In the rapidly evolving landscape of artificial intelligence and data science, today's episode of the Tech Talks Daily Podcast brings forth a critically important yet often overlooked aspect—securing data through its entire lifecycle. Our esteemed guest is Anand Kashyap, the CEO and Co-founder of Fortanix, a company that has pioneered in the realm of confidential computing. Anand and his team at Fortanix have uniquely positioned themselves in the industry, focusing not just on securing stored or in-transit data, but also data while it's being processed. As AI models increasingly become the linchpins for competitive advantage, it's no longer just about the intricacies of these models but the treasure trove of data that fuels them. Giants like Google and Microsoft, armed with vast amounts of data, seem to have an edge. Yet, this edge brings its own challenges around the ethics, privacy, and compliance of using such data—questions that are resonating loudly, not just in the EU under the shadows of regulations like GDPR, but across the globe, including the US. During our conversation, Anand demystified the concept of confidential computing, a term that is gradually becoming a cornerstone in the discussion around data security. At its core, confidential computing involves leveraging hardware-based trusted execution environments to protect both data and code. One might wonder how this impacts the realm of privacy regulations. Interestingly, confidential computing provides an effective, transparent mechanism to demonstrate compliance without diminishing the operational integrity of AI models. As the conversation unfolded, Anand offered valuable insights, pointing out that while confidential computing does augment runtime security, it is not a silver bullet. The necessity for well-crafted applications and comprehensive security measures remains unabated. He emphasized that this form of computing, though robust in security mechanisms, does not negate the need for diligent application development and maintenance. We also touched upon the far-reaching implications of data privacy laws like GDPR on the global architecture of data solutions. Anand highlighted how such regulations are catalyzing the adoption of confidential computing solutions across different jurisdictions, with an intriguing possibility of creating sovereign cloud zones within public clouds. Ethical considerations in data protection strategies occupied a significant segment of our discussion. With a discerning perspective, Anand shared his thoughts on deploying confidential computing for a myriad of new use cases, from healthcare to financial services. Anand, who continually evolves through self-education, including listening to thought-provoking podcasts, left us with an enriching viewpoint on the challenges and opportunities lying ahead in the data security spectrum. As the spotlight continues to shine on AI and data, understanding how to secure this data effectively is not just an operational need but an ethical imperative. This conversation with Anand Kashyap illuminates that pathway, shedding light on both the potential and the limitations of confidential computing. Whether you are a business leader, a tech enthusiast, or someone deeply involved in data privacy concerns, this episode offers a comprehensive lens through which to view the evolving narrative of data security.

