic, Google, Microsoft, and OpenAI, the teams operate with tight constraints—working with limited time, compute, and LLM credits—to uncover and patch vulnerabilities at scale. Remarkably, during semifinals, teams found and fixed nearly half of the synthetic vulnerabilities, and even discovered a real-world zero-day in SQLite.Building Toward DEFCON Finals and BeyondThe journey doesn’t end at RSA. As the teams prepare for the AIxCC finals at DEFCON 2025, DARPA is increasing the complexity of the challenge—and the available resources. Beyond the competition, a core goal is public benefit: all cyber reasoning systems developed through AIxCC will be open-sourced under permissive licenses, encouraging widespread adoption across industries and government sectors.From Competition to CollaborationCarney and Fisher stress that the ultimate victory isn’t in individual wins, but in strengthening cybersecurity collectively. Whether securing hospitals, water plants, or financial institutions, the future demands cooperation across public and private sectors.The Northbridge experience offers a powerful reminder: resilience in cybersecurity is built not through fear, but through innovation, collaboration, and a relentless drive to secure the systems we all depend on.___________Guest: Andrew Carney, AI Cyber Challenge Program Manager, Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency (DARPA) | https://www.linkedin.com/in/andrew-carney-945458a6/Hosts:Sean Martin, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine | Website: https://www.seanmartin.comMarco Ciappelli, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine | Website: https://www.marcociappelli.com______________________Episode SponsorsThreatLocker: https://itspm.ag/threatlocker-r974Akamai: https://itspm.ag/akamailbwcBlackCloak: https://itspm.ag/itspbcwebSandboxAQ: https://itspm.ag/sandboxaq-j2enArcher: https://itspm.ag/rsaarchwebDropzone AI: https://itspm.ag/dropzoneai-641ISACA: https://itspm.ag/isaca-96808ObjectFirst: https://itspm.ag/object-first-2gjlEdera: https://itspm.ag/edera-434868___________ResourcesThe DARPA AIxCC Experience at RSAC 2025 Innovation Sandbox: https://www.rsaconference.com/usa/programs/sandbox/darpaLearn more and catch more stories from RSAC Conference 2025 coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/rsac25___________KEYWORDSandrew carney, kathleen fisher, marco ciappelli, sean martin, darpa, aixcc, cybersecurity, rsac 2025, defcon, ai cybersecurity, event coverage, on location, conference______________________Catch all of our event coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/technology-and-cybersecurity-conference-coverageWant to tell your Brand Story Briefing as part of our event coverage?

  • Why CISOs Should Still Say Yes to the Role—Even Now | A RSAC Conference 2025 Conversation with Tim Brown | On Location Coverage with Sean Martin and Marco Ciappelli
    Apr 24 2025
    In this Chats on the Road to RSAC 2025, , Sean Martin and Marco Ciappelli connect with Tim Brown, Chief Information Security Officer at SolarWinds, to unpack the critical issues facing CISOs today—and why the role remains worth pursuing.Brown is participating in multiple sessions at RSAC Conference 2025, including the CISO Bootcamp and Cyber Leaders Forum. Both are closed-door conversations designed to surface real concerns in a confidential, supportive setting. These aren’t theoretical discussions—they’re rooted in hard-earned experience. Brown, who has faced high-profile scrutiny and legal fallout from a past incident at SolarWinds, brings a uniquely personal perspective to these sessions.He points out that fear and hesitation are keeping many deputy CISOs from stepping up into the top role. His message to them: don’t be afraid of the position. Despite the weight of responsibility, the role offers real influence, the ability to shape enterprise architecture, and the opportunity to drive meaningful business decisions. Brown emphasizes the importance of community support and collective growth, noting that the cybersecurity industry—still relatively young—is maturing and finding its footing when it comes to accountability and resilience.Beyond leadership development, mental health and stress management are key themes in the Cyber Leaders Forum. Brown acknowledges the toll the job can take, even sharing that his own health suffered despite thinking he was managing stress well. This honest reflection opens the door for deeper conversations about personal well-being in high-pressure roles.He’s also appearing at the Cloud Security Alliance Summit with Chris Hoff, Chief Security Officer at LastPass, where they’ll discuss incident response and field questions from the audience. On Wednesday, Brown joins a breakfast session with Tactic and Hyperwise, guiding attendees through a crisis simulation based on lessons from the Sunburst attack. His focus? Helping others avoid being unprepared in a moment of chaos.From insider threat modeling to supply chain transparency and the challenges of monitoring runtime behavior, Brown is clear-eyed about where CISOs need to focus next.This episode isn’t just a preview of conference sessions—it’s a call to future security leaders to lean in, not back.___________Guest: Tim Brown, CISO, Solarwinds | On LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/tim-brown-ciso/Hosts:Sean Martin, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine | Website: https://www.seanmartin.comMarco Ciappelli, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine | Website: https://www.marcociappelli.com___________Episode SponsorsThreatLocker: https://itspm.ag/threatlocker-r974Akamai: https://itspm.ag/akamailbwcBlackCloak: https://itspm.ag/itspbcwebSandboxAQ: https://itspm.ag/sandboxaq-j2enArcher: https://itspm.ag/rsaarchwebDropzone AI: https://itspm.ag/dropzoneai-641ISACA: https://itspm.ag/isaca-96808ObjectFirst: https://itspm.ag/object-first-2gjlEdera: https://itspm.ag/edera-434868___________ResourcesRSAC Session: CLF Ask Me Anything Session with Tim Brown, CISO, SolarWinds: https://path.rsaconference.com/flow/rsac/us25/FullAgenda/page/catalog/session/1739404173721001x1MHRSAC Session: CISO Boot Camp Exclusive Fireside Chat with Tim Brown, CISO, SolarWinds: https://path.rsaconference.com/flow/rsac/us25/FullAgenda/page/catalog/session/1739403254724001isXhCSA Summit at RSAC 2025: Fireside Chat with Tim Brown and Chris Hoff: https://www.csasummitrsac.com/event/5b3547c2-c652-4f77-97de-5b094e746626/agenda?session=1452408b-c822-4664-87b8-38ce1276247bLearn more and catch more stories from RSA Conference 2025 coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/rsa-conference-usa-2025-rsac-san-francisco-usa-cybersecurity-event-infosec-conference-coverageCatch all of our event coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/technology-and-cybersecurity-conference-coverageWant to tell your Brand Story Briefing as part of our event coverage?

