Building Trust Through AI and Software Transparency: The Real Value of SBOMs and AISBOMs | An RSAC Conference 2025 Conversation with Helen Oakley and Dmitry Raidman | On Location Coverage with Sean Martin and Marco Ciappelli

Helen Oakley, Senior Director of Product Security at SAP, and Dmitry Raidman, Co-founder and CTO of Cybeats, joined us live at the RSAC Conference to bring clarity to one of the most urgent topics in cybersecurity: transparency in the software and AI supply chain. Their message is direct—organizations not only need to understand what's in their software, they need to understand the origin, integrity, and impact of those components, especially as artificial intelligence becomes more deeply integrated into business operations.SBOMs Are Not Optional AnymoreSoftware Bills of Materials (SBOMs) have long been a recommended best practice, but they're now reaching a point of necessity. As Dmitry noted, organizations are increasingly requiring SBOMs before making purchase decisions—“If you're not going to give me an SBOM, I'm not going to buy your product.” With regulatory pressure mounting through frameworks like the EU Cyber Resilience Act (CRA), the demand for transparency is being driven not just by compliance, but by real operational value. Companies adopting SBOMs are seeing tangible returns—saving hundreds of hours on risk analysis and response, while also improving internal visibility.Bringing AI into the SBOM FoldBut what happens when the software includes AI models, data pipelines, and autonomous agents? Helen and Dmitry are leading a community-driven initiative to create AI-specific SBOMs—referred to as AI SBOMs or AISBOMs—to capture critical metadata beyond just the code. This includes model architectures, training data, energy consumption, and more. These elements are vital for risk management, especially when organizations may be unknowingly deploying models with embedded vulnerabilities or opaque dependencies.A Tool for the Community, Built by the CommunityIn an important milestone for the industry, Helen and Dmitry also introduced the first open source tool capable of generating CycloneDX-formatted AISBOMs for models hosted on Hugging Face. This practical step bridges the gap between standards and implementation—helping organizations move from theoretical compliance to actionable insight. The community's response has been overwhelmingly positive, signaling a clear demand for tools that turn complexity into clarity.Why Security Leaders Should Pay AttentionThe real value of an SBOM—whether for software or AI—is not just external compliance. It's about knowing what you have, recognizing your crown jewels, and understanding where your risks lie. As AI compounds existing vulnerabilities and introduces new ones, starting with transparency is no longer a suggestion—it's a strategic necessity.Want to see how this all fits together?

Hi, Everyone. Carl Gould, here is your #70secondCEO, just over a minute of investment per day for a lifetime of results. There was a study done in 1974 by the Sloan School of Business, and they said, “What drives value in a business? And 95% of what drove value 40 and 50 years ago, was the TANGIBLES of the business, its physical assets. Well, let's fast forward to today. A follow-up on those 10,000 companies and the second part of the study showed that 72% of what drives value in business is its INTANGIBLES. Its intellectual property, it's brand equity, its brand promise. Toms shoes- is it the shoes? Or is it the fact that that company goes out, and for every pair of shoes you buy, they buy a second pair, and give it to an underprivileged child somewhere else in the world? Which one do you think it is? So stop falling in love with your product or service. Yes, you want your product to be impeccable. You want your service delivery to be outstanding. No question about it. Logistically, we want those things to run well. Understand though, people will pay more, they will pay more for the other aspects of working with you.   Like and follow this podcast so you can learn more, my name is Carl Gould and this has been your #70secondCEO.

How in the world is anyone meant to derive the "real" value of a crypto token? Especially in THIS market?? I spoke to Vasily Sumanov, founder of Valueverse and inventor of the Token Value Capture Mechanism Framework to share how he sees it. Valueverse is a utility-centric token tracker that helps you understand the demand-side pressures for token value. Part of the neoliberal ideological turn which has also continued into crypto token releases is an over-focus on supply side economics (problematic).  We discussed token engineering as a discipline in need of an improvement, the most common mistakes people make when designing tokens, and how the VCM framework helps cut through the noise. While I'm no crypto trader and I suspect some may be surprised by an episode like this from me, I do believe that the framework is incredibly useful.I was also very impressed by the page published by Valueverse of BREAD, the post-capitalist token for Breadchain Cooperative which I co-founded.

