Threat actors are behaving more like professional organizations in an effort to launch more effective and profitable attacks. We explore this and other themes from the latest Threat Labs report from HPE, our sponsor for today’s Packet Protector episode. We also look at how older vulnerabilities are still contributing to today’s exploits, why security organizations should consider resilience and not just prevention, how attackers and defenders are using AI, and more. This episode was recorded on site at RSA Conference 2026.
Our guest is Madani Adjali, Vice President of Product Management (SASE & Security), HPE Networking.
