AI is changing cybersecurity fast—and not always in the ways you’d expect. In this episode of Authentically Cyber, I sit down with Char Hunt, a security awareness advocate who’s seen the evolution firsthand—from help desk to system admin to working with AI and security awareness today.

We get into the real conversation around AI in cybersecurity: how it’s helping defenders, how it’s empowering attackers, and why slowing down might be your best defense in a world moving at AI speed.

This isn’t just for cybersecurity professionals. If you use the internet, this affects you.

Listen as we break down how AI can be your best friend… or your worst enemy.