What's the real value of reliability in your organisation?It's a simple question—but one that's often overlooked before businesses jump into big investments in technology or strategy. And yet, it's the question that sits at the heart of effective asset management.Over the years, working closely with a wide range of organisations, we've seen a common pattern: many skip the most important first step—getting crystal clear on what reliability actually means for their business. Without that alignment, even the best condition monitoring tools or maintenance strategies can miss the mark.In this episode, we talk about how to build a strong business case for reliability—one that really connects with leadership and drives decisions. We also unpack why Overall Equipment Effectiveness (OEE) is such a powerful metric. It gives a full-picture view by balancing availability, performance, and quality—essential ingredients for any reliability programme. Measuring these before you start sets the stage to show true financial impact down the line.Here's a stat worth paying attention to: about 80% of equipment failures are preventable. But prevention doesn't start with gadgets—it starts with understanding. Too often, companies rush into solutions without first figuring out why their assets are failing in the first place. We share a real-life example of a site that almost spent a fortune on sensors that would've only covered 20% of their critical equipment. A solid assessment saved them from a costly misstep.The real game-changer? It's not tech—it's people. Awareness and training spark the kind of cultural shift that keeps reliability efforts alive and thriving. When everyone—from the shop floor to the boardroom—understands their role in keeping things running, that's when real transformation happens.Whether you're just getting started or trying to breathe new life into an existing programme, this episode lays out a roadmap to make reliability a true business driver—not just a technical checkbox.Tune in now and learn how to ignite your organisation's reliability journey.Support the show

In this episode of Recruiting Conversations, I'm breaking down one of the biggest pain points in recruiting: what do you say when a recruit isn't ready to move, and you're stuck between disappearing or sounding like “just checking in”? The answer: show up with value. Here's how to pivot from awkward follow-up calls to intentional touchpoints that build real trust—and how to do it without creating content from scratch. You'll learn how to become “the journalist,” how to lead with curiosity, and how to stand out in a sea of recruiters who are all saying the same thing. Episode Breakdown [00:00] Introduction – The core recruiting challenge: how to follow up without sounding like you're chasing. [01:00] The Mindset Shift – You're not a recruiter. You're a leader, mentor, and value-bringer. [01:30] Be the Journalist, Not the Story – Don't create content. Curate it and deliver it in a way that matters. [02:30] Tactical Delivery – Hooks matter: subject lines like “Today is my last day” grab attention. [03:00] Follow-Up Frequency – Every six months is a great checkpoint if you've made deposits of value. [03:30] Real-Life Example – Using AI and a recruit's actual data to build a 12-month roadmap in 15 minutes. [04:00] Physical Touchpoints – Send books, handwritten notes, and PDFs that matter (ex: One Word by Jon Gordon). [04:30] Passive Pursuit – Keep showing up with value, even when they're not ready. You'll be remembered when they are. [05:00] Final Challenge – Stop “checking in.” Start standing out. Use varied channels and intentional messaging to lead with value. Key Takeaways Be the Journalist – You don't need to create new content. Curate what's already out there and add your unique insight. Lead with a Hook – Use curiosity and tension to cut through the noise. Make them want to engage. Bring Real Value – A personalized roadmap or thoughtful book is more impactful than a generic check-in. Stay Consistent – Use varied channels (email, text, social, mail) and keep making deposits over time. Be Remembered, Not Forgotten – When you follow up the right way, you won't feel like an interruption—you'll feel like the obvious choice. Recruiting isn't about nudging people until they cave. It's about building a follow-up system that brings value, stands out, and creates connection over time. Want to elevate your follow-up strategy?

Good coaching is necessary but insufficient for a world-class fitness business. In this episode of “Run a Profitable Gym,” Chris Cooper breaks down why a gym owner must first focus on building a strong foundation for their business before working to improve their coaching. In the early stages, most gym owners are good coaches but weak entrepreneurs, so they must upgrade their business skills first. Once strong business systems are in place, gym owners can pivot to service delivery as the next big opportunity for growth. Chris shares six key client outcomes that define great coaching and explains why earning more certifications isn't always the best way to achieve these results. He also introduces the “Strength Coach Collective” podcast and free public group, designed to help coaches bridge the gap between advances in training science and real-world application.  Use the links below to check out the “Strength Coach Collective” YouTube channel and join the collective's free group to connect with other coaches, share insights and help your team grow.

