"It’s not as dumb as the original bots that were just repeating an action. The agent will see that you’re releasing a new security feature and adapt in hours. It changes the way you fight."

 

In this episode we sit down with industry veteran Simon Marchand from DataDome to discuss the rapidly evolving landscape of Agentic AI and its impact on digital commerce. As we navigate 2026, the shift from basic bots to autonomous AI agents is transforming how consumers shop, but it is also handing fraudsters a powerful new toolkit. Simon shares his 16-year journey from bank practitioner to evangelizing advanced security technologies, explaining why businesses must adapt to this new revenue stream without falling victim to high-speed, automated attacks.

 

The conversation covers the critical balance between welcoming legitimate AI agents—the high-intent buyers of the future—and defending against sophisticated schemes like deepfake identity theft and automated refund abuse. Simon introduces three pillars for modernizing your defense: implementing edge-based technology to verify agent intent, breaking down the silos between cybersecurity and fraud teams, and upskilling talent to handle AI-driven threats. Whether you are a small merchant or an enterprise leader, this episode provides a roadmap for securing your business in the age of agentic commerce.
