Wiz co-founder and CTO Ami Luttwak says AI can now carry out cyberattacks in 20 minutes that once took skilled attackers weeks or months. In his view, companies need to continuously attack their own systems with the latest AI models to stay secure. For startups, that means building automated testing and patching into the development process from the beginning. Ami joins a16z's Sarah Wang and Zane Lackey to discuss what changed during Black October, why patching is falling behind, the cost of continuous security testing, and why better security architecture matters more than simply buying more tools. 0:00 Intro 1:04 Welcome to Black October 3:19 How AI made every day a zero day 6:51 The PHP vulnerability: 70% of the internet 9:19 Why patching can't keep up 11:32 How Wiz uses AI to find vulnerabilities 16:59 The cost of continuous testing 19:23 Cloud security in the AI era 22:18 The red agent: attack yourself first 26:41 Agent swarms attacking your own systems 28:43 What founders must do before they ship 32:15 Where security budgets should go 36:10 Most of what security teams do isn't security 43:34 Scan for Good and public infrastructure YouTube: http://youtu.be/PbD9pVXxsYM @amiluttwak @sarahdingwang @zanelackey