Points of Interest0:24 – 0:54 – Show Introduction & Guest Introduction: Marcel introduces Kristen Kelly, highlighting her expertise in operations and agency profitability management.1:01 – 1:45 – The Three-Part Profitability Management System Overview: Kristen recaps the framework discussed in previous episodes: the right data, ensuring financial, delivery, and sales data are clean; the right framework, having clear metrics and understanding relationships; and the right process, implementing structured cadences for decision-making.1:46 – 3:07 – Why Process is Often the Missing Piece in Profitability Management: Marcel explains that many agencies mistakenly view profitability management as an event rather than an ongoing process. He highlights common pitfalls, such as assuming data will always be clean or that a one-time setup will be sufficient.4:59 – 7:46 – Data Hygiene: Managing Messy Data in Agencies: Kristen and Marcel dive into the first major component of process—data hygiene. They discuss common data inconsistencies, such as naming conventions, incorrect project tracking, and human input errors. Marcel emphasizes the importance of an ETL (Extract, Transform, Load) process to clean and normalize data.10:03 – 13:26 – Managing Change in Agency Operations: Kristen and Marcel discuss the second key aspect of process: change management. Changes in sales strategies, CRM systems, or project management tools can disrupt data reporting. A structured process ensures smooth transitions and prevents disruptions in decision-making.17:01 – 20:52 – Cadence: Aligning Stakeholders for Operational Success: Establishing consistent meeting cadences ensures alignment between sales, operations, and finance teams. The right frequency depends on agency size and project nature. Monthly executive meetings should focus on key business objectives and resourcing decisions. Regular check-ins help prevent last-minute hiring crises and pricing inefficiencies.28:51 – 33:07 – How Operators Can Manage Up and Set Expectations: Operators should proactively align reporting with leadership goals. Stakeholder management is crucial—Ops leaders should ensure data supports executive decision-making without overwhelming them with details. Simplification and consistency are key to maintaining executive buy-in.33:08 – 36:56 – Fighting Unnecessary Complexity in Reporting: Marcel shares a common mistake: leaders often want overly detailed reporting, which adds unnecessary complexity and friction. The key is balancing detail with usability to avoid overwhelming decision-makers. Simple, actionable reports are more effective than highly detailed but impractical ones.36:57 – 40:26 – The Real Value of Efficient Reporting: Shorter, More Productive Meetings: The success of a reporting system is measured by how quickly teams can align and take action—not by how long they spend looking at data. The less time spent in meetings discussing reports, the more time can be spent executing on insights.40:27 – 42:40 – Final Takeaways: How to Get Started with Process Implementation: Start by identifying the key business decisions that require data support. Work backward from business objectives to define the right data and process framework. Establish clear cadences and responsibilities for maintaining data hygiene and managing change. Prioritize alignment and simplicity over excessive detail.Show NotesConnect with Kristen via LinkedInFree ToolkitParakeeto Foundations CourseLove the PodcastLeave us a review here.

The circle around that subtle point, in order to realize it, is the spiritual practices such as meditation, repetition of the name of the Lord, talking with good people, directing the mind away from harmful thoughts, and so on. In themselves, these spiritual practices are of no value. The only thing of real value is Love itself."-Satya Sai Baba "The true mystic is not a devotee lost in ecstatic communion with the One, or a reclusive saint who avoids others. The true mystic lives alongside other people- coming and going, eating and sleeping, buying and selling, marrying and chatting-- but not for a moment does he forget God."-Abus Sa'id lbn Abi-l-Khayr "The yogi medicine puts you in a room with Christ. But it can't keep you there. The only thing that can keep you there is love."*-Maharajji"Q: I have been practicing japa and meditation for a long time, but there is not enough progress.Amma: You should also love God. Without love no amount of japa and meditation will bear fruit. When your love for God becomes very strong, all the bad vasanas (mental tendencies) within you will automatically drop away. Rowing a boat against the current is difficult, but if there is a sail it becomes easy. Love for God is like a sail that helps the boat go forward.When two lovers are sitting together, they won't like it when anyone comes near them. A real sadhak has the same attitude. He doesn't like anything that isn't related to God. Living with the thought of God always in his mind, he can't bear any obstacles that come between himself and God. Compared to his love for God, everything else is worthless to him.Son, one should have true lakshya bodha (one-pointed focus on the goal). Only then can one's sadhana (spiritual practices) become deep. When someone sets out with a strong desire to reach a certain place, no obstacle can stop him. If he misses the bus, he will take a taxi. But if he lacks interest, he may decide to go home if he misses the bus, thinking he can try again the next day. Children, without intensity in sadhana it is difficult to reach the goal.Before you sow the seed you have to prepare the land, clearing it of grass and weeds. Otherwise it is difficult for the seeds to sprout. In the same way, we can enjoy the bliss of the Self only if we clear the mind of all external things and direct it to God."-AmmaSupport the show--Our new book, 'Wake Up to Love' is HERE!

