Today, we are dropping another episode in our series The AI Control Loop, How enterprises govern the AI they've already deployed - sponsored by our friends at Wallarm.Wallarm is the AI Control Platform for Enterprise AI, protecting every AI workload, API, and application in production, giving CISOs the governance they need and CIOs the speed they demand. Organizations choose Wallarm for a complete inventory of APIs, AI agents, and AI apps, patented AI/ML-based threat detection and blocking that operates at production traffic speeds.We all know that you can't secure what you can't see, which is why AI discovery is a first principle for AI security, but what's really required for AI discovery? It's more than just LLMs and agents. Today's episode is entitled AI Discovery isn't just AI, and joining us is Tim Ebbers, Field CTO at Wallarm. Tim and I discuss the real requirements for AI discovery, and why the connections between assets and infrastructure are part of the puzzle.QuestionsSecurity teams often say, “You can't secure what you can't see.” In the context of AI, what exactly do they need to see? What supporting infrastructure matters most when mapping AI risk, such as APIs, cloud services, Kubernetes workloads, data stores, identities, and external integrations?Where does shadow AI typically appear first inside an enterprise environment? How can it be prevented?How do relationships between assets change the risk picture? For example, why does it matter which API an agent can call or which data source a workflow can reach?What makes AI discovery harder than traditional application or cloud asset discovery? What are the similarities and differences?How should organizations prioritize what they find? Is every AI asset equally risky?What does “continuous discovery” mean in a world where AI services can be deployed, connected, or changed in minutes?Once an organization has visibility into its AI footprint, what's next? What are the biggest gaps in today's AI security programs?Linkshttps://www.wallarm.com/https://www.linkedin.com/in/tebbers/Full AbstractMost security teams know that you can't secure what you can't see. In the context of AI, that rule turns out to be a lot harder to satisfy than it sounds.AI discovery isn't just a matter of cataloging your LLMs and agents. The real picture includes the APIs those agents call, the data sources they reach, the infrastructure they run on, and all the AI that got deployed without anyone telling security. Building that picture requires understanding relationships, not just inventories, because risk doesn't live in assets in isolation. It lives in what those assets can do together.In this episode, Tim Ebbers, Field CTO at Wallarm, examines what a complete AI control loop actually requires at the discovery stage: what needs to be visible, why the connections between assets change the risk calculation, where shadow AI tends to appear first and how it becomes unmanaged risk, and what makes AI discovery structurally different from traditional cloud or application discovery. It also looks at what organizations should do once discovery is in place, and where the biggest gaps remain in AI security programs today.If your team is building toward continuous AI governance, this is where that work starts.Our Sponsors:* Check out Cash App and use my code CASHAPP10 for a great deal: https://click.cash.app/ui6m/mt82fpxl #CashAppPod.

In this episode of The Broadband Bunch, host Pete Pizzutillo sits down with Rob Lawrence, Technology Strategist at Microsoft, to separate the reality of agentic AI from the growing hype surrounding autonomous systems. As organizations race to experiment with AI agents, Rob argues that the biggest challenges aren't the models themselves—they're the operating environments, governance frameworks, data quality, accountability structures, and organizational readiness required to deploy them successfully. Pete and Rob discuss why many AI pilots succeed while production deployments struggle, the return of disciplines like project portfolio management and process engineering, and why data governance may be the most important prerequisite for successful AI adoption. Rob also talks about the role of identity and permissions, the risks of poorly governed agents acting on flawed data, and why organizations need better observability into AI-driven workflows. Along the way, he shares advice for CIOs, CTOs, and broadband operators looking to move beyond experimentation and build a responsible foundation for agentic AI.
Agentic AI has taken off in software engineering, but most CIOs still cannot make agents work in everyday knowledge work in the enterprise. Aaron Levie, co-founder and CEO of Box, explains why that gap exists and what enterprises must change to close it. Drawing on what Box sees across its enterprise customer base, including 68% of the Fortune 500, Levie covers data access, verification, budgets, architecture, and the new roles required to realize real value from enterprise AI agents.======This episode is brought to you by Gartner IT Symposium/Xpo™.

