A secret field that summons lightning. A massive spiral that disappears into a salt lake. A celestial observatory carved into a volcano. Meet the wild—and sometimes explosive—world of land art, where artists craft masterpieces with dynamite and bulldozers. In our Season 2 premiere, guest Dylan Thuras, cofounder of Atlas Obscura, takes us off road and into the minds of the artists who literally reshaped parts of the Southwest. These works aren’t meant to be easy to reach—or to explain—but they just might change how you see the world. Land art you’ll visit in this episode: - Double Negative and City by Michael Heizer (Garden Valley, Nevada) - Spiral Jetty by Robert Smithson (Great Salt Lake, Utah) - Sun Tunnels by Nancy Holt (Great Basin Desert, Utah) - Lightning Field by Walter De Maria (Catron County, New Mexico) - Roden Crater by James Turrell (Painted Desert, Arizona) Via Podcast is a production of AAA Mountain West Group.…

EP227 AI-Native MDR: Betting on the Future of Security Operations? 23:58

לפני 6 ימים23:58

23:58

Guests: Eric Foster , CEO of Tenex.AI Venkata Koppaka , CTO of Tenex.AI Topics: Why is your AI-powered MDR special? Why start an MDR from scratch using AI? So why should users bet on an “AI-native” MDR instead of an MDR that has already got its act together and is now applying AI to an existing set of practices? What’s the current breakdown in labor between your human SOC analysts vs your AI SOC agents? How do you expect this to evolve and how will that change your unit economics? What tasks are humans uniquely good at today’s SOC? How do you expect that to change in the next 5 years? We hear concerns about SOC AI missing things –but we know humans miss things all the time too. So how do you manage buyer concerns about the AI agents missing things? Let’s talk about how you’re helping customers measure your efficacy overall. What metrics should organizations prioritize when evaluating MDR?

Guest: Christine Sizemore , Cloud Security Architect, Google Cloud Topics: Can you describe the key components of an AI software supply chain, and how do they compare to those in a traditional software supply chain? I hope folks listening have heard past episodes where we talked about poisoning training data. What are the other interesting and unexpected security challenges and threats associated with the AI software supply chain? We like to say that history might not repeat itself but it does rhyme – what are the rhyming patterns in security practices people need to be aware of when it comes to securing their AI supply chains? We’ve talked a lot about technology and process–what are the organizational pitfalls to avoid when developing AI software? What organizational "smells" are associated with irresponsible AI development? We are all hearing about agentic security – so can we just ask the AI to secure itself?

Guest: Diana Kelley , CSO at Protect AI Topics: Can you explain the concept of "MLSecOps" as an analogy with DevSecOps, with 'Dev' replaced by 'ML'? This has nothing to do with SecOps, right? What are the most critical steps a CISO should prioritize when implementing MLSecOps within their organization? What gets better when you do it? How do we adapt traditional security testing, like vulnerability scanning, SAST, and DAST, to effectively assess the security of machine learning models? Can we? In the context of AI supply chain security, what is the essential role of third-party assessments, particularly regarding data provenance? How can organizations balance the need for security logging in AI systems with the imperative to protect privacy and sensitive data? Do we need to decouple security from safety or privacy? What are the primary security risks associated with overprivileged AI agents, and how can organizations mitigate these risks? Top differences between LLM/chatbot AI security vs AI agent security?

Guests: no guests, just us in the studio Topics: At RSA 2025, did we see solid, measurably better outcomes from AI use in security, or mostly just "sizzle" and good ideas with potential? Are the promises of an "AI SOC" repeating the mistakes seen with SOAR in previous years regarding fully automated security operations? Does "AI SOC" work according to RSA floor? How realistic is the vision expressed by some [yes, really!] that AI progress could lead to technical teams, including IT and security, shrinking dramatically or even to zero in a few years? Why do companies continue to rely on decades-old or “non-leading” security technologies, and what role does the concept of a "organizational change budget" play in this inertia? Is being "AI Native" fundamentally better for security technologies compared to adding AI capabilities to existing platforms, or is the jury still out? Got "an AI-native SIEM"?

