In deze diepgaande aflevering van Techzine Talks duiken Coen en Erik in de complexe wereld van sovereign cloud oplossingen. Ze ontleden hoe Microsoft, Google Cloud en AWS vergelijkbare beloftes doen over datasoevereiniteit en onderzoeken de cruciale vraag: kan Europa wel zonder deze Amerikaanse hyperscalers? De podcast biedt een kritische analyse van datacenters, encryptie-oplossingen, key-management, confidential computing, Europese partners en personeel, maar ook de praktische en financiële uitdagingen van een echt Europees cloud-alternatief.Aanleiding voor deze discussie was een Microsoft AI-event waar CEO Satya Nadella sprak over sovereign cloud, wat Coen inspireerde om dit maar eens te duiden in een Techzine Talks aflevering. Terwijl steeds meer Europese organisaties en overheden zorgen uiten over datasoevereiniteit, investeren Amerikaanse cloudgiganten miljarden in Europese datacenters en sovereign cloudoplossingen.Hoofdstukken:00:00 Introductie en aanleiding voor het onderwerp 02:15 Wat is sovereign cloud en waarom is het zo belangrijk geworden?04:20 De Amerikaanse Cloud Act en de implicaties voor Europese data07:30 Key-management en encryptie als beschermingslaag 10:15 Confidential computing uitgelegd 12:40 Disconnected en air-gapped oplossingen voor kritieke omgevingen15:30 Microsoft 365 Local en de beperkingen met Copilot 18:45 De AI-paradox: innovatie versus soevereiniteit 19:20 Transparantie en groeiende Europese zorgen (ICC-case) 23:45 Waarom een volledig Europees alternatief praktisch onhaalbaar is28:15 De enorme investeringen van hyperscalers in Europa 31:50 Is het realistisch om zonder Amerikaanse cloudtechnologie te opereren? 34:00 Conclusie en praktisch toekomstperspectiefDe podcast belicht hoe sovereign cloud oplossingen worden aangeboden door de grote Amerikaanse cloudproviders, maar legt ook bloot waarom een volledig Europees alternatief praktisch en financieel onhaalbaar lijkt. Coen en Erik bespreken de mogelijkheden van key management door Europese partijen, air-gapped oplossingen, en hoe organisaties toch veilig gebruik kunnen maken van Amerikaanse cloudtechnologie zonder hun soevereiniteit volledig op te geven.Een must-listen voor IT-beslissers, beleidsmakers en iedereen die betrokken is bij strategische cloudkeuzes in een steeds complexer geopolitiek landschap.#SovereignCloud #CloudComputing #Microsoft #AWS #GoogleCloud #DataSoevereiniteit #GDPR #CloudAct #Encryptie #AirGapped #TechzineTalks #Cybersecurity #CloudSecurity #EuropeseCloud #Hyperscalers #ConfidentialComputing #ITInfrastructuur #DataPrivacy #TechPodcast #Datacenter #CloudStrategy #DigitaleSoevereiniteit #Microsoft365Local #Copilot #GeneratieveAI #CloudRegulering #GAIA-X #EUCloudInitiative #DataResidentie #KeyManagementAbonneer je op Techzine Talks via Apple Podcasts, Spotify, YouTube of je favoriete podcast-app voor meer diepgaande analyses van enterprise technologie en blijf op de hoogte van de nieuwste ontwikkelingen in de IT-wereld.Bezoek www.techzine.nl voor meer artikelen, analyses en achtergronden over dit en andere enterprise IT-onderwerpen.

For years, security has been treated as a necessary evil - a budget line item that CFOs approve without truly understanding its business impact. But what if cloud security could be a revenue driver, an efficiency enabler, and a cost-saving powerhouse? In this episode, Dani Woolf sat down with Chris Thomas, Chief Revenue Officer at AlgoSec, to break down how CFOs should really evaluate cloud security investments, not just as a defensive measure, but as a business accelerator. They dove into the cost of inaction, the inefficiencies draining budgets, and the financial case for security automation - all from a CFO's perspective. If you're still treating security as an overhead cost, this conversation will change the way you think about it. To get a demo of AlgoSec, visit: https://www.algosec.com/lp/request-a-demo

