In today’s chat, Marco Ciappelli and Sean Martin speak with John Chambers, Founder and Chief Executive Officer at JC2 Ventures, and Former Chairman and Chief Executive Officer at Cisco, and two of his guests: Mike Fong, Founder and CEO at Privoro, and Vijay Balasubramaniyan, CEO at Pindrop. Together, the group discusses their role during RSA Conference, how corporations can balance security innovation with security operations, and the opportunity and impact that new ventures can have on society. “I’ve seen every movie there is to see; every mistake there is to make." ~John Chambers We all agreed that there’s way too much stuff for corporations to look at when it comes to options for solving their cybersecurity challenges; there are too many choices to select from. To this end, we discuss how the market and corporations can balance security innovation with security operation. The group also looks at how they see innovation playing a role in addressing the challenges we face in society. Are we adequately using technology to resolve the problems for the user? Are we doing it in a way that also educates and empowers the user? John also broadens this point by discussing the challenges we face with reaching the whole of society when the bulk of the innovations tend to take place on the West and East coasts of the United States. And, of course, John shares with us what he plans to discuss with Diane Brady during their RSA Conference Keynote — Connecting the Dots for the Future — on Thursday, March 7th from 4:45 PM to 5:30 PM in Moscone West. All our RSA Conference coverage, including these chats on the road, is made possible by the generosity of our sponsors.

This week we are paying a visit to the Dreamforce IoT Zone. We’ll hear from Doug Merrett and his robot Sparky. Doug is a Principal Enterprise Architect at Salesforce. Even though it is 2015 and these techniques have been used for decades to build cars and sort parcels for delivery, not everyone makes the connection that the software which they use on their phone or web browser can affect and interact with the physical world, and for me this is really what the IoT Zone at Dreamforce is all about, helping people imagine what is possible and apply what they have learned to their own situation. The technology of IoT has progressed rapidly and has made its way into many products we come into contact with every day. Before we get to Doug and Sparky, we have a tour of the IoT Zone from Pat Patterson. Pat is Developer Evangelist Architect at Salesforce https://www.linkedin.com/in/metadaddy and he walked and talked me around some of the major products on show which are connected through the new Salesforce IoT cloud. You can tweet Pat @metadaddy All the technology related zones at Dreamforce on the second floor of the Moscone West building were buzzing and they clearly made an impact on Salesforce CEO Marc Benioff as he gave mention in his Q&A session to both Adam Seligman, Senior VP Developer Relations and to Pat. I really hope that you enjoy this weeks show.