EP222 From Post-IR Lessons to Proactive Security: Deconstructing Mandiant M-Trends 35:19

לפני 5 weeks35:19

35:19

Guests: Kirstie Failey @ Google Threat Intelligence Group Scott Runnels @ Mandiant Incident Response Topics: What is the hardest thing about turning distinct incident reports into a fun to read and useful report like M-Trends ? How much are the lessons and recommendations skewed by the fact that they are all “post-IR” stories? Are “IR-derived” security lessons the best way to improve security? Isn’t this a bit like learning how to build safely from fires vs learning safety engineering? The report implies that F500 companies suffer from certain security issues despite their resources, does this automatically mean that smaller companies suffer from the same but more? "Dwell time" metrics sound obvious, but is there magic behind how this is done? Sometimes “dwell tie going down” is not automatically the defender’s win, right? What is the expected minimum dwell time? If “it depends”, then what does it depend on? Impactful outliers vs general trends (“by the numbers”), what teaches us more about security? Why do we seem to repeat the mistakes so much in security? Do we think it is useful to give the same advice repeatedly if the data implies that it is correct advice but people clearly do not do it?

30:26

Guests: No guests [Tim in Vegas and Anton remote] Topics: So, another Next is done. Beyond the usual Vegas chaos, what was the overarching security theme or vibe you [Tim] felt dominated the conference this year? Thinking back to Next '24, what felt genuinely different this year versus just the next iteration of last year's trends? Last year, we pondered the 'Cloud Island' vs. 'Cloud Peninsula'. Based on Next 2025, is cloud security becoming more integrated with general cyber security, or is it still its own distinct domain? What wider trends did you observe, perhaps from the expo floor buzz or partner announcements, that security folks should be aware of? What was the biggest surprise for you at Next 2025? Something you absolutely didn't see coming? Putting on your prediction hats (however reluctantly): based on Next 2025, what do you foresee as the major cloud security focus or challenge for the industry in the next 12 months? If a busy podcast listener listening could only take one key message or action item away from everything announced and discussed at Next 2025, what should it be?

EP220 Big Rewards for Cloud Security: Exploring the Google VRP 29:13

לפני 6 weeks29:13

29:13

Guests: Michael Cote , Cloud VRP Lead, Google Cloud Aadarsh Karumathil , Security Engineer, Google Cloud Topics: Vulnerability response at cloud-scale sounds very hard! How do you triage vulnerability reports and make sure we’re addressing the right ones in the underlying cloud infrastructure? How do you determine how much to pay for each vulnerability? What is the largest reward we paid? What was it for? What products get the most submissions? Is this driven by the actual product security or by trends and fashions like AI? What are the most likely rejection reasons? What makes for a very good - and exceptional? - vulnerability report? We hear we pay more for “exceptional” reports, what does it mean? In college Tim had a roommate who would take us out drinking on his Google web app vulnerability rewards. Do we have something similar for people reporting vulnerabilities in our cloud infrastructure? Are people making real money off this? How do we actually uniquely identify vulnerabilities in the cloud? CVE does not work well, right? What are the expected risk reduction benefits from Cloud VRP?

EP219 Beyond the Buzzwords: Decoding Cyber Risk and Threat Actors in Asia Pacific 31:46

לפני 7 weeks31:46

31:46

Guest: Steve Ledzian , APAC CTO, Mandiant at Google Cloud Topics: We've seen a shift in how boards engage with cybersecurity. From your perspective, what's the most significant misconception boards still hold about cyber risk, particularly in the Asia Pacific region, and how has that impacted their decision-making? Cybersecurity is rife with jargon. If you could eliminate or redefine one overused term, which would it be and why? How does this overloaded language specifically hinder effective communication and action in the region? The Mandiant Attack Lifecycle is a well-known model. How has your experience in the East Asia region challenged or refined this model? Are there unique attack patterns or actor behaviors that necessitate adjustments? Two years post-acquisition, what's been the most surprising or unexpected benefit of the Google-Mandiant combination? M-Trends data provides valuable insights, particularly regarding dwell time. Considering the Asia Pacific region, what are the most significant factors reducing dwell time, and how do these trends differ from global averages? Given your expertise in Asia Pacific, can you share an observation about a threat actor's behavior that is often overlooked in broader cybersecurity discussions? Looking ahead, what's the single biggest cybersecurity challenge you foresee for organizations in the Asia Pacific region over the next five years, and what proactive steps should they be taking now to prepare?