The world of cloud security is evolving at breakneck speed. Are traditional tools and strategies enough to combat the sophisticated threats of tomorrow? In this episode, we're joined by Elad Koren, Vice President of Product Management from Palo Alto Networks, to explore the dynamic journey of cloud security.Elad shares his insights on how the landscape has shifted, moving beyond the era of CSPM and CNAPP as standalone solutions. We delve into why a cloud-aware Security Operations Center (SOC) is no longer a luxury but a necessity, and what "runtime security" truly means in today's complex, multi-cloud environments.The conversation also tackles the double-edged sword of Artificial Intelligence, how it's empowering both attackers with new capabilities and defenders with advanced tools. Elad discusses the critical considerations for organizations undergoing digital transformation, the importance of AI governance, and provides actionable advice for companies at all stages of their cloud adoption journey, from securing code from day one to building holistic visibility across their entire infrastructure.Guest Socials - Elad's Linkedin Podcast 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(01:38) How has Cloud Security Evolved?(04:21) Why CNAPP is not enough anymore?(07:13) What is runtime security?(07:54) Impact of AI on Cloud Security(11:41) What to include in your cybersecurity program in 2025?(16:47) The Fun SectionThank you to this episode's sponsor - PaloAlto Networks Resources discussed during the episode:PaloAlto Networks RSAC Announcement 1PaloAlto Networks RSAC Announcement 2

Send us a textWhen most people think about cybersecurity careers, they envision ethical hackers or security analysts huddled behind screens of scrolling code. But as our guest Brian Eidelman, VP of Cloud Engineering at Oracle, reveals, the reality is far more diverse and fascinating.Security careers exist in what Brian describes as a three-dimensional landscape. Across one axis, you have different job functions ranging from compliance specialization and policy development to threat research, forensics, and security tool development. Along another dimension are organizational environments—government, financial services, healthcare, technology companies—each with unique security challenges. The third dimension encompasses technical specializations like network security, encryption, identity management, and increasingly, cloud security.Identity management emerges as a critical focal point in our discussion. Having been one of the original developers of SiteMinder (a single sign-on solution), Brian traces how identity has evolved from simple password systems to today's sophisticated multi-factor authentication and passwordless approaches. In cloud environments where traditional network boundaries have dissolved, "identity is your new perimeter." This shift has created entirely new disciplines around non-human identities—managing how applications, workloads, and services authenticate to one another.The podcast explores how cloud security differs from traditional approaches, requiring guardrails that maintain security without sacrificing the agility that makes cloud computing valuable. We dig into how the democratization of resources has created new security challenges as developers gain direct access to infrastructure that would have been tightly controlled in on-premises environments.For those looking to break into the field, Brian offers surprisingly practical advice: unlike networking, where certifications often serve as career milestones, security values demonstrable skills and domain knowledge more highly. His recommendation? When security issues arise in your current technical role, run toward them rather than away. Volunteering for security-related projects and demonstrating curiosity can open doors more effectively than certificates alone.Ready to explore the multidimensional world of cloud security careers?

The FedRAMP program at the General Services Administration has enabled agencies to safely use commercial cloud computing for more than a decade. Last month the GSA launched an update called FedRAMP 20-X. It's designed to make it easier and faster for vendors to get the authorization they need to take on federal customers. For how it looks to industry, we turn to the founder and CEO of RegScale, Travis Howerton.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

In this 30-minute episode, Jon and Lewis delve into the root causes of Europe's recent Spain, France and Portugal blackouts, scrutinising grid-failure reports and probing whether a sophisticated cyber-attack might have been to blame. They then analyse Meta's newly unveiled AI alongside the arrival of Qwen 3 and Google's AgentSpace update, and how Jon progressed with integrating it into Google Drive to streamline internal teams.Next, they unpack NASA's groundbreaking study showing how three massive dams have redistributed Earth's water mass, subtly altering the planet's shape and extending our days. Hosts: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jonathanshanks/https://www.linkedin.com/in/lewismarshall/

