In this eye-opening episode of the Influence Global Podcast, host Gordon Glenister is joined by Max Corbridge, ethical hacker and founder of Secure Agentics, to unpack the rapidly growing risks that artificial intelligence poses to influencers, creators, brands and everyday users. Max discusses his decade-long career working with high-street banks, the UK government and major organisations to simulate cyber-attacks and strengthen defences. In recent years, his work has increasingly pivoted to AI-driven threats, where attackers now use autonomous agents, voice-cloning and deepfake technologies to scale scams at unprecedented speed. From major breaches such as the Jaguar Land Rover incident to AI-generated YouTube channels that convincingly mimic celebrity voices, Max explains why influencers are uniquely vulnerable—and what they must do to protect themselves, their reputation and their business. This episode is essential listening for creators, talent managers, agencies, marketers and brand partners who need to understand emerging risks in the AI era.