With an unprecedented number of cyber threats out there, protecting data is top of mind for all businesses. Today we are going to be talking about a way to encrypt data at the source, in transit and at rest. We are going to be talking about confidential computing.Hey everybody, this is Chris Brandt, with Sandesh Patel. Welcome to another FUTRtech video podcast.Today we are talking with Fortanix CEO and founder Ambuj Kumar. Fortanix is the industry leader in confidential computing. They decouple data security from infrastructure which allows businesses to centralize control of their secure data across their on-prem, cloud and SaaS platforms. They have raised over $45 Million from prominent investors like Intel and Foundation Capital. Ambuj is going to tell us what confidential computing is, how it works and what it can do for you.Welcome AmbujConfidential Computing in Action: Securing Data and AI Webinar Link:https://resources.fortanix.com/fx-webinar-confidential-computing-in-action-securing-data-and-aiFUTRtech focuses on startups, innovation, culture and the business of emerging tech with weekly video podcasts where Chris Brandt and Sandesh Patel talk with Industry leaders and deep thinkers.Occasionally I share links to products I use, as an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases on Amazon.
Frank Yoo, Director of WW Sales Engineering at Fortanix gives advice to CIOs and why they should look beyond just protecting the perimeter, details on how to automate your security practices as repeatable processes, and why you should have full control of your data.
Brian Vallelunga, CEO and Founder of Doppler discusses the three layers of the Secrets Management industry, how encryption is used as the vehicle to keep your secrets secure, and why not having a secrets manager can bite you later on.
Whether you're one person or a multinational corporation, so much of our personal information exists on the Internet. It has made data security an absolute necessity, and that's unlikely to change in the foreseeable future. Fortunately, there is a data security startup called Fortanix that's thinking outside the box and offering a platform that keeps data protected even when you're on an untrustworthy network. Fortanix CEO and co-founder Ambuj Kumar recently sat down with startup coach Roland Siebelink on the Midstage Startup Momentum Podcast to discuss his data-first, multi-cloud security startup. Naturally, the conversation moved beyond what Fortanix does with Ambuj sharing the most important lessons he's learned as a first-time founder and CEO. The strategy Ambuj used for speaking with potential customers while developing his product. The keys to getting useful feedback from potential customers, even if it's negative feedback. Why Fortanix is striving to sell its product to the top companies in the world. Why it's important for CEOs to handle the first several sales that their startup makes. How it's possible to build a successful company by attracting average talent. Why Ambuj doesn't mind being told that he's wrong about something.
Much of this show has been about using AI in sales in terms of increasing touchpoints, have more calls, and connect with more people on social media. This time, Chad Burmeister shifts the conversation into sales messaging, specifically its security component. Fortanix is one of a number of companies that offer services in this space. The company's founder and CEO, Ambuj Kumar joins in on the conversation to explain what they do on a daily basis. Ambuj talks about the need for encryptions and other steps to protect the privacy and security of business ventures worldwide. He also talks about how Fortanix is uniquely positioned to serve that space. Tune in to learn more.
In this episode, Hall welcomes Ashu Garg, General Partner at Foundation Capital. Headquartered in Palo Alto, California, Foundation Capital was founded in 1995. As an early-stage venture capital firm, they have lived through the emergence of the World Wide Web, the IT war of the 90s, the dot-com bubble, Web 2.0, the mobile revolution, the Great Recession, the rise of Big Data, software’s ascension to the cloud, and the birth of blockchain. The wisdom of those experiences remains with them, transmitted to each successive generation of partners. Foundation Capital is 25 years and nine funds strong, with over $3B in committed capital, 28 IPOs, and 80+ acquisitions to their name. Their fintech, enterprise, and consumer investments have reinvented industries and defined new markets, with companies that include Lending Club, Sunrun, TubeMogul, Chegg, and Netflix. For a quarter of a century—through boom and bust, prosperity or calamity—Foundation Capital has endured, evolved, and thrived. Building companies is in their bones. The Rubik’s Cube has 43 quintillion combinations – but only one solution. At age 11, Ashu found that solution in 25 seconds flat. Although Ashu hasn’t picked up a Rubik’s Cube in quite a while, he still takes great pleasure in solving complex business challenges. To give just one example, in 2010, an early stage Berkeley-based company that specialized in analytics wanted to get into the media-buying platform business. Ashu helped their small team reach the growing number of brands that were migrating their television advertising to the web. That company, TubeMogul, soon became the leading video-advertising platform for brand advertisers, went public in 2014, and was acquired by Adobe in 2016. Ashu serves on the boards of Anvilogic, Arize, Coefficient, Cohesity, Conviva, Eightfold, Fortanix, Layer9, OpsMx, Stacklet, Skyflow, and Turing. In addition, Ashu was responsible for our investments in Aggregate Knowledge (acquired by Neustar), Custora (acquired by Amperity), FreeWheel (acquired by Comcast), TubeMogul (acquired by Adobe), and Tubi.tv (acquired by Fox). He has led seed investments in HipDot, Next Force Technology, Oliv.ai, Radiance Labs, Robin Systems, Testim, and has personally invested in Databricks, Falcon Computing, G2 Esports, and VPS. Ashu is passionate about helping technical founders scale as CEOs. His podcast B2B a CEO has featured Eric Yuan, Jennifer Tejada, Aaron Levie, and Tien Tzuo. Before joining Foundation Capital in 2008, Ashu was the general manager for Microsoft’s online-advertising business and led field marketing for the software businesses. Previously, Ashu worked at McKinsey & Company, helping technology companies scale their go-to-market efforts. Earlier in his career, Ashu founded TringTring.com, one of the first search engines in Asia, set up Unilever’s Nepal operations, and led the marketing and pre-sales teams at Cadence Design Systems. Ashu has a bachelor’s degree from the Indian Institute of Technology (IIT) in New Delhi and an MBA from the Indian Institute of Management at Bangalore, where he received the President’s Gold Medal. Ashu has lived in India, Nigeria and Sudan, and today makes his home in California with his wife, Pooja (an entrepreneur as well), and their two sons. Ashu advises investors and entrepreneurs in the space. He also discusses how he sees the industry evolving and the investment thesis of Foundation Capital.

We've heard a lot about cloud computing, edge computing and various other kinds of computing, but confidential computing is less well known. As an emerging encryption model, it promises to offer greater protection to data as it's being used, supplementing at-rest and in-transit encryption.Protecting against attacks like memory dumps and malicious root user compromise, the development of confidential computing is being spearheaded by the Confidential Computing Consortium, an open-source industry group working to address the problem. In this week's episode, we talk to Dr Richard Searle, senior security architect at Fortanix and general member's representative to the governing board of the consortium, about what the technology aims to do.In this week's news, we discuss Apple's decision to make its own Mac chips and other announcements from its annual WWDC conference, HPE's new software portfolio, and the case of a disgruntled ex-director who deleted all the files in her former employers' Dropbox account.For links to everything we've talked about this week, head to https://bit.tl/ITPP-CCC

We’re joined on this episode of Conversations in the Cloud by Andy Leiserson, Chief Architect at Fortanix. Andy outlines the company’s belief in deterministic security and the need to protect data while it’s in use, in addition to the traditionally protected data at rest and in transit. Fortanix uses Intel® Software Guard Extensions (Intel® SGX) in its Runtime Encryption Platform and Self-Defending Key Management Service. Intel SGX helps create a trusted execution environment where applications bring their own security, allowing those apps to run in a secure enclave. This allows customers utilizing cloud services to maintain the security of their own apps even while running in an untrusted cloud. A prime example is their solution for disrupting the Hardware Security Module (HSM) with a less costly, more manageable, and more scalable cloud-native key management service. Andy sees customers excited about the new data protections Intel SGX offers, particularly at runtime. Learn more at www.fortanix.com or follow https://twitter.com/fortanix.
