In this episode of The Phillip Wylie Show, Phillip Wylie sits down with legendary application security pioneer and entrepreneur Jeremiah Grossman to discuss the evolution of web security, vulnerability management, cyber insurance, AI-driven software development, and the future of offensive security.Jeremiah shares his hacker origin story, from hacking his ISP as a teenager to discovering vulnerabilities in Yahoo Mail during the early days of the web. That experience eventually led him to Yahoo and later to founding WhiteHat Security, one of the first SaaS-based web application security companies.The conversation dives deep into how application security evolved from manual testing and early vulnerability scanners into scalable AppSec programs, as well as why modern vulnerability management is still fundamentally broken. Jeremiah explains why only a tiny percentage of CVEs ever lead to real financial loss and how his latest company is approaching vulnerability prioritization differently. =========================