We are delighted to bring you Series 3 of the 2026 Fiftyfaces Podcast. This set of 10 compelling conversations takes a slightly different tack to usual with a particular focus on some of the building blocks behind firms - such as strategy (as described by Matthew Kentridge), motivation (Kirstie Sneyd) and planning (Brett Hickey). We look at what happens when institutions such as public pension funds are leanly resourced and the creativity that can flow from this in terms of staffing, outsourcing and collaboration (Nadia Oumata). Staying with motivation we look at how our teachers and mentors can have play such a formative role (Kristina Hooper), at the enrichment that can come from a portfolio career (James Mitchell), at the inertia in financial markets (Crawford Spence) and the evolution of ESG (Michael Viehs). Sally Bridgeland returns to the podcast to speak about her "soon to be published" book that looks at two schools of thought and approach to the workplace - what she describes as the chess club v. the drama club.Our guests are strategists, founders, coaches, CIOs, academics, authors, cyclists . . the list goes on. Tune in from later this week for an educational journey . . Thanks to Alvine Capital Management and Franklin Templeton for sponsoring Series 3 of 2026.

Introduction Most distribution management tools were built in the nineties and haven't changed much since. Carriers and MGAs are onboarding agents manually, tracking licenses in spreadsheets, and managing compliance through email threads. Ido Deutsch spent nine years solving that problem from the inside - before realizing the solution was worth selling to the rest of the market. Deutsch is the co-founder of ProducerFlow, a distribution management platform that started as an internal tool at Agentero, the digital insurance network he helped build from a single client and barely a product in 2016 to a scaled distribution business. When carriers kept asking how Agentero was handling agent onboarding so efficiently, Deutsch knew the tool had a market of its own. ProducerFlow launched as a standalone product in March 2024. In this conversation, Josh Hollander and Deutsch dig into what carriers and MGAs consistently get wrong about distribution infrastructure, why the market no longer accepts SaaS-only tools, and why fixing your data before layering in AI is the only move that matters. Guest Bio Ido Deutsch is the Co-Founder of ProducerFlow and Head of Go-to-Market at Agentero, a digital insurance network connecting carriers, MGAs, and independent agencies. A serial entrepreneur who grew up in Israel and built three companies before moving to the US in 2014, he joined Agentero's founder Luis Pino while still at Berkeley's MBA program and spent the next nine years building the company's distribution network and technology from scratch. ProducerFlow, launched in 2024, automates agent onboarding, licensing, compliance, and distribution management for carriers and MGAs. Key Topics • Built from necessity, not theory - ProducerFlow wasn't designed in a whiteboard session. It was built because Agentero was onboarding hundreds of agencies a month and couldn't keep up manually. The existing market solutions were either too old, too rigid, or too expensive. So they built their own, and carriers started asking to use it. • The best clients are switching from something - Deutsch's most successful clients aren't building from scratch. They've already tried one of the legacy tools, overpaid, been underdelivered, and are ready for something that actually integrates with their existing stack. That frustration is the clearest buying signal. • SaaS-only is no longer enough - The market has shifted. Carriers don't want a tool; they want an outcome. ProducerFlow offers a full managed service for clients who want to outsource compliance entirely, or infrastructure-only for those who want to run it themselves. The key insight: whoever wins in distribution tech has to be willing to do the work, not just sell the platform. • Fix the data before you touch the AI - Deutsch's consistent message across the conversation: AI is only as good as the data it runs on. He's seen top-five carriers and major brokers with years of data that's disorganized, siloed, and hard to query. Layering AI on top of bad infrastructure gives confident wrong answers. Fix the foundation first. • Speed to onboard is the core metric - The time from meeting a new agency to the moment they can quote and bind is ProducerFlow's north star. Faster onboarding means better agent experience, higher retention, and more written premium. Everything else is secondary. • The CIO is gaining ground - Deutsch has watched the power dynamics inside carrier organizations shift. Head of AI titles are proliferating, but the real influence is moving toward CIOs and information security leaders as data privacy, AI governance, and "where does my data go" questions dominate every sales cycle. Notable Quotes "We couldn't find anything that worked for us. So we built our own. And then carriers started asking, how do you do that?" "Our best clients typically tried the solution already. They overpaid, were underdelivered, and then they see how ours works. We try not to over promise, but we definitely over deliver." "The market doesn't really accept SaaS-only tools anymore. They want you to solve an outcome, replace a whole function, and do the work." "Fix your data and fix how you look at things. Everything is going to be based on that. AI is only as good as your infrastructure. If the data isn't right, it will just give you very confident answers that are wrong."

