  • How AI is revolutionizing cybersecurity: Israeli company Intezer's breakthrough discovery

    How AI is revolutionizing cybersecurity: Israeli company Intezer's breakthrough discovery
    Jan 13 2026
    An Israeli cybersecurity company has shed new light on how artificial intelligence is reshaping both cyber defense and cyber espionage, following its discovery of a sophisticated AI-driven spy campaign targeting Russian defense technology firms.

    Speaking on the Defense and Tech podcast, Itai Tevet, CEO of Tel Aviv-based Intezer, described how the company uncovered a campaign that used AI-generated Russian language decoys, including realistic-looking documents and invitations, to lure victims into opening malicious files. The campaign, which Intezer observed in the wild rather than disrupting directly, appeared to be linked to a group associated with Ukraine, highlighting the growing role of AI in geopolitical cyber operations.

  • How Israel’s defense innovation is reshaping global security

    How Israel’s defense innovation is reshaping global security
    Jan 6 2026
    From the battlefield to the boardroom, Israel’s defense innovation ecosystem is undergoing a fundamental shift. In this episode of Defense & Tech by The Jerusalem Post, host Anna Aharon-Haim speaks with Alon Lifshitz, partner and founder of Aurelius Capital, about how October 7 reshaped Israel’s defense tech landscape, accelerated military adoption of AI, and opened unprecedented opportunities for dual use technologies. Lifshitz explains why Israel has become a proving ground for real time defense innovation, how drone detection is emerging as a critical civilian and military challenge, and why global defense markets are racing to close the technology gap with the private sector. The conversation also explores investment trends in Israel, the US, Europe, and Asia, the role of former intelligence and defense leaders in venture capital, and the growing intersection between national security and commercial technology.

  • Can enemies hack military AI? Iron Dome engineer on battlefield risks

    Can enemies hack military AI? Iron Dome engineer on battlefield risks
    Dec 17 2025
    Col. (Res.) Ryan Gity, who helped develop Iron Dome and shaped Israel's national AI strategy, reveals how adversaries can plant "zero-day triggers" in open-source AI models used by militaries worldwide—including the IDF and U.S. government. In this wide-ranging conversation, Gity explains why "AI is the next nuclear arms race" and shares a striking anecdote from a Geneva ethics conference where a Russian representative declared they would use autonomous weapons regardless of Western concerns. He discusses the recent discovery that 80% of the world's 1.5 million AI models are open-source and potentially compromised, why Israel needs its own sovereign foundation model to protect against historical manipulation, and how robotics and AI could solve the IDF's manpower shortage. Gity offers a rare insider perspective as someone who served on two committees appointed by the Prime Minister—one on defense budgets and future forces, another on Israel's national AI strategy. He addresses the ethical frameworks governing autonomous weapons, the chip supply chain battle between the U.S. and China, and predicts humanoid robots in homes within 15 years.
