Podcast, Deny Caballero sits down with Byron Beplay to talk about military service, skydiving, veteran community, philanthropy, entrepreneurship, and learning to bet on yourself when life forces you to pivot.Byron shares stories and lessons from the skydiving community, including why jumping out of airplanes became about far more than chasing an adrenaline rush. For him, it's about camaraderie, challenge, accountability, and being surrounded by people who continue pushing themselves.The conversation also explores supporting veterans and first responders, Byron's philanthropic work, the Outer Heaven Foundation, and why taking imperfect action can be more valuable than waiting for the perfect opportunity. Listen now.

The oil and gas industry is welcoming the first loans from the Government's $200 million Gas Security Fund. It's investing $23.5 million into two projects, including drilling a new well and accessing deeper gas at existing fields. Both with be run by Todd Energy, while there are 17 other proposals sitting on the Government's desk. Energy Resources Aotearoa CEO John Carnegie told Ryan Bridge the loans are being used for existing field and infrastructure, so they offer one of the quickest opportunities to get more domestic gas into the market sooner. He says if they're successful, both projects expect to have gas flowing by the end of 2027. Carnegie says this is a public-private partnership at its best.

A structural shift in regulatory accountability now places incident notification and liability directly on the operators or deployers of AI-powered and software tools, rather than on technology vendors or model developers. This mechanism is made explicit by the requirements of the EU's Cyber Resilience Act (CRA), Digital Services Act (DSA), and the upcoming Machinery Regulation. Incidents such as the Cursor AI coding agent breach at a Belgian chemical company underline that compliance timelines and regulatory scrutiny target the entity deploying the technology.CrowdStrike and Okta both reported that increased enterprise security spending is being driven by heightened AI-generated attacks, according to their quarterly results. Gartner forecasts AI security spending will reach $4.8 billion by 2027, up 68.7% from this year, with usage control as the most dynamic segment. A public letter signed by over 100 vendors—including OpenAI, Anthropic, AWS, and Microsoft—warns of urgent defensive needs but does not shift responsibility to software suppliers.Recent breaches and vulnerabilities illustrate how accountability remains with the service provider or end-user implementer. The Cursor breach assigned notification duties to AnySphere (the product vendor) and the breached organization, not to upstream model providers. Likewise, after N-able's Passportal bug, MSPs were accountable for client-facing remediation. In each case, the “accountability line” lands on the party deploying the tool.For MSPs and IT service providers, these trends require updating agreements, operations, and client communications. Service structures must prioritize regulatory response timelines, documentation, and clear reporting obligations. Providers serving EU clients, or those linked to global supply chains, will encounter business risk if they do not proactively address these regulatory demands before mandated deadlines.00:00 Prevention Got A New Price 03:25 The Half That Doesn't Move05:50 Where The Call Lands09:27 Why Do We Care?

Security policy has traditionally been built around the state: its borders, its military capability, its ability to deter external threats. Gender-based violence rarely features, despite being one of the most persistent and predictable forms of harm in the world, in peacetime and exacerbated during conflict. Treating gender-based violence solely as a private, social, health or humanitarian issue without recognition of it as a security one has consequences: it shapes what gets funded, what gets measured, and whose safety counts as a matter of state responsibility. When it comes to policy, prevention and intervention, the gap between that recognition and practice remains stark, and the impact through violence, displacement and death, notably femicide, continues to rise alongside global military spending. By comparison, funding to address gender-based violence remains miniscule. This event asks what it would mean to take that gap seriously: why gender-based violence functions as both a cause and a consequence of insecurity, and what a security framework would look like if it were built around who is actually being harmed. This event is a collaboration between La Trobe Centre for Global Security and Reducing Gender Based Violence Network (ReGEN). Speakers: Professor Elizabeth Miller (Deputy Director (Strategic Planning and Coordination), Integrated Center for Women's Health) Desireé LaGrappe (Lecturer, School of Nursing and Midwifery, La Trobe University and Chair, ReGEN) Dr Jessica Ison (Deputy Director, Reducing Gender-Based Violence Research Group (ReGEN), La Trobe Rural Health School) Dr Natasha Singh Raghuvanshi (Politics and International Relations, La Trobe University) Professor Bec Strating (Director, La Trobe Centre for Global Security) Emeritus Professor Dennis Altman (Vice-Chancellor's Fellow, La Trobe University) Recorded on 1st September, 2026.

