Neste Kubicast, recebemos o Chico (Francisco Rodrigues) e o França, da Qive, para um papo técnico e divertido sobre como instrumentamos uma aplicação legada em PHP com OpenTelemetry e destravamos visibilidade de ponta a ponta. Contamos como foi a descoberta, o desenho da arquitetura e as primeiras vitórias: da auto‑instrumentação às correções cirúrgicas que derrubaram a latência no p95 e eliminaram instabilidades intermitentes.Falamos de decisões práticas: por que escolher OpenTelemetry em um monólito Zend antigo, como alinhar a coleta com o ecossistema Grafana (Tempo, Loki, dashboards, alertas) e qual o impacto real em consumo de CPU/memória versus os ganhos na operação. Também abrimos o jogo sobre trade‑offs de transporte (gRPC/Protobuf), overhead na request e como padronizamos spans para tornar o tracing “quase APM”, mas com stack aberta.De quebra, exploramos experiência do time (SRE e Eng. de Software) para acelerar adoção, self‑service e developer experience. Se você quer entender auto‑instrumentação em PHP, custos/benefícios, stack de observabilidade com Grafana e boas práticas de tracing distribuído, este episódio é para você.Links Importantes: - Marcelo França - https://www.linkedin.com/in/marceloluizfranca - Francisco Rodrigues - https://www.linkedin.com/in/fcoedno - Artigo inspirador - https://medium.com/engenharia-arquivei/instrumente-sua-aplica%C3%A7%C3%A3o-php-com-opentelemetry-cb3460a64d04 - Conheça a Qive - https://qive.com.br/institucional/ - Opentelemetry PHP - https://opentelemetry.io/docs/languages/php/ - João Brito - https://www.linkedin.com/in/juniorjbn/O Kubicast é uma produção da Getup, empresa especialista em Kubernetes e projetos open source para Kubernetes.

Security is no longer optional—it's built into every stage of modern software development. In this episode, we break down the real difference between DevSecOps and Rugged DevOps, two powerful approaches reshaping how organizations defend against evolving cyber threats. From automation and early vulnerability detection to resilience and chaos engineering, learn how each methodology shapes the future of secure software delivery.
TestTalks | Automation Awesomeness | Helping YOU Succeed with Test Automation
AI is accelerating software delivery, but it's also introducing new security risks that most developers and automation engineers never see coming. In this episode, we explore how AI-generated code can embed vulnerabilities by default, how "vibe coding" is reshaping developer workflows, and what teams must do to secure their pipelines before bad code reaches production. You'll learn how to prompt more securely, how guardrails can stop vulnerabilities at generation time, how to prioritize real risks instead of false positives, and how AI can be used to protect your applications just as effectively as attackers use it to exploit them. Whether you're using Cursor, Copilot, Playwright MCP, or any AI tool in your automation workflow, this conversation gives you a clear roadmap for staying ahead of AI-driven vulnerabilities — without slowing down delivery. Featuring Sarit Tager, VP of Product for Application Security at Palo Alto Networks, who reveals real-world insights on securing AI-generated code, understanding modern attack surfaces, and creating a future-proof DevSecOps strategy.
