On this week’s episode of Ahead of the Threat, FBI Assistant Director Brett Leatherman is joined by Joe Levy, a security practitioner and CEO of Sophos.

They also highlight the importance of securing edge devices, managing third-party risk, and implementing the recommendations of the #FBI’s Operation Winter SHIELD. To start the show, AD Leatherman is joined by Adam Maddock, an FBI section chief.

Great to back in Nashville addressing the 15th Annual Rx and Illicit Drug Summit - an important event with so many great Americans dedicated to fighting the deadly drug epidemic impacting far too many families in our country. In 2025 this @FBI seized enough fentanyl to kill 178 million Americans - 2,250 kgs - a 31% increase from the year prior. We established 59 Homeland Security Task Forces with our partners all over the country - allowing federal LEO’s to embed with local partners, share intelligence, and break the criminal traffickers and their funding streams. And under President Trump’s leadership, we were able to secure a historic commitment with our MPS counterparts in China to restrict 13 precursor chemicals - key to cutting off the pipeline of fentanyl traffickers and crushing them at the source. Thanks to those efforts and outstanding partners on Capitol Hill, we celebrated a 20% decline in OD deaths last year. We are saving lives every day - and we have more to do. Thank you to @RepHalRogers for the gracious invitation and our partners for your continued support of law enforcement on this critical issue.
