Roger Grimes, KnowBe4 | RSAC 2025

Roger Grimes, data-driven defense evangelist at KnowBe4, joins theCUBE’s Dave Vellante and Jon Oltsik at the RSAC 2025 Conference. The conversation examines the dual role of agentic AI in both advancing cyberattacks and enabling stronger defenses.

Grimes emphasizes the need for companies to leverage the data they already have to counter threats such as social engineering and unpatched vulnerabilities. He explains how agentic AI accelerates threat evolution and demands smarter, faster detection and response.

The discussion also explores personalized security training and the value of customizing risk strategies to match an organization’s needs. Grimes outlines how adaptive, data-informed defenses help organizations stay ahead in an increasingly automated threat landscape.
