Episode 1505: Run It Back

In many organizations, security exception management is a manual process, often treated as a simple compliance checkbox. While necessary, this approach can lead to unmonitored configurations that drift from their approved state, creating inconsistencies in an organization's security posture over time. How can teams evolve this process to support modern development without compromising on security?In this episode, Ashish Rajan sits down with security expert Santosh Bompally, Cloud Security Engineering Team Lead at Humana to discuss a practical framework for automating exception management. Drawing on his journey from a young tech enthusiast to a security leader at Humana, Santosh explains how to transform this process from a manual task into a scalable, continuously monitored system that enables developer velocity.Learn how to build a robust program from the ground up, starting with establishing a security baseline and leveraging policy-as-code, certified components, and continuous monitoring to create a consistent and secure cloud environment.Guest Socials -⁠⁠ ⁠Santosh's LinkedinPodcast Twitter - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@CloudSecPod⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠If you want to watch videos of this LIVE STREAMED episode and past episodes - Check out our other Cloud Security Social Channels:-⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Cloud Security Podcast- Youtube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠- ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Cloud Security Newsletter ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠- ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Cloud Security BootCamp⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠If you are interested in AI Cybersecurity, you can check out our sister podcast -⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ AI Cybersecurity PodcastQuestions asked:(00:00) Introduction(00:39) From Young Hacker to Cybersecurity Pro(02:14) The "Tick Box" Problem with Exception Management(03:17) Exposing Your Threat Landscape: The Risk of Not Automating(05:43) Where Do You Even Start?

Watch here: https://youtu.be/-NaJolceTlI Robert Forsyth interviews Dr. Michael Bird, who reflects on the relationship between liberalism and Christianity. Bird acknowledges the strengths of liberalism—its emphasis on individual liberty, pluralism, and democratic governance—but warns that when liberalism becomes detached from its Christian moral and philosophical roots, it risks undermining the very values it seeks to uphold. He argues that a purely secular liberalism can drift into relativism or moral vacuity, leaving society vulnerable to fragmentation. For liberal democracy to thrive, Bird suggests, it must remain tethered to a deeper moral vision—one that Christianity has historically provided.

Episode 1504: Pretty Girls

Episode 1503: Iran So Far Away

Se cumplen 20 años del matrimonio igualitario en España y el último barómetro del CIS ha comprobado que la ciudadanía respalda ese avance. Vamos a comentarlo con David Armenteros, vicepresidente de FELGTBI+. Y también vamos a hablar de que hay diferentes maneras de vivir y reivindicar el Orgullo LGTBIQ+ sin renunciar a su esencia. Eso hace, desde años, el Orgullo Vallekano, un orgullo crítico, no mercantilizado y repolitizado. Están sufriendo una persecución ideológica por parte del ayuntamiento de Madrid y hablamos de ello con Verónica Medina y Ámbar Tenorio, dos de sus activistas.Escuchar audio

Tras la trama de presunta organización criminal y corrupción conocida ayer sobre Santos Cerdán, Koldo García y Ábalos en el informe publicado por la Unidad Central Operativa de la Guardia Civil, el presidente del Gobierno, Pedro Sánchez, pidió disculpas y descartó un adelanto electoral. En Las Mañanas de RNE le preguntamos sobre esta tensión política a Noelia Núñez, vicesecretaria nacional de Movilización y Reto Digital del PP: "Lo que estamos viendo es una situación insostenible, no confiamos en Sumar [...] pero hemos interpelado a los socios de Junts, del PNV, de ERC o Podemos por si quieren acabar con estos escándalos de corrupción, nosotras estamos a la disposición".Respecto a si el presidente del Gobierno agotará o no la legislatura, Núñez es clara: "Espero que no porque los españoles necesitan un tiempo nuevo". Insiste en que desde el año 2024 "estamos hablando de la implicación de Santos Cerdán en la trama de Koldo [..] "la víctima de Sánchez son los españoles por el dinero que se ha robado presuntamente de todos los ciudadanos". Desde el Partido Popular desconfían de la encuesta del CIS y su apuesta por el PSOE: "No se lo cree ni Sánchez. Si el resultado es a su favor no tiene más que convocar elecciones", concluye.

It's unofficially Summertime, in America. The perfect time to go inside, crank up the AC sit on your ass, and play video games all night long. Keep it to the night though because these long hot days are going to be wasted working and fighting fascism.  All independent podcasts must take a stand. As the sources to real news are being cut off, we will have to speak louder. The RPGrinders have never been ones to shy away from politics but we do need to make the time to talk gaming. It's important to everyone's mental health to have some form of release and have friends to communicate. As scary as things are we all need a mental distraction now and then.  Let us Grinders ease your minds for just a short time.  In years past, this is the time of year we would be celebrating E3 and tons of gaming announcements. Although E3 may be as dead as democracy, here in the US, the game companies still use this time of the year to make some of their biggest announcements. Just to name a few: Final Fantasy Tactics returns again, a new Blood Stained has been announced for 2026, and the Dragon Quest 1 & 2 remake is now coming to the Switch 2.  If a long day of fighting against tyranny gets too exhausting to even feel like gaming, let the Grinders pick which movie to veg. The newest instalment of the Final Destination series has been getting a lot of hype, but only Frank can tell you if it's truly worth the money. The biggest movie in the world, for about a week, was Jack Black starring Minecraft movie, but only Eric knows if it deserved to be #1. For the streaming crowd, the Miles Morales focused Across the Spiderverse is the middle part of a trilogy, but only BM knows if they should have stopped after the first movie.  As the usual, the Grinders have a ton of Stinkos but they do seem to be getting worse as this administration gains power and ignored our laws. Entire families are being disappeared into the night under the FALSE claims of gang activity. Rubber bullets are being shot at the media and PEACEFUL protestors. Women in anti-abortion states are now at an even greater risk of losing their lives as they are now without Federal protection. Cis gender women are being increasingly targeted for harassment and violence by not looking feminine enough to the eyes of the bigots. Trans men are being forced to use women's restrooms and are being subjected to violence and humiliation. This is NOT the kind of country in which I want to live!   Breath in. Breath out. Deep breaths. No more talk about the fall of freedom in America. We just wish everyone be safe! Now let's end this on a positive note. It's not all bad news for the Grinders as we all have new toys to enjoy. Frank and Eric were each able to get the Switch 2 on launch. We hope that everyone else who wanted a Switch 2 was able to get one. While a lot of gamers are enjoying a brand-new system, only Break is enjoying his brand-old new video game systems.                 Spent the last 20 minutes of the show asking for PS4 purchasing advice. Zero recommendations purchased. Fail.    