Policy-as-Code is reshaping how modern teams enforce security and compliance. In this episode, we break down how organizations are replacing manual checks with automated, code-driven policies that integrate directly into CI/CD pipelines. If you're working with cloud, DevOps, or DevSecOps, this is a must-listen session to understand how PaC boosts consistency, scalability, and audit readiness.
In 2026, governments across Asia grapple with escalating cybersecurity challenges amid rapid digital transformation and geopolitical tensions. AI-powered threats, including sophisticated phishing and deepfakes, pose significant risks, with IDC forecasting that 76.5% of Asia/Pacific enterprises lack confidence in detecting such attacks. Ransomware continues to evolve, targeting critical infrastructure, while supply chain vulnerabilities expose sensitive data—Gartner predicts 45% of global organisations will face software supply chain attacks by 2025, a trend persisting into 2026. Cloud adoption amplifies hybrid environment breaches, compounded by espionage-driven incursions, as Verizon reports 25% of APAC cyberattacks motivated by spying, with public administration the most targeted sector. Regulatory mandates demand robust compliance, straining resources in an era of legacy systems and talent shortages.In this PodChats for FutureCISO, Aaron Bugal, Field CISO, APJ, Sophos, walks us through some of the coming cybersecurity issues government CISOs as well as those in the private sector, will find important in 2026.1. How can government CISOs effectively measure and improve their cybersecurity resilience, moving beyond compliance-based checklists to ensure the continuous delivery of essential citizen services during an attack?2. What strategies, have proven, most effective for securing legacy systems that remain critical to national operations, given they cannot be immediately replaced?3. With Gartner highlighting that by 2026, 50% of C-level executives will have performance requirements tied to cybersecurity risk, how can government CISOs best align their security metrics with national-level outcomes? 4. How can CISOs proactively defend against state-aligned (sponsored) actors who are increasingly targeting digital public services and critical infrastructure for espionage and disruption?5. Name one CISO strategy for managing third-party and supply chain risk, particularly as organisations, both private and public, rely on an ecosystem of partners to deliver complex, cloud-native government services?6. Given IDC's prediction that by 2026, 70% of organisations will consider environmental sustainability in their cloud purchase decisions, how can CISOs balance security, sovereignty, and sustainability in their technology procurements?7. How are government CISOs addressing the critical cybersecurity skills gap, and what new models for talent acquisition and retention must be developed to compete with the private sector? a. How to avoid burnout?8. To what extent have CISOs integrated security into the entire application lifecycle (DevSecOps) for their national digital identity and other citizen-facing platforms?9. Name a governance and technical framework for the safe and ethical adoption of AI, both to enhance a government's cyber defences and to mitigate its potential malicious use by threat actors?10. How are government CISOs collaborating with regional counterparts and international bodies to share threat intelligence and establish coordinated response protocols for cross-border cyber incidents?11. What is that one final advice for government CISOs as their update their cybersecurity strategies for 2026?

