AI security is no longer just about preventing harmful outputs.
As AI agents gain access to tools, data, memory, and production systems, security has to move beyond the model itself.
In this episode of the ODSC AI X Podcast, host Dan Gerlanc speaks with David Campbell, previously Head of AI Security at Scale AI, about the evolving risks of agentic AI and what it takes to secure AI systems in production.
They discuss AI red teaming, persistent prompt injection, least privilege, observability, system-level security, and why autonomous cyber defense may become essential as AI agents grow more capable.