EP218 IAM in the Cloud & AI Era: Navigating Evolution, Challenges, and the Rise of ITDR/ISPM 30:10

לפני 8 weeks30:10

30:10

Guest: Henrique Teixeira , Senior VP of Strategy, Saviynt, ex-Gartner analyst Topics: How have you seen IAM evolve over the years, especially with the shift to the cloud, and now AI? What are some of the biggest challenges and opportunities these two shifts present? ITDR (Identity Threat Detection and Response) and ISPM (Identity Security Posture Management) are emerging areas in IAM. How do you see these fitting into the overall IAM landscape? Are they truly distinct categories or just extensions of existing IAM practices? Shouldn’t ITDR just be part of your Cloud DR or maybe even your SecOps tool of choice? It seems goofy to try to stand ITDR on its own when the impact of an identity compromise is entirely a function of what that identity can access or do, no? Regarding workload vs. human identity, could you elaborate on the unique security considerations for each? How does the rise of machine identities and APIs impact IAM approaches? We had a whole episode around machine identity that involved turtles–what have you seen in the machine identity space and how have you seen users mess it up? The cybersecurity world is full of acronyms. Any tips on how to create a memorable and impactful acronym? Resources: EP166 Workload Identity, Zero Trust and SPIFFE (Also Turtles!)

Can you share a particularly memorable red teaming exercise that exposed a surprising vulnerability in an AI system? What was the key takeaway for your team and the client? Beyond traditional adversarial attacks, what emerging threats in the AI security landscape are you most concerned about right now? What trips most clients, classic security mistakes in AI systems or AI-specific mistakes? Are there truly new mistakes in AI systems or are they old mistakes in new clothing?

Guest: Meador Inge , Security Engineer, Google Cloud Topics: Can you walk us through Google's typical threat modeling process? What are the key steps involved? Threat modeling can be applied to various areas. Where does Google utilize it the most? How do we apply this to huge and complex systems? How does Google keep its threat models updated? What triggers a reassessment? How does Google operationalize threat modeling information to prioritize security work and resource allocation? How does it influence your security posture? What are the biggest challenges Google faces in scaling and improving its threat modeling practices? Any stories where we got this wrong? How can LLMs like Gemini improve Google's threat modeling activities? Can you share examples of basic and more sophisticated techniques?

29:22

Guest: Archana Ramamoorthy , Senior Director of Product Management, Google Cloud Topics: You are responsible for building systems that need to comply with laws that are often mutually contradictory. It seems technically impossible to do, how do you do this? Google is not alone in being a global company with local customers and local requirements. How are we building systems that provide local compliance with global consistency in their use for customers who are similar in scale to us? Originally, Google had global systems synchronized around the entire planet–planet scale supercompute–with atomic clocks. How did we get to regionalized approach from there? Engineering takes a long time. How do we bring enough agility to product definition and engineering design to give our users robust foundations in our systems that also let us keep up with changing and diverging regulatory goals? What are some of the biggest challenges you face working in the trusted cloud space? Is there something you would like to share about being a woman leader in technology?

EP213 From Promise to Practice: LLMs for Anomaly Detection and Real-World Cloud Security 28:01

לפני 13 weeks28:01

28:01

Guest: Yigael Berger , Head of AI, Sweet Security Topic: Where do you see a gap between the “promise” of LLMs for security and how they are actually used in the field to solve customer pains? I know you use LLMs for anomaly detection. Explain how that “trick” works? What is it good for? How effective do you think it will be? Can you compare this to other anomaly detection methods? Also, won’t this be costly - how do you manage to keep inference costs under control at scale? SOC teams often grapple with the tradeoff between “seeing everything” so that they never miss any attack, and handling too much noise. What are you seeing emerge in cloud D&R to address this challenge? We hear from folks who developed an automated approach to handle a reviews queue previously handled by people. Inevitably even if precision and recall can be shown to be superior, executive or customer backlash comes hard with a false negative (or a flood of false positives). Have you seen this phenomenon, and if so, what have you learned about handling it? What are other barriers that need to be overcome so that LLMs can push the envelope further for improving security? So from your perspective, LLMs are going to tip the scale in whose favor - cybercriminals or defenders?

Guest: Kimberly Goody , Head of Intel Analysis and Production, Google Cloud Topics: Google's Threat Intelligence Group (GTIG) has a unique position, accessing both underground forum data and incident response information. How does this dual perspective enhance your ability to identify and attribute cybercriminal campaigns? Attributing cyberattacks with high confidence is important. Can you walk us through the process GTIG uses to connect an incident to specific threat actors, given the complexities of the threat landscape and the challenges of linking tools and actors? There is a difficulty of correlating publicly known tool names with the aliases used by threat actors in underground forums. How does GTIG overcome this challenge to track the evolution and usage of malware and other tools? Can you give a specific example of how this "decoding" process works? How does GTIG collaborate with other teams within Google, such as incident response or product security, to share threat intelligence and improve Google's overall security posture? How does this work make Google more secure? What does Google (and specifically GTIG) do differently than other organizations focused on collecting and analyzing threat-intelligence?