In this episode of De Nederlandse Kubernetes Podcast, we talk with Jim Bugwadia, founder and CEO of Nirmata, and Shuting Zhao, Staff Engineer and one of the maintainers of Kyverno — the CNCF project for Kubernetes policy management.Jim and Shuting share how Kyverno was born from Nirmata's commercial work and has since become one of the most widely adopted open source projects in Kubernetes governance, with over 3.4 billion image pulls.We explore the real question: Why does Kubernetes need policies if it's already declarative? Jim explains how policy as code helps developers, operators, and security teams collaborate on cluster configuration at scale — from pod security to resource quotas, network policies, and automation.Shuting dives deeper into how Kyverno enables granular control, policy exceptions, and flexible enforcement modes — from audit to enforce. They discuss how large organizations use policy automation to improve compliance, security, and even cost efficiency, citing use cases like Adidas saving 50% in dev/test environments using policy-driven resource management.We also touch on:

Aproveitamos a AWS fora do ar e o linkedin cheio de especialistas para falar um pouco sobre DevOps e SRE: o que realmente falhou, como dependências globais amplificam incidentes e por que comunicação e telemetria mudam o jogo quando o provedor está cambaleando. Falamos de estratégias de resiliência multi‑região, desenho de failure domains e decisões pragmáticas de RTO/RPO. Discutimos feature flags para degradar funcionalidades com graça, circuit breakers e backoff nos clientes, priorização de runbooks e exercícios de caos que realmente medem MTTR. Também passamos por impactos colaterais em serviços gerenciados (EKS, IAM, KMS, DynamoDB), observabilidade em modo de guerra e os limites do “gerenciado”.Fechamos com lições acionáveis para times de produto e plataforma: desde budget de disponibilidade e custos até testes de recuperação orientados a cenários. Dois tópicos‑chave que destacamos: resiliência multi‑região na prática e como treinar a organização para incidentes de baixa probabilidade e alto impacto.Por fim, damos um giro de lições aprendidas para equipes de produto e plataforma: feature flags para fallback de integrações, rotas alternativas para planos de controle, circuit breakers em clientes, e playbooks para comunicação com stakeholders. Dois tópicos que merecem atenção especial neste papo: resiliência multi-região na prática e como preparar sua organização para incidentes “quase improváveis”.#Links Importantes:- Lucas Azevedo - https://www.linkedin.com/in/lazevedo-devops/- Comunidade DevOps no Discord - https://discord.com/invite/k6wPagw4tV- João Brito - https://www.linkedin.com/in/juniorjbn/- Assista ao FilmeTEArapia - https://youtu.be/M4QFmW_HZh0?si=HIXBDWZJ8yPbpflM## Hashtags#DevOps #SRE #AWS #Outage #DNS #DynamoDB #AltaDisponibilidade #Resiliencia #Observabilidade #ChaosEngineering #IncidentResponse #Runbooks #FeatureFlags #CircuitBreaker #RTO #RPO #Kubernetes #DevSecOps #Kubicast #Containers #GetupO Kubicast é uma produção da Getup, empresa especialista em Kubernetes e projetos open source para Kubernetes.

Se você acha que segurança em nuvem é só ligar um CSPM e ser feliz, neste episódio a gente mostra que a história é bem mais cabeluda e divertida. Recebemos o Leandro Venâncio para destrinchar desde responsabilidade compartilhada e Zero Trust até o que realmente funciona no dia a dia de clusters Kubernetes sob fogo cruzado. Falamos de cultura, automação e das ciladas que a gente só aprende depois de tomar uns tombos.Partimos do básico bem-feito (identidade, redes e criptografia) e avançamos para governança com políticas (Kyverno/Gatekeeper), esteira com SAST/DAST/SCA, SBOM decente e segredos administrados em KMS/External Secrets. Amarramos com observabilidade, resposta a incidentes e como priorizar risco sem virar refém de dashboards. Spoiler: custo, compliance e performance entram no mesmo bolo e não dá pra fingir que não existem.Entre as pautas, destacamos: como aplicar Zero Trust em workloads efêmeros; por que "shift left" sem operações maduras mais atrapalha que ajuda; e onde CNAPP, CSPM e admission controllers se encontram. E claro, casos reais — porque a teoria é linda, mas a produção é quem manda.#Links Importantes:- Leandro Venâncio - https://www.linkedin.com/in/leandro-venancio/- LowOps cast com Rafael Ferreira - https://www.youtube.com/live/SC6a11HClX4- João Brito - https://www.linkedin.com/in/juniorjbn/- Assista ao FilmeTEArapia - https://youtu.be/M4QFmW_HZh0?si=HIXBDWZJ8yPbpflMO Kubicast é uma produção da Getup, empresa especialista em Kubernetes e projetos open source para Kubernetes.

Federal Tech Podcast: Listen and learn how successful companies get federal contracts
Connect to John Gilroy on LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/john-gilroy/ Want to listen to other episodes? www.Federaltechpodcast.com The impact of AI in software development in the federal government is so pervasive that, in July of 2025, the President of the United States released a White House AI Action Plan. Today, we sat down with Bob Stevens from GitLab to put this development into perspective, examine some use cases, and suggest methods that federal agencies can use to prepare for this technological shift. What precipitated the initiative is the recognition that change is occurring so rapidly in the world of software development that the federal government must adapt more quickly than in the past, or it will be vulnerable to cyberattacks. Stevens notes that the federal government has been targeting modernization, producing software faster, and being more efficient, for a decade. AI will help them get there, with some possible cost reduction. For example, in the past, a vulnerability may have taken weeks to discover. Utilizing AI allows federal software developers to reduce that discovery to minutes. That ties in with one essential element in the White House initiative: security. In fact, one of the pillars of the Action Plan is titled “Promoting Secure-by-Design AI Technologies and Applications.” Stevens has been involved in federal software development for decades and thinks that a platform approach best serves the essential objectives of this Action Plan. The conversation concludes with the potential for AI to streamline government processes and improve operational efficiency.