In this On Location Brand Story episode, Sean Martin speaks with Hugh Njemanze, Founder and CEO of Anomali, who has been at the center of cybersecurity operations since the early days of SIEM. Known for his prior work at ArcSight and now leading Anomali, Hugh shares what's driving a dramatic shift in how security teams access, analyze, and act on data.Anomali's latest offering—a native cloud-based next-generation SIEM—goes beyond traditional detection. It combines high-performance threat intelligence with agentic AI to deliver answers and take action in ways that legacy platforms simply cannot. Rather than querying data manually or relying on slow pipelines, the system dynamically spins up thousands of cloud resources to answer complex security questions in seconds.Agentic AI Meets Threat IntelligenceHugh walks through how agentic AI, purpose-built for security, breaks new ground. Unlike general-purpose models, Anomali's AI operates within a secure, bounded dataset tailored to the customer's environment. It can ingest a hundred-page threat briefing, extract references to actors and tactics, map those to the MITRE ATT&CK framework, and assess the organization's specific exposure—all in moments. Then it goes a step further: evaluating past events, checking defenses, and recommending mitigations. This isn't just contextual awareness—it's operational intelligence at speed and scale.Making Security More Human-CentricOne clear theme emerges: the democratization of security tools. With Anomali's design, teams no longer need to rely on a few highly trained specialists. Broader teams can engage directly with the platform, reducing burnout and turnover, and increasing organizational resilience. Managers and security leaders now shift focus to prioritization, strategic decision-making, and meaningful business conversations—like aligning defenses to M&A activity or reporting to the board with clarity on risk.Real-World Results and Risk InsightsCustomers are already seeing measurable benefits: an 88% reduction in incidents and an increase in team-wide tool adoption. Anomali's system doesn't just detect—it correlates attack surface data with threat activity to highlight what's both vulnerable and actively targeted. This enables targeted response, cost-effective scaling, and better use of resources.Learn more about Anomali: https://itspm.ag/anomali-bdz393Note: This story contains promotional content. Learn more.Guest: Hugh Njemanze, Founder and President at Anomali | https://www.linkedin.com/in/hugh-njemanze-603721/ResourcesLearn more and catch more stories from Anomali: https://www.itspmagazine.com/directory/anomaliLearn more and catch more stories from RSA Conference 2025 coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/rsac25______________________Keywords:sean martin, hugh njemanze, siem, cybersecurity, ai, threat intelligence, agentic ai, risk management, soc, cloud security, brand story, brand marketing, marketing podcast, brand story podcast______________________Catch all of our event coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/technology-and-cybersecurity-conference-coverageWant to tell your Brand Story Briefing as part of our event coverage? Learn More

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?

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?

Multi-cloud security isn't just a technology challenge—it's an organizational mindset problem. Security teams are juggling AWS, Azure, and GCP, each with different security models, policies, and rules. The result? Silos, misconfigurations, and security gaps big enough to drive an exploit through. In this episode, I sat down with Gal Yosef from AlgoSec to break down: Why multi-cloud security is so complex (and what security teams are getting wrong) How to bridge the gap between network security and cloud security teams How large enterprises manage cloud security policy enforcement across business units The shift from one-size-fits-all security policies to flexible, risk-based guardrails Why automation and visibility are critical for securing multi-cloud environments If you want to secure application connectivity across your hybrid environment, visit algosec.com.

