We will discuss all things Cloud with an emphasis on Cloud Security.
It was episode 18 in October 2020 when we first had Shira Shamban, Co-Founder and CEO of Solvo on TalkingCloud. Back then, she and David had only recently launched their cloud security startup so, in this episode, we get to hear how much Shira and her team at Solvo have learned and, how much they have evolved and grown.
Supply chain breaches are in the headlines like never before...and seemingly increasing every day. Exacerbating the risks is the rapid and widespread increase in use of cloud including SaaS, code repositories and open-source code use. In this episode you'll hear Eran Orzel, Chief Revenue Officer (CRO) and Founding Member at Argon Security discuss the use cases they address and some of the unique aspects of the Argon solution.
In episode 37 I have the pleasure to speak with Sitaraman (Ram) Lakshminarayanan, Director, Security Architecture at Guardant Health...As you will hear, I find it easier to write Ram's name than to say it! :^D
Ram has several years of experience as a security architect. His roots are in software development and this provides him with keen insights and understandings of the challenges in building and securing todays cloud native environments and applications.
In this episode, we are introduced to "AccessOps" by the creator of the term and co-founder of stealth-startup Stack Identity. Venkat Raghavan discusses his current passion; addressing the challenges of access and access control in the cloud-native world. Today, virtually everything has an 'identity and these identities are given access to data. Not all of these are human. In fact, many are non-human including micro-services, functions, applications, and other assets. Regardless of their form, all 'identities' need to be managed. AccessOps is the new category Stack Identity has created to address this exploding cloud-native challenge.
Well, it's taking a bit longer than I'd hoped but, I finally got the opportunity to sit down with one of the best cyber security professionals in the business. He's been at the same company for more than 20 years and has repeatedly reinvented himself and the cyber security offerings available from his employer. He has led the various cyber security practices of this giant telco since he first created them! I hope you enjoy episode #35 with my special guest, Terry Hect, Director, Security Center of Excellence at AT&T.
Nearly a decade ago Nick Lippis Co-Founded ONUG, and today the ONUG community has expanded to over 5,000 strong and continues growing. In this episode, you'll hear Nick discuss the exciting project ONUG is spearheading to provide enterprises with, as he explains, critical and currently missing "...connective tissue..." for multi-cloud, hybrid deployments. You'll hear Nick explain their plans for a "cupcake, birthday cake, and wedding cake" and how you can get involved. To learn more about ONUG go to www.onug.net
If you've ever heard of Aston Martin and know, even a little, about cars you know, Aston Martin is not a typical automobile. The same could be said about their CISO; Robin is anything but typical. In our thirty-third episode, we travel across the pond (again) to the UK to talk with Robin Smith, Head of Cyber and Information Security. Hear why Robin quotes Einstein ("We can't solve problems by using the same kind of thinking we used when we created them.") and believes the problems and challenges we face in the cloud will take a new way of thinking...what he calls liquid thinking.
In episode 32, we speak with Mr. Joe Sullivan, and while you may not know or recognize his name, I'm betting every penny I have, you know one or more of his previous employers where he led cybersecurity. Ever heard of eBay, PayPal, Uber, or Facebook?
Now at Cloudflare, Inc., Joe and I have a fun and engaging conversation covering numerous topics including zero trust, the good and bad of the internet, and the challenges securing today's hyper-connected computing environment.
In this episode, my conversation is with Sean Mcdermott, President & CEO, Founder RedMonocle | Windward Consulting Group. This recording of Talking Cloud is sure to not disappoint! With +24 years as a consultant, Sean offers several keen insights and considerations. You can learn more about Sean and his company, RedMonocle here: https://www.redmonocle.com/
For our 30th episode, we have a highly experienced cloud executive as our guest. Mr. Dustin Milberg has nearly as many years in the industry as TalkingCloud has episodes. As the Field CTO, Dustin engages with executives every day discussing their journey to the cloud. Hear Dustin share his thoughts, insights, and recommendations and why he says migrating to the cloud is all about the journey, not the destination. You'll also hear Dustin subtly remind me not everyone is familiar with an Etch-a-Sketch!