How do you perform incident response on a Kubernetes cluster when you're not even on the same network? In this episode, Damien Burks, Senior Security engineer breaks down the immense challenges of container security and why most commercial tools are failing at automated response.While many CNAPPs provide runtime detection, they lack a "sophisticated approach to automating incident response or containment" in complex environments like private EKS . He shares his hands-on experience building a platform that uses a dynamically deployed Lambda function to achieve containment of a compromised EKS node in just 10 minutes, a process that would otherwise take hours of manual work and approvals .This is a guide for any DevSecOps or cloud security professional tasked with securing containerized workloads. The conversation also covers a layered prevention strategy, the evolving role of the cloud security engineer, and career advice for those looking to enter the field.Guest Socials - Damien'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 Security PodcastQuestions asked:(00:00) Introduction(02:15) Who is Damien Burks?(03:20) The State of Cloud Incident Response in 2025(05:15) Why There is No Sophisticated, Automated IR for Kubernetes(06:20) A Deep Dive into Kubernetes Incident Response(07:30) The Unique Challenge of a Private EKS Cluster(12:15) A Layered Approach to Prevention in a DevSecOps Culture(17:00) How to Automate Containment in a Private EKS Cluster(17:40) From Hours to 10 Minutes: The Impact of Automation(22:00) The Evolving & Complex Role of the Cloud Security Engineer(25:40) Do We Have Too Much Visibility or Not Enough?(29:00) Career Path: The Value of Learning to Code for DevSecOps(35:00) Damien's Hot Take: "Multi-Cloud Just Means Chaos"(44:20) Career Advice for Traditional IR Professionals Moving to Cloud(47:50) Final Questions: Video Games, Life's Journey, and GumboResources spoke about during the interviewDamien's Website

In this issue of the Future of Cyber newsletter, Sean Martin digs into a topic that's quietly reshaping how software gets built—and how it breaks: the rise of AI-powered coding tools like ChatGPT, Claude, and GitHub Copilot.These tools promise speed, efficiency, and reduced boilerplate—but what are the hidden trade-offs? What happens when the tools go offline, or when the systems built through them are so abstracted that even the engineers maintaining them don't fully understand what they're working with?Drawing from conversations across the cybersecurity, legal, and developer communities—including a recent legal tech conference where law firms are empowering attorneys to “vibe code” internal tools—this article doesn't take a hard stance. Instead, it raises urgent questions:Are we creating shadow logic no one can trace?Do developers still understand the systems they're shipping?What happens when incident response teams face AI-generated code with no documentation?Are AI-generated systems introducing silent fragility into critical infrastructure?The piece also highlights insights from a recent podcast conversation with security architect Izar Tarandach, who compares AI coding to junior development: fast and functional, but in need of serious oversight. He warns that organizations rushing to automate development may be building brittle systems on shaky foundations, especially when security practices are assumed rather than applied.This is not a fear-driven screed or a rejection of AI. Rather, it's a call to assess new dependencies, rethink development accountability, and start building contingency plans before outages, hallucinations, or misconfigurations force the issue.If you're a CISO, developer, architect, risk manager—or anyone involved in software delivery or security—this article is designed to make you pause, think, and ideally, respond.

SBOMs were supposed to be the ingredient label for software—bringing transparency, faster response, and stronger trust. But reality shows otherwise. Fewer than 1% of GitHub projects have policy-driven SBOMs. Only 15% of developer SBOM questions get answered. And while 86% of EU firms claim supply chain policies, just 47% actually fund them.So why do SBOMs stall as compliance artifacts instead of risk-reduction tools? And what happens when they do work?In this episode of AppSec Contradictions, Sean Martin examines:Why SBOM adoption is laggingThe cost of static SBOMs for developers, AppSec teams, and business leadersReal-world examples where SBOMs deliver measurable valueHow AISBOMs are extending transparency into AI models and dataCatch the full companion article in the Future of Cybersecurity newsletter for deeper analysis and more research.
AI is enabling developers and non-developers (product managers, solutions engineers) to write more lines of code than even before. Businesses are under pressure to ship these AI built products to stay competitive while still meeting regulatory requirements. Can AI solve this problem?

