- Interview
- Technology
How should security leaders respond when AI-powered attacks compress detection and response windows from minutes to seconds? At Barracuda TechSummit 26 in Alpbach, Austria, I spoke with Rohit Ghai, Chief Executive Officer at Barracuda. The conversation took place exactly one year after Rohit joined the company, giving us an opportunity to discuss what brought him to Barracuda, what he inherited, and how his first year has influenced his plans for the business. Rohit explains that Barracuda's focus on smaller and resource-constrained organizations was an important reason he accepted the role. A cyber incident can threaten the...

What does cyber security leadership look like when attackers can operate at machine speed? AI agents hold powerful access privileges and response windows are shrinking from minutes to seconds. While at the Barracuda Tech Summit 26 here in Outback, Austria, I spoke with the Barracuda CEO on his first anniversary since his appointment. He will reflect on what attracted him to Barracuda,
how his experience at RSA helped shaped his leadership philosophy, and why protecting smaller organizations actually gives cybersecurity a particularly meaningful purpose. And we will also discuss why the AI era strengthens the case for connected security platforms, how tool sprawl could could become agents for all and why identity protection must account for the rapidly growing
population of non-human users. And we'll also discuss why intelligence might be abundant while human trust remains difficult to replace. A lot to get through today, so enough scenes setting for me.