Fred Laluyaux has spent 25 years on the same problem: enterprises are drowning in decisions no human should be making. With 50 million digitized decisions across companies like Unilever, Exxon, and Hershey, he now has the data to prove it. When operators override the machine, performance goes down. Not sometimes — in aggregate, every time. In this episode, Fred breaks down the agentic vs. deterministic tradeoff most CIOs are getting wrong, why the software stack most companies rely on today is heading for collapse, and what a company whose entire stack is just SAP and Aera tells you about where enterprise software is going. Hit play. 3 Takeaways: After 50 million digitized decisions, the data is clear: when operators override the machine, performance drops. One Aera customer runs their entire operation on SAP and Aera. Nothing in between. That's where the stack is going. Fred calls them "born in digital" decisions — they can't be made by humans because the value is gone before the meeting starts. Chapters: [03:08] Fred's Career Journey and Lessons Learned [05:17] Why Aera Was Created [05:45] The Vision for a Self-Driving Enterprise [08:28] The Decision Memory Problem in AI [10:28] The Reality of AI ROI [11:58] From Analytics to Decision Intelligence [12:56] Humans vs Fully Autonomous Systems [15:28] What It Means to Digitize Decisions [18:42] How Aera Actually Works [22:42] Trust, Governance, and the Waymo Analogy [27:51] Deterministic vs Agentic AI [29:13] The Cloud Capacity Wake-Up Call [30:15] Where Aera Fits in the Enterprise Stack [31:54] Fast ROI and the “4-4-4” Framework [32:55] Why the Software Stack Is Collapsing [36:21] Delayering Organizations and New AI Roles [39:02] Born-Digital Companies and Micro-Decisions [43:57] Explainability, Governance, and Feedback Loops About Fred: Fred Laluyaux is Co-Founder, President, and CEO of Aera Technology, the leader in decision intelligence and creator of Aera, the first decision intelligence agent. An entrepreneur and Silicon Valley veteran, Fred brings an impressive track record building successful startups and driving technology innovation. Prior to launching Aera, Fred was the CEO of Anaplan, which he grew to a $1 billion valuation. He has held several executive positions at SAP, Business Objects, and ALG Software. As a thought leader on the future of work and host of the Decision Intelligence podcast, Fred frequently shares his vision with influencers through media interviews and speaking engagements at industry conferences. His views have been published in business and trade publications. A technology and startup advisor, Fred is an investor and active board member of several startups in the U.S. and Europe. Guest Highlights: "We're in 2026, and the reality is that our models have not changed for 100 years. We're still relying on people to decide how to forecast, how to allocate inventory, how to change a plan." "We've got enough data, I mentioned the 50 million decisions, to demonstrate that whenever the humans are touching the system and are messing with the recommendation, they actually degrade the performance." "The autonomy is not another version or better version of my planning tool or my replenishment tool. It replaces the need to have a human touch with that software, and therefore I don't need that software anymore."

Content's value is in the intelligence it brings, regardless of what system it's found in. But there is a lot of enterprise content across many, many systems.On the Mostly Unstructured Podcast, KeyMark CMO Clay Tuten sits down with Mike Askren, VP of Product at Hyland, on how document management and ECM are becoming an intelligence layer for agentic AI, and the right size and scale problems to tackle with agents.Topics explored: Why has enterprise value moved from storing and securing content to extracting intelligence from it? How content federation connects AI services to content across on-prem, cloud, and hyperscaler systems. What an enterprise context engine does, and why the relationships between documents matter more than the engine itself. Why agentic governance matters so much. Monitoring, coaching, and shutting down agents that hallucinate or run on stale instructions. Why the highest-ROI AI work comes from the processes that are least exciting, but have the highest volume of occurrence. Questions this episode answers: What is the intelligence layer in enterprise content management? How much enterprise data is unstructured, and why does it matter for AI? What is content federation and why is it needed for enterprise AI? What is agent governance and how is it different from data governance? How do you get ROI from AI without replacing your existing systems? Where should a CIO start when moving ECM into an AI intelligence layer? What is intelligent document processing (IDP) and how does it relate to agentic automation?