Today Laura and Kevin dive into a fascinating discussion on the world of Enterprise Resource Planning (ERP) with Nick Foy, the Founder and CEO of Silverdale Technology who shares his unique perspective on making ERP solutions accessible for businesses of all sizes.First though Laura and Kevin kick things off with a lighthearted chat about Laura's new Walk Car. Then, Nick explains why ERP systems, often overlooked until they're slow or malfunctioning, are critical for businesses. He emphasizes their power in providing quick access to financial and operational insights, enabling better decision-making. For small-to-medium-sized businesses, he advocates for leveraging out-of-the-box ERP solutions and partnering with experienced implementation experts to avoid common pitfalls like over-customization and poor setup. The conversation shifts to leadership, where Nick reflects on how his time at Amazon shaped his philosophy. He shares his approach to creating scalable, tenant-based processes inspired by the tech giant. On a lighter note, Nick, a whisky enthusiast, draws parallels between crafting fine whisky and great ERP solutions, both requiring a long-term vision. He reveals his favorite whisky—Glenmorangie—and touches on his roots in Scotland and journey to the U.S., where he's continued to innovate and inspire in the tech and business space. Give this a listen! You will leave with actionable insights into ERP implementation, process optimization, and leadership, as well as a deeper understanding of Nick's passion for democratizing technology.Nick Foy is the Founder, CEO, and Chief Evangelist of Silverdale Technology, which provides access to world-class processes, systems, and change management methods regardless of their size or budget. Going against the grain of the ERP industry, Nick and his team are 'democratizing ERP' with their unique perspectives, such as their standard business process library, fixed price implementation and money-back guarantees.Nick is well placed to do so, with over 30-years of experience in business and technology consulting and leadership positions, particularly in logistics and supply chain, at Amazon, Capgemini Consulting, ModusLink Corporation, 3663 First for Foodservice, and The Glenmorangie Distillery Company. Born in Scotland and currently living in rural Washington, USA, Nick is a frequent traveler, having made it all around the US, Europe, and Asia for work. Still, he also spares time for his interests, such as being an aspiring guitar player, whisky sampling as a hobby, and being an early adopter and owner of a large tech graveyard of discarded first editions.

On this week's episode of THE FINANCIAL COMMUTE, host Chris Galeski invites Nik Bhatia, professor at USC, author of Layered Money and host of The Bitcoin Layer podcast to discuss Bitcoin's evolution and role in society and finance. Here are some key takeaways from their conversation:Bitcoin was created as a response to the continuous expansion of the credit system and as a new form of decentralized electronic cash.Bitcoin's finite supply (21 million coins) makes it a unique store of value akin to digital gold.Bitcoin operates on a decentralized protocol with cryptographic security, ensuring transparency and removing the need for intermediaries like banks.Bitcoin has gained legitimacy through institutional adoption, ETFs, and regulatory clarity, reducing its risk profile as an asset class.While technological advancements like quantum computing could challenge Bitcoin's security, advancements in quantum encryption are expected to mitigate these risks.Self-custody provides a direct way to interact with Bitcoin's blockchain, but ETFs and other custody solutions offer a more accessible entry point for many investors.Bitcoin is now 16 years old, growing in legitimacy, and increasingly recognized as a new asset class. Curiosity and open-mindedness are essential for understanding its potential role in the future of finance.
