At BlackHat 2025, the conversations got intense — and a little hilarious. Matt Alderman and Dr. Doug White closed out the week with a deep dive into the future of the internet, AI security, and the mysterious Model Context Protocol (MCP) — all while debating the fate of the Luxor Hotel and why Mandalay Bay’s lampshades are “tamperproof.”
From quantum computing disrupting HTTPS to agentic AI identity management and the browser plugin privacy crisis, they connect the dots on how security, trust, and monetization might change forever. Expect sharp insights, bold predictions, and a few laugh-out-loud moments about ice buckets, trash cans, and the bathroom wall problem of data privacy.
If you care about cybersecurity trends, internet infrastructure shifts, or just want to hear two pros riff on the weirdest rumors in Vegas, this is the wrap-up you don’t want to miss.