Are businesses heading for an AI pricing time bomb? With companies like Uber suddenly raising concerns about the inability to draw a clear line between token usage and visible improvements, there is a growing question about the real cost of AI and agents.On this episode of the ITPro Podcast, Bobby Hellard and Ross Kelly are joined by the CEO of Mendix, Raymond Kok, to discuss the different scenarios facing businesses as the true cost of AI hits home.Highlights“I think more and more the conversation is shifting in that direction. So, starting with what are the business-relevant use cases, and I'm saying business relevant on purpose, because there are plenty of interesting use cases around generative AI, but it's about the business-relevant use cases. Then it's about what is the job that needs to get done, and then to your question, how do you actually budget for agents like you budget for your human workforce in any company? And I think slowly but surely that narrative is changing, right, and I think what we're going to go see is that after the IPO of Ventropic and Open AI, the prices will further soar, and I think this conversation will become more and more important.”“I'm glad that actually you're talking about it in your podcast, because I think it's now really becoming an issue, meaning that CEOs and CIOs were obviously promoting their employees to become AI literate and started to make AI tooling available to their workforce. 24 months ago, they were able to sign attractive deals with the big technology providers and get their people going, but now the bill is starting to show up. It used to be maybe 10, 20, maybe 50k a month for a larger company, but it's now moving into the hundreds of ks, and guess what, because this is also usage-based, it's very hard to control, right, so most of the monetization models, as you know, of these large language providers is based on usage.”'One-size-fits-all' agent governance sets enterprises up to failUber caps usage of AI tools like Claude Code to manage costs (Bloomberg)Uber's eye-watering AI bill shows enterprises are ‘still measuring AI success through consumption rather than outcomes' – and it's warping our perception of ROI and productivityCould rising token costs boost interest in on-premises hardware?

Today, we are kicking off a new series entitled The AI Control Loop, How enterprises govern the AI they've already deployed - sponsored by our friends at Wallarm.Wallarm is the AI Control Platform for Enterprise AI, protecting every AI workload, API, and application in production, giving CISOs the governance they need and CIOs the speed they demand. Organizations choose Wallarm for a complete inventory of APIs, AI agents, and AI apps, patented AI/ML-based threat detection and blocking that operates at production traffic speeds.Today's episode is entitled AI Security is API Security, and joining us is Tim Erlin, VP of Product Marketing at Wallarm. We discuss the foundational link between AI security and API security, digging into the role that APIs play in the dev, deployment, and operations of AI. We explore how they contribute to the risk profile of AI transformation projects, and how securing APIs is critical for successful AI transformation.QuestionsWhen people hear “AI security,” they often think first about models, prompts, or training data. Why do you argue that AI security starts with APIs?Where do you see organizations underestimating API risk as they move AI projects from pilot to production?How does the rise of AI agents change the stakes for API security compared with traditional application architectures?What are the most common API security assumptions that break down once AI systems begin taking action autonomously?Wallarm's ThreatStats research points to APIs as a major overlap point for AI vulnerabilities and exploited vulnerabilities. What does that tell us about where attackers are likely to focus?How should security leaders think differently about authentication, authorization, and API abuse when the “user” may be an AI agent rather than a human?What is one practical step teams can take today to strengthen API security before AI adoption expands further?Once you accept that AI security depends on APIs, what do organizations actually need to discover before they can protect it?Linkshttps://www.wallarm.com/https://www.linkedin.com/in/tim-erlin/Full AbstractIn the first episode of the AI Control Loop series, Tim Erlin, VP Product at Wallarm, examines why AI security and API security are the same problem approached from different angles, and what organizations need to discover before they can protect either one.Every AI model needs data to act on. Every AI agent needs services to call. Every AI workflow needs integrations to function. The connective tissue running through all of it is APIs, which