A federal judge tells the Pentagon its Anthropic ban was “illegal and baseless” after Anthropic refused to remove safeguards that would allow Claude to be used for mass surveillance and autonomous weapons. Meanwhile, Sony and Warner are suing Anthropic over allegedly scraping and torrenting copyrighted music to train Claude, while a separate lawsuit accuses xAI of using child sexual abuse material in Grok training. Because nothing says “revolutionary technology” quite like a growing stack of lawsuits and federal judges.Elsewhere in the dystopian workplace, employees are increasingly fed up with AI, communities are pushing back against data centers, and one AI startup is fleeing that backlash for Saudi Arabia. Google's AI shopping mode is also accused of recommending products that cost significantly more than traditional search results, while Waymo and Zoox rack up injuries among test drivers. Tesla's Autopilot is implicated in another fatal crash, and FSD apparently still has a complicated relationship with freight trains. In the prediction-market casino, a federal appeals court sides with Nevada against Kalshi, while George Santos earns the platform's first lifetime ban for allegedly manipulating a market. And Meta's AI glasses are facing another privacy lawsuit, this time from the people who never bought the glasses but may have been recorded by them anyway.Plus, the new Twitter is back from the dead, complete with a $20 admission fee and an AI fact-checker named Vera; Sony would like you to understand that buying a digital game means you don't actually own the damn thing; Siri on the Apple Watch moves at approximately the speed of continental drift; JBL makes Wi-Fi speakers and we have Star Trek, Ted Lasso, Silo, Spaceballs, Wicked, The Traitors, The Gentlemen, and more.

**The California Nightmare Continues**California's taxpayers are footing the bill for the personal security of former Governor Gavin Newsom and Senator Kamala Harris, with a whopping $20 million allocated from the DMV fees. But is this really necessary? The speaker questions whether these politicians can afford their own security, considering their wealth and influence. Meanwhile, a serial burglar in San Jose has been arrested multiple times for dozens of burglaries, raising questions about the effectiveness of California's criminal justice system.The episode delves into the controversy surrounding the allocation of funds for personal security, with the speaker pointing out that this money could be better spent on other pressing issues, such as fixing the roads. The conversation also touches on the case of Eric Swalwell, a former congressman who was recently searched by the FBI at the airport, and the Tijuana River sewage crisis in San Diego County.The speaker is critical of the lack of accountability in California's justice system, highlighting the case of a serial burglar who has been arrested multiple times without facing any real consequences. They also discuss the county's plan to build a sewage treatment facility to address the Tijuana River crisis.Tune in to this episode to hear the speaker's take on these issues and more.

Meanwhile, a serial burglar in San Jose has been arrested multiple times for dozens of burglaries, raising questions about the effectiveness of California's criminal justice system.The episode delves into the controversy surrounding the allocation of funds for personal security, with the speaker pointing out that this money could be better spent on other pressing issues, such as fixing the roads. The conversation also touches on the case of Eric Swalwell, a former congressman who was recently searched by the FBI at the airport, and the Tijuana River sewage crisis in San Diego County.The speaker is critical of the lack of accountability in California's justice system, highlighting the case of a serial burglar who has been arrested multiple times without facing any real consequences. They also discuss the county's plan to build a sewage treatment facility to address the Tijuana River crisis.Tune in to this episode to hear the speaker's take on these issues and more. Join the conversation and let us know what you think about the allocation of funds for personal security and the state of California's justice system.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