BONUS: AI and Cybersecurity - An Introduction to The Hidden Threats in Our Connected World with Dr. Eric Cole In this BONUS episode, we explore the evolving landscape of cybersecurity in the age of artificial intelligence. Dr. Eric Cole, a renowned cybersecurity expert and author of Cyber Crisis: Protecting Your Business from Real Threats in the Virtual World, shares critical insights about how AI is transforming security strategies. From the privacy concerns of our always-connected devices to practical tips for protecting your business and personal information, this conversation offers essential knowledge for navigating our increasingly digital world. The Double-Edged Sword of AI in Cybersecurity "We are giving away our IP, our data, and our privacy. The data set is what gives value to AI." The rise of artificial intelligence presents both opportunities and serious risks in the cybersecurity landscape. Dr. Cole emphasizes that while many focus solely on AI's benefits, we often overlook the fact that we're surrendering vast amounts of our sensitive information, intellectual property, and private data to AI providers. This data becomes the foundation of AI's value and capabilities, creating a significant privacy concern that many organizations fail to properly address. As we embrace these new technologies, we must carefully consider what information we're willing to share and what safeguards should be in place. Modern Attack Vectors: The Human Element "Attacks today are mostly social engineering. We end up having to retrain people to not trust their email." Today's cybersecurity threats have evolved beyond traditional technical exploits to focus primarily on social engineering—manipulating people into compromising their own security. Dr. Cole explains that modern attackers increasingly target the human element, requiring organizations to fundamentally retrain employees to approach communications with healthy skepticism. Particularly concerning are mobile threats, as our phones constantly record audio and other personal data. Dr. Cole warns that "free" apps often come with a hidden price: your privacy and security. Understanding these attack vectors is essential for developing effective defense strategies in both personal and professional contexts. Cybersecurity as a Business Enabler "Security is not a barrier, not an obstacle. Cybersecurity is a business enabler." Dr. Cole challenges the common perception that security measures primarily restrict functionality and impede business operations. Instead, he reframes cybersecurity as a critical business enabler that should be integrated into strategic decision-making. Organizations need to make deliberate decisions about the tradeoffs between security and functionality, understanding that proper security measures protect business continuity and reputation. Dr. Cole particularly warns about supply chain attacks, which have become increasingly prevalent, and emphasizes that awareness is the foundation of any effective protection strategy. He recommends centralizing data for easier security management and advises that client devices should minimize storing sensitive data. Mobile Phones: The Ultimate Tracking Device "You don't go anywhere without your cell phone. Your cell phone is never more than a foot from you it's with you wherever you go... which means if somebody wants to track and monitor you they can." We often worry about theoretical tracking technologies while overlooking the sophisticated tracking device we voluntarily carry everywhere—our mobile phones. Dr. Cole points out the irony that people who would never accept being "chipped" for tracking purposes willingly keep their phones within arm's reach at all times. These devices record our locations, conversations, messages, and activities, creating a comprehensive digital trail of our lives. With access to someone's phone, anyone can trace their movements for months and access an alarming amount of personal information. This risk is compounded when we back up this data to cloud services, effectively giving third parties access to our most sensitive information. Understanding these vulnerabilities is the first step toward more mindful mobile security practices. Business Opportunities in the Security Space "We have too much information, too much data. How can we use that data effectively?" The cybersecurity landscape presents significant business opportunities, particularly in making sense of the overwhelming amount of security data organizations collect. Dr. Cole identifies data correlation and effective data utilization as key investment areas. Modern security systems generate vast quantities of logs and alerts, but transforming this raw information into actionable intelligence remains a challenge. Companies that can develop solutions to effectively analyze, correlate, and extract meaningful insights from security data will find substantial opportunities in the market, helping organizations strengthen their security posture while managing the complexity of modern threats. Essential Training for Security-Conscious Developers "Go for secure coding courses. This helps us understand how software can be exploited." For software developers looking to build more secure applications, Dr. Cole recommends focusing on penetration testing skills and secure coding practices. Understanding how software can be exploited from an attacker's perspective provides invaluable insights for designing more robust systems. By learning the methodologies and techniques used by malicious actors, developers can anticipate potential vulnerabilities and incorporate appropriate safeguards from the beginning of the development process. This proactive approach to security helps create applications that are inherently more resistant to attacks rather than requiring extensive security patches and updates after deployment. About Dr. Eric Cole Dr. Eric Cole is the author of "Cyber Crisis, Protecting Your Business from Real Threats in the Virtual World." He is a renowned cybersecurity expert with over 20 years of experience helping organizations identify vulnerabilities and build robust defense solutions against advanced threats. He has trained over 65,000 professionals worldwide through his best-selling cybersecurity courses and is dedicated to making cyberspace a safe place for all.

In this episode, we sit with security leader and venture investor Sergej Epp to discuss the Cloud-native Security Landscape. Sergej currently serves as the Global CISO and Executive at Cloud Security leader Sysdig and is a Venture Partner at Picus Capital. We will dive into some insights from Sysdig's recent "2025 Cloud-native Security and Usage Report."Big shout out to our episode sponsor, Yubico!Passwords aren't enough. Cyber threats are evolving, and attackers bypass weak authentication every day. YubiKeys provides phishing-resistant security for individuals and businesses—fast, frictionless, and passwordless.Upgrade your security:https://yubico.comSergj and I dove into a lot of great topics related to Cloud-native Security, including:Some of the key trends in the latest Sysdig 2025 Cloud-native Security Report and trends that have stayed consistent YoY. Sergj points out that while attackers have stayed consistent, organizations have and continue to make improvements to their securitySergj elaborated on his current role as Sysdig's internal CISO and his prior role as a field CISO and the differences between the two roles in terms of how you interact with your organization, customers, and the community.We unpacked the need for automated Incident Response, touching on how modern cloud-native attacks can happen in as little as 10 minutes and how organizations can and do struggle without sufficient visibility and the ability to automate their incident response.The report points out that machine identities, or Non-Human Identities (NHI), are 7.5 times riskier than human identities and that there are 40,000 times more of them to manage. This is a massive problem and gap for the industry, and Sergj and I walked through why this is a challenge and its potential risks.Vulnerability prioritization continues to be crucial, with the latest Sysdig report showing that just 6% of vulnerabilities are “in-use”, or reachable. Still, container bloat has ballooned, quintupling in the last year alone. This presents real problems as organizations continue to expand their attack surface with expanded open-source usage but struggle to determine what vulnerabilities truly present risks and need to be addressed.We covered the challenges with compliance, as organizations wrestle with multiple disparate compliance frameworks, and how compliance can drive better security but also can have inverse impacts when written poorly or not keeping pace with technologies and threats.We rounded out the conversation with discussing AI/ML packages and the fact they have grown by 500% when it comes to usage, but organizations have decreased public exposure of AI/ML workloads by 38% since the year prior, showing some improvements are being made to safeguarding AI workloads from risks as well.

