Listen to Talos security experts as they bring their hot takes on current security topics and Talos research to the table. Along the way Hazel, Mitch, Matt and a rotating chair of special guests will talk about anything (and we mean anything) that's on their minds, from the latest YouTube trends to Olympic curling etiquette. New episodes every other Thursday.
Hazel, Bill, Joe and Dave break down (sometimes in the literal sense) the 2025 Talos Year in Review which is available now at blog.talosintelligence.com/2025yearinreview
The team, supported as always by the Turkey Lurkey Man, dives into the biggest cybersecurity trends of the year, including:
· The rapid weaponization of vulnerabilities
· Why identity abuse showed up everywhere

There’s also an alarming amount of discussion about glutes. And gravy.