Guests: Beth Cartier , former CISO, vCISO, founder of Initiative Security Guest host of the CISO mini-series: Marina Kaganovich , Executive Trust Lead, Office of the CISO @ Google Cloud Topics: How is that vCISO’ing going? What is special about vCISO and cloud? Is it easier or harder? AI, cyber, resilience - all are hot topics these days. In the context of cloud security, how are you seeing organizations realistically address these trends? Are they being managed effectively (finally?) or is security always playing catch up? Recent events reminded us that cybersecurity may sometimes interfere with resilience. How have you looked to build resilience into your security program? The topic is perhaps 30+ years old, but security needs to have a seat at the table, and often still doesn’t - why do you think this is the case?

Guest host: Marina Kaganovich , Executive Trust Lead, Office of the CISO @ Google Cloud Guest: John Rogers , CISO @ MSCI Topics: Can you briefly walk us through your CISO career path? What are some of the key (cloud or otherwise) trends that CISOs should be keeping an eye on? What is the time frame for them? What are the biggest cloud security challenges CISOs are facing today, and how are those evolving? Given the rapid change of pace in emerging tech, such as what we’ve seen in the last year or so with gen AI, how do you balance the need to address short-term or imminent issues vs those that are long-term or emergent risks?

EP207 Slaying the Ransomware Dragon: Can a Startup Succeed? 32:55

לפני 19 weeks32:55

32:55

Guest: Bob Blakley , Co-founder and Chief Product Officer of Mimic Topics: Tell us about the ransomware problem - isn't this a bit of old news? Circa 2015, right? What makes ransomware a unique security problem? What's different about ransomware versus other kinds of malware? What do you make of the “RansomOps” take (aka “ransomware is not malware”)? Are there new ways to solve it? Is this really a problem that a startup is positioned to solve? Aren’t large infrastructure owners better positioned for this? In fact, why haven't existing solutions solved this? Is this really a symptom of a bigger problem? What is that problem? What made you personally want to get into this space, other than the potential upside of solving the problem?

EP206 Paying the Price: Ransomware's Rising Stakes in the Cloud 33:01

לפני 20 weeks33:01

33:01

Guest: Allan Liska , CSIRT at Recorded Future, now part of Mastercard Topics: Ransomware has become a pervasive threat. Could you provide us with a brief overview of the current ransomware landscape? It's often said that ransomware is driven by pure profit. Can you remind us of the business model of ransomware gangs, including how they operate, their organizational structures, and their financial motivations? Ransomware gangs are becoming increasingly aggressive in their extortion tactics. Can you shed some light on these new tactics, such as data leaks, DDoS attacks, and threats to contact victims' customers or partners? What specific challenges and considerations arise when dealing with ransomware in cloud environments, and how can organizations adapt their security strategies to mitigate these risks? What are the key factors to consider when deciding whether or not to pay the ransom? What is the single most important piece of advice you would give to organizations looking to bolster their defenses against ransomware?

EP205 Cybersecurity Forecast 2025: Beyond the Hype and into the Reality 28:19

לפני 21 weeks28:19

28:19

Guest: Andrew Kopcienski , Principal Intelligence Analyst, Google Threat Intelligence Group Questions: You have this new Cybersecurity Forecast 2025 report , what’s up with that? We are getting a bit annoyed about the fear-mongering on “oh, but attackers will use AI.” You are a threat analyst, realistically, how afraid are you of this? The report discusses the threat of compromised identities in hybrid environments (aka “no matter what you do, and where, you are hacked via AD”). What steps can organizations take to mitigate the risk of a single compromised identity leading to a significant security breach? Is this expected to continue? Is zero-day actually growing? The report seems to imply that, but aren’t “oh-days” getting more expensive every day? Many organizations still lag with detection, in your expertise, what approaches to detection actually work today? It is OK to say ”hire Managed Defense ”, BTW :-) We read the risk posed by the "Big Four" sections and they (to us) read like “hackers hack” and “APTs APT.” What is genuinely new and interesting here?