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?  How did you overcome the related challenges?

The intersection of cybersecurity and healthcare is more critical than ever, as technology continues to shape the way patient care is delivered. At HIMSS 2025 in Las Vegas, we sat down with Lee Kim, Senior Principal of Cybersecurity and Privacy at HIMSS, to discuss the pressing security challenges facing healthcare organizations, the role of artificial intelligence, and the balance between innovation and risk.AI in Healthcare: Promise and PerilArtificial intelligence is rapidly being adopted across the healthcare sector, yet many organizations still lack structured governance around its use. Kim highlights the “wild west” nature of AI adoption, where policies are either non-existent or underdeveloped, creating risks related to privacy, data security, and patient outcomes. While AI-powered diagnostic tools, like those used in radiology, have the potential to improve patient care by identifying critical conditions early, blind trust in AI-generated results presents serious risks. Without proper oversight, reliance on AI could lead to incorrect medical decisions, putting patient safety in jeopardy.Cybersecurity Gaps in Healthcare OrganizationsOne of the biggest concerns in healthcare cybersecurity is the over-reliance on security tools without a clear strategy. Many organizations invest in the latest technology but neglect foundational security practices, such as governance, policy development, and staff training. Kim points out that less than half of cybersecurity budgets are allocated to governance, leading to disorganized security programs.Another persistent challenge is the human factor. Social engineering and phishing attacks remain the top attack vectors, exploiting the inherent culture of healthcare professionals who are trained to help and trust others. Organizations must focus on proactive security measures, such as regular training and simulated attacks, to reduce human error and strengthen defenses.The Financial and Operational RealityBudget constraints continue to be a challenge, particularly for smaller hospitals and community healthcare providers. While larger organizations may have more resources, cybersecurity spending often focuses on acquiring new tools rather than optimizing existing defenses. Kim stresses the importance of a balanced approach—investing in both technology and governance to ensure long-term resilience.Another concern is the increasing dependence on third-party services and cloud-based AI tools. If these services become too expensive or go offline, healthcare organizations may face operational disruptions. The lack of contingency planning, such as backup vendors or alternative systems, leaves many institutions vulnerable to supply chain risks.Building a More Resilient Healthcare Security ModelAs technology continues to drive innovation in healthcare, organizations must adopt a proactive cybersecurity stance. Business impact analyses, vendor risk assessments, and tabletop exercises should be standard practice to prepare for disruptions. Kim also raises the idea of cyber mutual aid—a model similar to emergency medical mutual aid, where healthcare organizations collaborate to support each other in times of crisis.HIMSS 2025 provides a forum for these critical conversations, bringing together global healthcare leaders to share insights, challenges, and solutions. For those interested in diving deeper, the HIMSS Cybersecurity Survey is available online, offering a comprehensive look at the current state of healthcare security.To hear the full discussion on these topics and more, listen to the episode featuring Lee Kim, Sean Martin, and Marco Ciappelli from HIMSS 2025 On Location.Guest: Lee Kim, Senior Principal of Cybersecurity and Privacy at HIMSS | On LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/leekim/Hosts:Sean Martin, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine [@ITSPmagazine] and Host of Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast [@RedefiningCyber] | On ITSPmagazine:  https://www.itspmagazine.com/sean-martinMarco Ciappelli, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine [@ITSPmagazine] and Host of Redefining Society Podcast & Audio Signals Podcast | On ITSPmagazine: https://www.itspmagazine.com/itspmagazine-podcast-radio-hosts/marco-ciappelli____________________________This Episode's SponsorsHITRUST: https://itspm.ag/itsphitweb____________________________ResourcesLearn more and catch more stories from HIMSS 2025 coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/himss-2025-health-technology-and-cybersecurity-event-coverage-las-vegasHIMSS 2024 Cybersecurity Report: https://www.himss.org/resources/himss-healthcare-cybersecurity-survey/____________________________Catch all of our event coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/technology-and-cybersecurity-conference-coverageTo see and hear more Redefining CyberSecurity content on ITSPmagazine, visit: https://www.itspmagazine.com/redefining-cybersecurity-podcastTo see and hear more Redefining Society stories on ITSPmagazine, visit:https://www.itspmagazine.com/redefining-society-podcastWant to tell your Brand Story Briefing as part of our event coverage?