means the security posture of any AI system is inseparable from the security posture of the APIs underneath it.That link is not theoretical. APIs are already the most targeted attack surface in enterprise environments, and AI is making that problem significantly larger. Agents that act autonomously on behalf of users do not just consume APIs the way traditional applications do. They discover them, invoke them dynamically, chain them across workflows, and do all of it at a speed and scale that makes human review impractical. The authentication assumptions, rate limiting strategies, and abuse detection models that worked for human-driven API traffic were not designed for this, and the gaps are not subtle.Most organizations moving AI from pilot to production are underestimating how much of their AI risk surface is actually API risk surface. Shadow APIs that were never inventoried, overpermissioned integrations that made sense for a human user but not for an autonomous agent, authentication patterns that cannot distinguish a legitimate AI session from an abused one. Securing AI at the foundational level means answering the API question first: what APIs does the AI touch, what can it do through them, and what would an attacker be able to reach if any part of that surface were compromised.Our Sponsors:* Check out Cash App and use my code CASHAPP10 for a great deal: https://click.cash.app/ui6m/mt82fpxl #CashAppPod.

Enterprise AI agents fail consistently in production, not because of model limitations, but because they lack a live, temporally aware context layer grounded in the actual current state of the business. In this episode, Ravi Marwaha, Chief Operating Officer & Chief Technology Product Officer at Arango, explores how treating context as infrastructure—rather than a data pipeline problem—enables agents to reason accurately, explain their decisions, and deliver measurable outcomes across customer support, semiconductor engineering, and clinical trial site selection. The discussion covers five practical frameworks for CIOs and chief data officers on building real-time, explainable context layers on top of existing enterprise systems, without ripping and replacing current infrastructure.

Most enterprises are renters, not owners, of their technology and AI. Raffi Krikorian, Chief Technology Officer of Mozilla, explains why dependence on a handful of closed model providers means losing control over model behavior, pricing, and your own data.In CXOTalk episode 920, Krikorian lays out where open-source AI actually wins in the enterprise, how lock-in happens quietly, and what CIOs and CTOs should do about it now. Krikorian draws on his experience building infrastructure at Twitter and running the self-driving division at Uber to ground the discussion in real engineering and economic tradeoffs, not hype.YOU'LL DISCOVER✅ Why 85% of enterprises believed they could switch AI vendors, but only about 30% actually could when they tried✅ The "renters vs. owners" framing and what it means to control your AI destiny✅ Why Krikorian wants data "protected by architecture, not legal handshakes"✅ How Pinterest reportedly saved on the order of $10 million in a single quarter by switching from closed to open models✅ Why IT is becoming "the HR team for agents," and the read/write "dangerous triangle" of agentic permissions✅ The case for recording your prompts and running your own evaluations instead of trusting public benchmarks✅ Why roughly 70% of enterprise GPUs sit idle, and the missing "LAMP stack for AI" that could put them to work✅ How closed "validation machines" can quietly steer answers toward sponsored outcomes⏱️ TIMESTAMPS (estimated, verify before publishing)0:00 Renters vs. owners: who controls enterprise AI2:26 The risks of depending on closed model makers6:23 How lock-in happens and where open source fits9:53 Regression testing and building your own evals13:24 Pricing instability and the post-IPO cost question23:31 Governance: IT as HR for AI agents32:38 Can a small organization own its AI stack end-to-end?38:47 Validation machines, trust, and sponsored answers43:39 Keeping humans at the center, not in the loop47:23 Can open source beat big tech in AI?51:39 Inside Mozilla.ai: Otari, CQ, Octanus, Thunderbolt55:21 The "rebel alliance" strategy
