In this special year-end episode, Joshua Schmidt revisits the most mind-bending moments from The Audit's 2025 season. From Justin Marciano and Paul Vann demonstrating live deepfakes in real-time (yes, they actually did it on camera) to Bill Harris explaining how Google's quantum experiments suggest parallel universes, to Alex Bratton's urgent warning about the AI adoption crisis happening right now in boardrooms everywhere.

What You'll Learn:

• How adversaries are using free tools to create convincing deepfakes for job interviews and social engineering attacks—and why this represents a national security threat
• Why NASA shut down its quantum computer after getting results that "challenge contemporary thinking" (and the wild theories circulating about what they discovered)
• The critical mistake companies are making with AI integration: racing ahead without governance, security frameworks, or responsible use policies
• How the Pi-hole community exemplifies open-source security at its best—enterprise-grade protection at fractions of the cost
• Why IT teams saying "no" to AI isn't realistic, and what responsible AI adoption actually looks like

This isn't just a recap—it's a wake-up call. These conversations reveal the inflection points where standing still means falling behind. Whether you're a CISO, security analyst, IT auditor, or business leader trying to navigate AI adoption, these clips offer the perspective you need heading into 2026.

What if you could hire an army of AI security analysts that work 24/7 investigating alerts so your human team can focus on what actually matters? Edward Wu, founder and CEO of DropZone AI, joins The Audit crew to reveal how large language models are transforming security operations—and why the future of cyber defense looks more like a drone war than traditional SOC work.

From his eight years at AttackIQ generating millions of security alerts (and the fatigue that came with them), Edward built DropZone to solve the problem he helped create: alert overload. This conversation goes deep on AI agents specializing in different security domains, the asymmetry problem between attackers and defenders, and why deepfakes might require us to use "safe words" before every Zoom call.

What You'll Learn:

• How AI tier-1 analysts automate 90% of alert triage to find real threats faster
• Why attackers only need to be right once, but AI can level the playing field
• Real-world deepfake attacks hitting finance teams right now
• The societal implications of AI-driven social engineering at scale
• Whether superintelligence will unlock warp engines or just better spreadsheets

If alert fatigue is crushing your security team, this episode delivers the blueprint for fighting back with AI. Hit subscribe for more conversations with security leaders who are actually building the future—not just talking about it.
