Ironis Insights sits down with Adam Mlady, founder of A Storm Is Coming LLC, to unpack how AI has fundamentally changed cybersecurity and why the next wave of attacks is already here. With a background spanning military sonar systems, network security, and advanced AI development, Adam brings a rare blend of operational, technical, and defensive insight.

Adam explains how modern cyberattacks are no longer manual or targeted. They are automated, AI-driven, and scalable. From zero-click exploits to synthetic phishing and impersonation attacks, threat actors no longer need human effort or time. Every connected system is now a potential entry point.

The conversation dives into Hi-Hat, Adam’s AI-powered red team and blue team defense platform. By combining offensive testing with real-time defensive monitoring, Hi-Hat exposes vulnerabilities before attackers can exploit them. The system keeps humans in the loop while using AI to detect, repair, and respond at machine speed.

Adam also discusses model poisoning, compromised training data, and why larger AI models are not inherently safer. Even small amounts of malicious data can corrupt systems at scale, making education, governance, and continuous monitoring critical.

The episode closes with a look at what’s next. From sustainable AI energy research to rethinking authentication and identity, Adam shares how he’s building for a future where security, privacy, and control must evolve as fast as the technology itself.

What You’ll Learn:

Why AI has made cyberattacks faster and harder to detect

How zero-click exploits and synthetic phishing work

Why red team and blue team defenses must operate together

How poisoned training data compromises AI systems

Why “human-in-the-loop” governance still matters

What the next phase of cybersecurity could look like