AI implementation in higher education is often framed as a technology question. California State University treated it as change management with technology as the catalyst, rolling out ChatGPT Edu to 22 universities in 18 months while running the largest AI survey ever conducted at a single university system. In this episode of the Changing Higher Ed® podcast, Dr. Drumm McNaughton speaks with Dr. Leslie Kennedy, Assistant Vice Chancellor for Academic Technology Services at the California State University Office of the Chancellor, about how the system designed and executed its generative AI implementation and what the Ahead of the Curve survey of 94,060 respondents reveals about AI adoption, faculty engagement, and student behavior. Drawing on her work co-leading the academic side of CSU's GenAI initiative, Kennedy explains the governance structure that made the rollout possible, the campus-level training infrastructure that scaled adoption across 22 universities, and the survey findings that pushed back on common assumptions about cheating, faculty resistance, and AI access gaps. This conversation is especially relevant for presidents, provosts, boards, and CIOs evaluating how to move from AI policy discussions to systemwide implementation. Topics Covered: The sequencing model behind CSU's 18-month AI rollout Findings from the largest AI survey ever conducted at a single university system Why faculty are the only group reporting both positive and negative AI impact How CSU funded faculty-led innovation through the AI Educational Innovations Challenge The communication challenges of running AI implementation across 22 independent campuses What CSU plans next: hackathons, embedded credentials, and domain-specific tools Real-World Examples Discussed: The AI Educational Innovations Challenge received 417 faculty applications against an expected 50, with 63 funded at $3M ChatGPT Edu deployment across all 22 CSU campuses, now at 225,000 active accounts Student hackathons run with IBM Watson, AWS, NVIDIA, and Cal Poly partners across multiple disciplines Faculty-led podcasts (My Robot Teacher from Cal Maritime and Unfixed from Chico State) that built peer-to-peer training resources Three Key Takeaways for Leadership: Sequencing matters more than budget or technology. Faculty resolution first, governance second, enterprise tool third, training and funded experimentation in parallel. Faculty carry more complexity than staff or students in AI implementation, and need different support, training cadence, and communication than other groups. Communication is a continuous operating discipline, not a launch campaign. The technology changes faster than any single training cycle. This episode offers a practical view of what large-scale AI implementation actually looks like in higher education, and why the institutions getting it right are treating it as change management work supported by technology rather than a technology rollout in search of governance.

Dave wraps Season 7 of Reboot IT with Gretchen Steenstra, VP, Client Strategy at DelCor, and a discussion on how organizations can get unstuck and find success with their technology initiatives. Gretchen shares insights from her experience working across multiple organizations, exploring the balance between strategy and execution, the importance of adoption and change management, and how CEOs, CIOs, and business leaders each contribute to achieving success. Themes and Topics:The Balance Between Strategy and ExecutionOrganizations often lean too heavily toward either visionary strategy or detailed execution; success requires both.Strategy sets direction, but execution delivers results and the two must continuously inform each other.Periodic “zoom out” moments are essential to ensure execution is still aligned with strategic goals.Alignment Across the OrganizationTechnology is no longer separate. IT plans must align directly with organizational strategy.CIOs play a critical role in connecting leadership vision with operational reality.Alignment requires continuous communication between leadership, staff, and partners.The Role of the CEO and LeadershipCEOs should connect high-level vision to day-to-day operations without getting lost in the details. Leadership can remove blockers, balance priorities, and champion initiatives effectively. Leadership alignment helps teams understand how their work contributes to the organizational mission.The CIO as a Translator and NegotiatorCIOs act as intermediaries between business needs, technology teams, vendors, and security requirements.They must balance usability and security, often negotiating trade-offs between the two.CIOs also serve as escalation points when projects stall or teams hit roadblocks.Adoption and Change ManagementThe real work begins after launch. Long-term adoption determines success.Organizations often underinvest in post-launch behaviors and process changes.Preventing “backslide” requires ongoing reinforcement and attention to how people actually work.Building Tech Literacy and Cross-Functional CollaborationBusiness leaders must develop a baseline understanding of how systems connect and interact.Cross-functional planning (marketing, finance, IT, membership) helps surface risks early.Mapping the full customer journey, from awareness to transaction to delivery, improves outcomes.

