AI Security Podcast: Why Asset Intelligence is Replacing the CMDB & Static Dashboards

Axonius CEO Joe Diamond joins the AI Security Podcast to unpack why asset management remains unsolved after decades. Most CISOs can only account for 50-60% of their environment, leaving the rest as unmanaged "dark matter." Joe breaks down the difference between a CMDB and true asset intelligence, walks through how AI agents fit as a new asset class, and uses the 2024 CrowdStrike outage as a real-world example of how fast organizations with full asset visibility were able to recover versus those without it. 

The conversation closes on a bigger question: as AI reshapes how software gets built and used, does the traditional dashboard disappear entirely in favor of natural-language, API-driven interfaces, and what does that mean for enterprise security teams?