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?  Resource: EP157 Decoding CDR & CIRA: What Happens When SecOps Meets Cloud EP194 Deep Dive into ADR - Application Detection and Response EP135 AI and Security: The Good, the Bad, and the Magical Andrej Karpathy series on how LLMs work Sweet Security blog  

The latest episode of the On Location series, recorded at ThreatLocker's Zero Trust World 2025 in Orlando, brings forward a deep and practical conversation about implementing Zero Trust principles in real-world environments. Hosted by Marco Ciappelli and Sean Martin, this episode features Avi Solomon, CIO of a law firm with nearly 30 years in IT and a strong focus on cybersecurity.The Journey to Proactive SecurityAvi Solomon shares his experience transitioning from traditional security models to a proactive, preventive approach with ThreatLocker. With a background in engineering, consulting, and security (CISSP certified), Solomon outlines his initial concerns with reactive endpoint detection and response (EDR) solutions. While EDR tools act as a secondary insurance policy, he emphasizes the need for a preventive layer to block threats before they manifest.Solomon's firm adopted ThreatLocker a year ago, replacing a legacy product to integrate its proactive security measures. He highlights the platform's maturation, including network control, storage control, application whitelisting, and cloud integration. The shift was not only a technological change but also a cultural one, aligning with the broader philosophy of Zero Trust—approaching security with a mindset that nothing within or outside the network should be trusted by default.Implementing Zero Trust with EaseA standout moment in the episode is Solomon's recount of his implementation process. His conservative approach included running ThreatLocker in observation mode for two months before transitioning fully to a secure mode. When the switch was finally flipped, the result was remarkable—zero disruptions, no pushback from users, and a smooth transition to a less risky security posture. Solomon attributes this success to ThreatLocker's intuitive deployment and adaptive learning capabilities, which allowed the system to understand normal processes and minimize false positives.Redefining Zero Trust: “Near Zero Trust”Solomon introduces a pragmatic take on Zero Trust, coining the term “Near Zero Trust” (NZT). While achieving absolute Zero Trust is an ideal, Solomon argues that organizations should strive to get as close as possible by layering strategic solutions. He draws a clever analogy comparing Zero Trust to driving safely before relying on a seatbelt—proactive behavior backed by reactive safeguards.Tune in to the full episode to explore more of Avi Solomon's insights, hear stories from the conference floor, and learn practical approaches to embedding Zero Trust principles in your organization's security strategy.Guest: Avi Solomon, Chief Information Officer at Rumberger | Kirk | On LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/aviesolomon/Hosts:Sean Martin, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine [@ITSPmagazine] and Host of Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast [@RedefiningCyber] | On ITSPmagazine:  https://www.itspmagazine.com/sean-martinMarco Ciappelli, Co-Founder at ITSPmagazine [@ITSPmagazine] and Host of Redefining Society Podcast & Audio Signals Podcast | On ITSPmagazine: https://www.itspmagazine.com/itspmagazine-podcast-radio-hosts/marco-ciappelli____________________________This Episode's SponsorsThreatLocker: https://itspm.ag/threatlocker-r974____________________________ResourcesLearn more and catch more stories from ZTW 2025 coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/zero-trust-world-2025-cybersecurity-and-zero-trust-event-coverage-orlando-floridaRegister for Zero Trust World 2025: https://itspm.ag/threat5mu1____________________________Catch all of our event coverage: https://www.itspmagazine.com/technology-and-cybersecurity-conference-coverageTo see and hear more Redefining CyberSecurity content on ITSPmagazine, visit: https://www.itspmagazine.com/redefining-cybersecurity-podcastTo see and hear more Redefining Society stories on ITSPmagazine, visit:https://www.itspmagazine.com/redefining-society-podcastWant to tell your Brand Story Briefing as part of our event coverage?