Software developers combine Artificial Intelligence with IT Operations and have produced a new acronym called AIOps. Today, we explored some of the best practices for making software development more productive with AIOps. Legacy systems are an excellent application for AIOps, but Kevin Walsh from the GAO notes that it may be more economical to maintain legacy systems in place. Christopher Clark from the U.S. Marine Corps suggests listening to users through starting AI Task Forces. They can help identify the use cases that would validate the expense of moving to AIOps. One obvious win might be minimal risk, high-impact activities. Clark mentions preventative maintenance as a potential target. ROI from reducing costs can be apparent. Furthermore, a help desk can pose a negligible risk and have a relatively high impact on servicing needs of Marines. One likely candidate for applied AIOps is managing the changes in a code set that takes place. BMC's Katie Tierney states that in a typical DevSecOps environment, there could be thousands of changes a day, which exceeds human capability. The overview is apparent: ensure appropriate oversight, governance, and transparency measures are in place when deploying agentic AI systems.

From AI disruption to digital sovereignty, from leadership to culture—this season's guests are ready to shake things up.Our first full episode drops on September 25, but before we hit 88 miles per hour, here's a quick trailer to set the timeline straight, or at least bend it a little.HostsDave Chapman: https://www.linkedin.com/in/chapmandr/Rob Kernahan: https://www.linkedin.com/in/rob-kernahan/Esmee van de Giessen: https://www.linkedin.com/in/esmeevandegiessen/ProductionMarcel van der Burg: https://www.linkedin.com/in/marcel-vd-burg/Dave Chapman: https://www.linkedin.com/in/chapmandr/SoundBen Corbett: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ben-corbett-3b6a11135/Louis Corbett: https://www.linkedin.com/in/louis-corbett-087250264/'Cloud Realities' is an original podcast from Capgemini
Threat modeling is often called the foundation of secure software design—anticipating attackers, uncovering flaws, and embedding resilience before a single line of code is written. But does it really work in practice?In this episode of AppSec Contradictions, Sean Martin explores why threat modeling so often fails to deliver:It's treated as a one-time exercise, not a continuous processResearch shows teams who put risk first discover 2x more high-priority threatsYet fewer than 4 in 10 organizations use systematic threat modeling at scaleDrawing on insights from SANS, Forrester, and Gartner, Sean breaks down the gap between theory and reality—and why evolving our processes, not just our models, is the only path forward.
AI is everywhere in application security today — but instead of fixing the problem of false positives, it often makes the noise worse. In this first episode of AppSec Contradictions, Sean Martin explores why AI in application security is failing to deliver on its promises.False positives dominate AppSec programs, with analysts wasting time on irrelevant alerts, developers struggling with insecure AI-written code, and business leaders watching ROI erode. Industry experts like Forrester and Gartner warn that without strong governance, AI risks amplifying chaos instead of clarifying risk.This episode breaks down:• Why 70% of analyst time is wasted on false positives• How AI-generated code introduces new security risks• What “alert fatigue” means for developers, security teams, and business leaders• Why automating bad processes creates more noise, not less
Our guest today is Akansha Shukla, an information security professional with over 10 years of experience in application security, DevSecOps, and API security. We're discussing why API security remains one of the least mature areas of AppSec today and exploring the challenges developers face when securing APIs. Akansha shares her insights on incorporating APIs into threat modeling exercises, the ongoing struggles with API discovery and inventory management, and the authorization challenges highlighted in the OWASP API Security Top 10. The conversation also touches on whether "shift left" is truly dead and why we still haven't solved basic security problems like input validation despite having the frameworks to address them.FOLLOW OUR SOCIAL MEDIA: ➜Twitter: @AppSecPodcast➜LinkedIn: The Application Security Podcast➜YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/@ApplicationSecurityPodcast Thanks for Listening! ~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