EP204 Beyond PCAST: Phil Venables on the Future of Resilience and Leading Indicators 30:32

לפני 23 weeks30:32

30:32

Guest: Phil Venables , Vice President, Chief Information Security Officer (CISO) @ Google Cloud Topics Why is our industry suddenly obsessed with resilience? Is this ransomware’s doing? How did the PCAST report come to be? Can you share the backstory and how it was created? The PCAST report emphasizes the importance of leading indicators for security and resilience. How can organizations effectively shift their focus from lagging indicators to these leading indicators? The report also emphasizes the importance of "Cyber-Physical Modularity" - this sounds mysterious to us, and probably our listeners! What is it and how does this concept contribute to enhancing the resilience of critical infrastructure? The report advocates for regular and rigorous stress testing. How can organizations effectively implement such stress testing to identify vulnerabilities and improve their resilience? In your opinion, what are the most critical takeaways from our PCAST-related paper for organizations looking to improve their security and resilience posture today? What are some of the challenges organizations might face when implementing the PCAST recommendations, and how can they overcome these challenges? Do organizations get resilience benefits “for free” by using Google Cloud?

Guest: Rich Mogull , SVP of Cloud Security at Firemon and CEO at Securosis Topics: Let’s talk about cloud security shared responsibility. How to separate the blame? Is there a good framework for apportioning blame? You've introduced the Cloud Shared Irresponsibilities Model , stating cloud providers will be considered partially responsible for breaches even if due to customer misconfigurations. How do you see this impacting the relationship between cloud providers and their customers? Will it lead to more collaboration or more friction? We both know the Jay Heiser 2015 classic “cloud is secure, but you not using it securely.” In your view, what does “use cloud securely” mean for various organizations today? Here is a very painful question: how to decide what cloud security should be free with cloud and what security can be paid? You dealt with cloud security for a long time, what is your #1 lesson so far on how to make the cloud more secure or use the cloud more securely? What is the best way to learn how to cloud?

Guest: Amine Besson , Tech Lead on Detection Engineering, Behemoth Cyberdefence Topics: What is your best advice on detection engineering to organizations who don’t want to engineer anything in security? What is the state of art when it comes to SOC ? Who is doing well? What on Earth is a fusion center? Why classic “tiered SOCs” fall flat when dealing with modern threats? Let’s focus on a correct definition of detection as code. Can you provide yours? Detection x response engineering - is there a thing called “response engineering”? Should there be?

Guest: Chris Hoff , Chief Secure Technology Officer at Last Pass Topics: I learned that you have a really cool title that feels very “now” - Chief Secure Technology Officer? What’s the story here? Weirdly, I now feel that every CTO better be a CSTO or quit their job :-) After, ahem, not-so-recent events you had a chance to rebuild a lot of your stack, and in the process improve security. Can you share how it went, and what security capabilities are now built in? How much of a culture change did that require? Was it purely a technological transformation or you had to change what people do and how they do it? Would you recommend this to others (not the “recent events experience”, but the rebuild approach)? What benefits come from doing this before an incident occurs? Are there any? How are you handling telemetry collection and observability for security in the new stack? I am curious how this was modernized Cloud is simple , yet also complex, I think you called it “simplex.” How does this concept work?

Guest: Michael Czapinski , Security & Reliability Enthusiast, Google Topics: “How Google protects its production services” paper covers how Google's infrastructure balances several crucial aspects, including security, reliability, development speed, and maintainability. How do you prioritize these competing demands in a real-world setting? What attack vectors do you consider most critical in the production environment, and how has Google’s defenses against these vectors improved over time? Can you elaborate on the concept of Foundational services and their significance in Google's security posture? How does your security approach adapt to this vast spectrum of sensitivity and purpose of our servers and services, actually? How do you implement this principle of zero touch prod for both human and service accounts within our complex infrastructure?

Guests: Michele Chubirka , Staff Cloud Security Advocate, Google Cloud Sita Lakshmi Sangameswaran , Senior Developer Relations Engineer, Google Cloud Topics: What is your reaction to “in the cloud you are one IAM mistake away from a breach”? Do you like it or do you hate it? Or do you "it depends" it? :-) Everyone's talking about how "identity is the new perimeter" in the cloud. Can you break that down in simple terms? A lot of people say “in the cloud, you must do IAM ‘right’”. What do you think that means? What is the first or the main idea that comes to your mind when you hear it?
