video: https://youtu.be/O4KGfG2UJmoJoin us for an insightful conversation with Craig Rowland as we dive into Linux security, cybersecurity, and the evolution of hacking from BBS days to modern threats. We explore how Sandfly Security's agentless approach protects Linux systems, the role of AI in cybersecurity, and whether you really need antivirus on Linux. Plus, we discuss startup scaling, Defcon's rise, and the cleverest Linux attack we've seen.