If your leadership team is always busy but never quite focused on the right things and you're still the one who has to sort out which initiatives actually matter, this episode is for you.Teresa Duran, Chief Information Officer at Tree Top Inc., is an award-winning technology executive with over two decades of experience leading large-scale transformations across multiple industries, including biotech, pharma, and nonprofit. She was recognized with the 2023 SeattleCIO ORBIE Award for leading the largest transformation in Make-A-Wish America's 43-year history.In this conversation, Teresa unpacks why organizations, even well-resourced ones, keep chasing the wrong priorities, and how the CEOs and CIOs who actually move fast build simple, repeatable filters so their leaders can make better calls without waiting for direction from the top.You'll learn:- Why "too many initiatives" is a leadership structure problem, not a workload problem and the top-five filter that cuts the noise fast- How to tell the difference between what's important and what actually has impact at the company level- What effective decision-making looked like when Teresa's team delivered a three-year technology roadmap in one year, during COVID- Why bringing your technology leader into M&A and divestiture planning early reduces risk and increases your company's attractiveness to buyers- How to prepare your leadership bench to stay ahead of AI disruption without chasing every tool that hits the marketIf your regional managers or functional leaders are still running to you every time something feels uncertain, or your company is spending money on tools and projects that aren't moving the needle, this episode gives you a practical framework to change that.Listen now. Then share this with another CEO or operator who's tired of sorting through the noise so their team doesn't have to.
In this episode of the Finovate podcast, host Greg speaks with Oren Buskila, CEO and co-founder of Cobalt, a FinovateSpring 2026 Best of Show winner. Cobalt has developed enterprise architectural intelligence specifically designed for financial institutions, addressing a critical challenge in modern banking: the lack of understanding of complex system dependencies.Banks operate on enormously intricate systems comprising their own code and dozens of third-party vendor applications, yet most institutions don't fully comprehend how these systems interconnect and depend on one another. This knowledge gap leads to significant problems, including development slowness—with banks spending 70% of their IT budgets on maintenance rather than innovation—and costly production failures that can result in millions of dollars in direct and indirect costs when changes are deployed without full visibility into system dependencies.Cobalt's solution automatically maps both IT systems and business processes in real-time by scanning existing data sources including event logs, API logs, code, and database tables. The platform creates a comprehensive topology map that aligns business processes with their underlying technical infrastructure, allowing banks to see exactly which systems support which business functions and understand the full impact of any proposed changes. This "bank on a page" architecture view enables technical teams to anticipate the consequences of modifications before implementation, preventing failures and ensuring safer deployments. The platform maintains a live, continuously updated view of the system architecture by taking frequent snapshots that can be compared to detect changes and investigate issues, a capability that was previously impossible with manual architecture mapping methods.The demo at FinovateSpring resonated strongly with attendees, particularly technical leaders like CIOs and CTOs from medium and large banks who recognized the transformative potential of having complete visibility into their systems. The presentation also attracted significant interest from venture capitalists and leaders from smaller banks and credit unions, the latter group seeing opportunities to introduce agentic AI into their operations by first mapping existing business processes. Looking ahead, Cobalt positions itself as the essential architectural layer for AI-driven development in banking, as the industry moves toward having AI agents generate, maintain, and modify code at unprecedented velocities—a shift that will require the contextual understanding and change management capabilities that Cobalt provides.More info:Cobalt AI: https://www.getcobalt.ai/; https://www.linkedin.com/company/getcobalt/Oren Buskila: https://www.linkedin.com/in/oren-buskila/Greg Palmer: https://www.linkedin.com/in/gregbpalmer/Finovate: https://www.finovate.com; https://www.linkedin.com/company/finovate-conference-series/FinovateSpring: https://informaconnect.com/finovatespring/#Finovate #FinovateSpring #Banking #banks #creditunions #personalization #data #communitybanks #AI #backoffice #corebanking #digitaladoption #podcast #fintechpodcast #financialservices #innovation #digitraltransformation #fintech #finserv #modernization
