The year of the robot

2025 will be the year of the futurist. I never thought that I'd be writing a blog post about AI and robotics at this point in my career, but technology has advanced so much in the lat 12 months setting up 2025 to be a landmark year in terms of the tech industry. Self driving cars, robots, AGI - these are all things that have a realistic chance of shipping this year which is super exciting for me as a futurist. That said, Advances in artificial intelligence (AI) agent technology, robotics, and APIs are transforming the way we live and work, but they also present new challenges for web application and API security. Traditional Web Application Firewalls (WAFs) are going to struggle to keep pace with these changes, leading to the rise of API Native WAFs and WAF Agents as superior solutions. This article will explore the new threats to WAFs in 2025.

Moderated by Katie Norton of IDC, the discussion featured Brian Joe (Impart Security), Francesco Cipollone (Phoenix Security), and Daniel Pacak (cloud-native security consultant), who brought insights from across the security landscape.Starting with eBPF’s roots in network traffic filtering, the panel explored its evolution into a powerful tool for observability and, potentially, security. Along the way, they challenged the hype, highlighted its real-world applications, and didn’t shy away from its limitations. This wasn’t just a tech talk—it was a deep dive into what eBPF can actually deliver and where the industry still needs to innovate.
