The AI Threat Multiplier: Securing Mobile Apps in the Automated Era - Ryan Lloyd, Jason Cortlund - ASW #400
Podcast: Security Weekly Podcast Network (Audio)Published On: Tue Sep 15 2026
Description: While agents and LLMs haven't fundamentally changed core mobile vulnerability types, they have supercharged speed, scale, and accessibility—democratizing threats like automated phishing, synthetic identity fraud, and easier identification of hard-coded secrets. Ryan Lloyd and Jason Cortlund break down how threat actors leverage LLMs as a force multiplier to accelerate mobile app attacks. Then we discuss actionable defense strategies, from viewing agents as an active adversary to leveraging server-side threat telemetry, attestation, and layered defense strategies combined with polymorphic code releases.