For twenty years the security playbook started in the same place, find a vulnerability, prioritize it, and patch it. Doug Merritt, CEO of Aviatrix and former CEO of Splunk, thinks that playbook is quietly breaking, and his explanation has nothing to do with anyone being careless. The economics of offense changed underneath us, and most security programs are still funded as if they did not.Why this conversation mattersDoug has sat in two seats that give this argument weight. At Splunk he evangelized detect and respond, and now at Aviatrix he is arguing that detect and respond, while still important, is no longer enough on its own. That is not a vendor pivot so much as an honest reading of the incentives, and it lands differently coming from someone who built a business on the previous era. If you are a practitioner watching AI rewrite the attacker's cost curve, or a leader trying to defend a prevention-heavy budget to a board, this conversation reframes where the money should actually go.Key takeawaysOffense became a compute problem, and that is permanent. Finding and exploiting a vulnerability is a search task, and the cost per token has been deflating faster than Moore's Law. That is why this is a structural shift rather than a few headline demos, and why throwing compute at offense keeps getting cheaper and faster.Patching has a ceiling that offense does not. Every patch carries the risk of breaking something, so testing, deployment, and organizational friction cap how fast defenders can move. When vulnerability discovery scales freely and patching cannot, "find more and patch faster" turns into a race you are structurally set up to lose.The interesting question is not how they got in, it is where they went. Attackers increasingly arrive with valid credentials and move through the trust graph that runs across cloud services and CI/CD pipelines, including malware injected into trusted repositories. Once they look legitimate inside the environment, lateral movement and egress are where the real damage happens.Cloud rewarded velocity, and security paid the bill. Cloud providers made identity default-deny because someone has to own and pay for a workload, but they left networking wide open because their economic engine is developer velocity and security reads as friction. New agentic frameworks inherit that same wide-open default, connected to the internet with little oversight.A strong identity stance is necessary and not sufficient. Identity answers whether someone is allowed to act, not whether the action is an attack, which is why attackers log in rather than hack in. Human, agent, and workload identities are genuinely different, and workload identity in particular has been underserved.Containment is about blast radius, not about keeping everyone out. The mindset shift is to accept that breaches will occur and to govern every path a workload can take, so an incident stays local and recoverable. Done well, containment holds firm whether or not anyone has detected the attack yet.Blast radius has to become a boardroom metric. Doug's argument is that CISOs, CIOs, CEOs, and boards should be able to answer how reachable anything is from anything else, and treat that number as something to drive down deliberately rather than discover after an incident.AI is the reason containment is finally workable. The historic blocker to micro-segmentation was cognitive load across tens or hundreds of thousands of workloads. AI is strong at synthesis and pattern matching, which makes a staged path of observe, discover, monitor, and then enforce realistic, ideally starting with the internet-exposed workloads that have no filtering at all.

Join Angel Horvat, Founder and CEO of AI Readi, for a candid evaluation of why the corporate rush into generative AI is grinding to an unexpected halt. Despite massive infrastructure investments, the enterprise journey is hitting a hard wall: while 88% of organizations have initiated AI pilots, a staggering 94% remain permanently trapped in pilot purgatory. Drawing on his years leading AI and data strategy at Nike (EMEA) and Gartner, Angel reveals that these failures are almost never a failure of the tech—they are structural failures of the organization itself. In this episode, we discover how to bridge the gap between initial demo and scaled business value.

This week on More or Less, Amir Efrati of The Information joins Jessica, Brit, and Dave to unpack the growing intersection of AI, government, and national security, from the rumored stalled executive AI order to why frontier model companies may soon face deeper U.S. oversight and pre-release access demands. The group debates whether slowing AI adoption is really a pricing and UX problem, why AI agents are causing token consumption to explode, and whether most consumers even want an always-on personal agent. They also dive into the geopolitical implications of data centers and open-source software, AI's impact on entertainment and voice cloning, Hollywood's anxiety over originality, and the strange new world where even papal writings prompt questions about whether AI had a hand in shaping the message.Chapters:1:57 — AI Predictions, Whispering to Models & Forecasting the Future4:37 — AI, National Security & the Trump Administration6:52 — The Pope's AI Document, Closed Models & Security Risks11:56 — AI Regulation, Job Fears & Public Sentiment15:45 — Is AI Adoption Slowing Down?