    As anticipation builds for the RSAC Conference 2025, ISACA leaders Mary Carmichael and Dooshima Dabo’Adzuana join Sean Martin and Marco Ciappelli to preview what the global technology and cybersecurity association has in store for attendees this year. With a focus on expanding community, AI governance, and professional development, their conversation reveals how ISACA is showing up with both timely insights and tangible resources.Mary Carmichael, President of ISACA’s Vancouver Chapter and a CPA focused on cybersecurity risk and governance, highlights the session she’s co-presenting with Dooshima Dabo’Adzuana: Third-Party AI: What Are You Really Buying? Their talk will explore the increasing complexity of evaluating AI solutions procured from vendors—especially those embedding large language models. Topics include due diligence during procurement, monitoring post-deployment, and assessing whether vendor practices align with internal risk and privacy requirements.Dooshima Dabo’Adzuana, a researcher at Boise State University and leader from ISACA’s Abuja Chapter, shares how ISACA members across regions are grappling with similar questions: What does AI mean for my organization? What risks do third-party integrations introduce? She emphasizes the importance of frameworks and educational tools—resources that ISACA is making readily available at their booth (South Expo #2268) and through new certification tracks in AI audit and security.Alongside the AI focus, visitors to the booth can explore results from ISACA’s Quantum Pulse Poll and access guidance on encryption readiness for a post-quantum future. The booth will also feature a selfie station and serve as a meeting point for the diverse ISACA community, with members from over 220 chapters worldwide.The conversation rounds out with a critical discussion on cybersecurity career development. Both Mary and Dooshima share personal stories of transitioning into the field—Mary from accounting, Dooshima from insurance—and call for broader recognition of transferable skills. They point to global tools, such as career pathway frameworks supported by ISACA and the UK Cyber Security Council, as essential for addressing the persistent workforce gap.This episode offers a preview of how ISACA is connecting global conversations on AI, quantum, and professional development—making RSAC Conference 2025 not just a tech showcase, but a community gathering rooted in learning and action.Stop by booth 2268 in the South Expo to explore how ISACA are equipping professionals with practical tools for AI governance, quantum readiness, and cybersecurity career growth—and how your organization can benefit from a stronger, more connected community.Learn more about ISACA: https://itspm.ag/isaca-96808Guests:Mary Carmichael, President of ISACA’s Vancouver Chapter | https://www.linkedin.com/in/carmichaelmary/Dooshima Dabo’Adzuana, a researcher at Boise State University and leader from ISACA’s Abuja Chapter | https://www.linkedin.com/in/dooshima-dabo-adzuana/ResourcesMary and Dooshima's session at RSA Conference: https://path.rsaconference.com/flow/rsac/us25/FullAgenda/page/catalog/session/1737642290064001tqyqLearn more about ISACA's AI resources: https://www.isaca.org/resources/artificial-intelligenceLearn more about ISACA's credentials: https://www.isaca.org/credentialingLearn more and catch more stories from ISACA: https://www.itspmagazine.com/directory/isacaLearn more and catch more stories from RSA Conference 2025 coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/rsa-conference-usa-2025-rsac-san-francisco-usa-cybersecurity-event-infosec-conference-coverage______________________Keywords: ai, quantum, cybersecurity, risk, governance, audit, certification, encryption, rsa, rsac, third-party, compliance, career, skills, education, community, brand story, brand marketing, marketing podcast, brand story podcast______________________Catch all of our event coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/technology-and-cybersecurity-conference-coverageWant to tell your Brand Story Briefing as part of our event coverage?
