Palo Alto Networks CEO Nikesh Arora on AI-powered cyber threats, autonomous agents and the quantum risk to encrypted data.

Palo Alto Networks CEO Nikesh Arora joins Arjun Kharpal on "The Tech Download" to discuss how AI is reshaping cybersecurity.

They explore the risks posed by autonomous AI agents, increasingly convincing scams and AI-powered attacks, as well as the debate over slowing advanced AI development.

Arora also explains why quantum computers could threaten today's encryption — and why hackers may already be collecting data to decrypt later. 

Why this matters

The discussion highlights how AI could lower the cost and increase the scale of cyberattacks, raising risks for organizations that rely on automated defenses and digital identity systems. The quantum-encryption concern also signals a potential long-term data-security problem, as attackers could retain stolen encrypted data for future decryption.