Watch now: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HRlHwPrD850 Robert Forsyth interviews Glenn Fahey, director of the education program at the Centre for Independent Studies (CIS), who explores why a classical liberal think tank is deeply engaged in education policy. Fahey argues that education is the great enabler of freedom—central to the classical liberal vision of a society where individuals can shape their own lives. He explains that without access to high-quality education, people are denied the knowledge and skills necessary to participate in the economy, civic life, and democratic decision-making. Glenn Fahey also discusses the science of learning and how society is slowly getting back to evidence-based education approaches.

This week, we finish up this crazy story, with Eamonn being beaten by local rivals, not in the ring, but in the street, with baseball bats. This causes him to nearly retire, as he wasn't even supposed to be able to walk again, but he beat the odds, earning a new nickname. He also continues his alcoholism, while being arrested several more times, for violent outbursts, often against women. A final tragedy leaves him depressed, and broken, but he keeps pushing on. Will he survive this story??   Have a local lottery winner beat your legs into retirement, be married to, and engaged to, several women at the same time, and try your hardest to not drink, for a week, so you can get a life saving operation with Eamonn "The Terminator" Magee - Part 5!!   Check us out, every Tuesday!

We watch “Lucky Day” (Series 15, Episode 4) where Belinda mostly sits this one out and the Doctor shows up just enough to justify his paycheck. Whilst our leads get several (lucky them) days off, we meet Conrad. Conrad's a podcaster (so far I like him...) who has an interest in the Doctor (so relatable...) and dates former companion Ruby (I mean what non-problematic heterosexual CIS male wouldn't want to... right?...) until it turns out he was using her (wait... WHAT?!?) to get intel with the purpose of taking down UNIT (oh no... he didn't!). Conrad better not get his arm re-attached after it was bit off by an alien monster. That seems an oddly specific non-punishment afforded to a gaslighting tool that will have no chance of occurring. Right?

Welcome back to the Evolved Radio Podcast! In today's episode, I'm joined by Anup Ghosh with Threatmate. Anup and I deep dive into one of the MSP industry's hottest—and sometimes most confusing—topics: cybersecurity. But instead of focusing on the aftermath of a security incident (what they call “right of the boom”), we shift the conversation to proactive measures—what it really means to operate “left of the boom.” We unpack the concept of security as a utility, discuss how to utilize NIST and CIS frameworks, and explore fear-based selling. This episode is packed with insights that will help you strengthen your security posture before disaster strikes. So listen in to stay ahead of the next big threat. This episode is brought to you by Opsleader Pro. A place for MSP owners and managers to get the systems and tools they need to build a stable and growing MSP. Part group coaching, part peer group, everything you need to run a successful MSP.

This week, this wild story continues with Eamonn, fighting for world titles. He trains "Rocky 4 style", with knee deep snow, and wood chopping, but supplements thsi regimen with several drunken nights, per week, and an unhealthy amount of cocaine. He pioneers the category of "step sister porn". He also smokes cigarettes, an hour before a 12 round bout, and decides that gambling & stealing works of art are a good way to pass the time! He's also banned from half the pubs in Belfast!!

The Brothers Krynn return to share their fan fiction idea, The Kenobi Timeline. Inspired by the Legends novel, Secrets of the Jedi, the story follows the what-if scenario of Obi-Wan and Obi-Wan's lover, Siri secretly having a child. From there events unfold unexpectedly, especially with lesser-known companions of Anakin and Obi-Wan who are the focus of the narrative. Each of these characters has a fully fleshed-out backstory with motivations that weave into but never contradict the events of the Prequels.

Watch here: https://youtu.be/o6TVilPFQxo  Robert Forsyth speaks with Rohan McHugh, who contends that the liberal tradition's “contest of ideas” — though vital for intellectual refinement — does not conflict with the enduring boundaries that have sustained Western civilization for millennia. These boundaries have been upheld by long-standing institutions and validated by their outcomes. While the classical liberal model deserves affirmation, McHugh argues it should be recognized as incomplete, especially when treated as a rigid framework that excludes metaphysical foundations. As American founding father John Adams famously stated, “Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other.”

Episode 1496: Corporate Pride

In this episode of Hearts of Oak, I welcome back Todd Bensman as he prepares to join the administration to tackle immigration challenges. Todd shares insights on the dramatic shifts in border enforcement since the Trump administration, including the decline in daily crossings and the need for increased deportations amid legal and infrastructure hurdles. We discuss the complexities of federal agency coordination, strategies against drug cartels related to the fentanyl crisis, and the role of tariffs to encourage Mexican cooperation.
