Minus One with Nikesh Arora, CEO of Palo Alto Networks

The next six months in cybersecurity will be unlike anything the industry has faced before. Nikesh Arora, CEO of Palo Alto Networks, joins South Park Commons partner Aditya Agarwal to discuss why AI is both the threat and the only viable solution.

Nikesh traces his own unlikely journey from Google's Chief Business Officer to leading one of the world's most critical cybersecurity companies with no prior cybersecurity experience, shares what Masayoshi Son taught him about risk, and explains why most founders are too de-risked before they ever start building. He also breaks down why the same AI models writing code today will soon expose decades of hidden vulnerabilities at a scale no IT team is prepared to handle. Watch select clips of the episode below.

Because before you launch at Zero, you have to figure out what to launch at Minus One. Hosted by South Park Commons Partners.