What if your website already supports post-quantum cryptography, but nobody inside your organization knows how, why, or which provider controls it? I speak with David Warburton, Director of F5 Labs Threat Research, about new F5 research examining post-quantum cryptography across the world's top one million websites. According to the research discussed in our conversation, 54% now support PQC. It is an encouraging sign that preparations for future quantum threats are entering mainstream infrastructure. That figure is also easy to misread. David explains that much of the adoption comes from cloud and CDN providers enabling hybrid post-quantum protection for their customers. A smaller business could therefore appear better prepared than a large enterprise simply because its provider activated the technology automatically. However, that customer may have little understanding of the chosen cipher, the protection applied elsewhere, or the dependencies created around a small number of technology companies. David says the adoption rate looks very different when major CDN providers are removed from the data. This raises an important question about whether businesses are developing their own post-quantum security capabilities or temporarily benefiting from decisions made on their behalf. We discuss why current deployments combine established cryptography with newer post-quantum algorithms. This hybrid approach protects compatibility while browsers, APIs, operational technology, IoT devices, and older enterprise systems catch up. It also carries performance costs through larger cryptographic material and increased network traffic. David argues that crypto agility matters because organizations need the ability to change algorithms, certificates, and encryption methods as threats develop. The conversation also moves beyond encrypted traffic. Harvest now, decrypt later attacks involve collecting sensitive information today so it can potentially be decrypted when capable quantum computers arrive. David believes authentication and digital identity could create an even greater concern. A quantum computer able to produce valid certificates could potentially impersonate trusted websites, signed software, devices, or firmware. Legacy infrastructure remains one of the largest barriers. F5 Labs found that roughly one in ten leading websites lacked TLS 1.3 support, preventing them from supporting current hybrid PQC connections. David also explains why Germany and France may trail countries including the US, UK, Australia, Ukraine, and Singapore, despite strong national policies. Factors include digital sovereignty concerns and the concentration of older manufacturing and operational systems. For leaders beginning this work, David recommends speaking with suppliers, establishing internal ownership, reviewing business continuity plans, and creating a cryptographic bill of materials covering certificates, algorithms, libraries, applications, and devices. I'd love to hear your thoughts, so does your organization know where its cryptography lives and who controls its post-quantum readiness?

Healthcare marketing has had a caregiver persona for fifteen years. She was worried, researching options, wanting a second opinion. That was a fair description of the job in 2010. Today most family caregivers help with bathing, dressing and mobility, and many now handle injections, wound care, catheters and oxygen equipment at home. Eleven percent were trained for any of it. Chris Boyer and Reed Smith open on new research projecting how much bigger this population gets by 2040, and on why the explanation everyone reaches for turns out to be wrong. The rest of the first half is about why none of this reaches anyone's numbers. One caregiver arrives in a health system as three unlinked records. The one tool built to let her in goes unmarketed and almost unused, and the workaround hospital staff recommend instead would get a marketer fired. Then Chris turns to why every fix built for her quietly stops working around week three. Jessica Hulter and Lamarque Polvado of CareStarter built software that asked a clinic checkout desk for sixty seconds. Staff used it for two weeks, then stopped, and nobody could make them start again. What they did in response put the human somewhere other than where healthcare usually puts her, and Jessica is that human.

Jim McDonald hosts this Sponsor Spotlight episode of Identity at the Center, made possible with support from Twine Security. Jim is joined by Benny Porat, co-founder and CEO of Twine Security and previously co-founder and CTO of Claroty. Benny shares how his cybersecurity background led him into identity and explains the concept of the "execution gap," the space where identity teams are accountable for outcomes but lack the full business context to act on their own. The conversation explores Twine Security's AI digital employee, Alex, and how it differs from traditional automation and RPA, where AI-driven execution fits best within identity operations today, and the balance between the parts of a task AI can handle easily versus the harder remaining work. Benny and Jim also dig into governance and trust, including why least privilege matters even more for AI agents and non-human identities, how organizations typically start with read-only access before expanding permissions, and how access reviews and recertification could evolve as AI takes on more of the process. They close with reflections on measuring success, how the identity practitioner's role changes as more execution shifts to AI, and a lighter round on what a personal AI digital employee might look like.Connect with Benny: https://www.linkedin.com/in/bennyporat/Learn more about Twine Security: https://www.twinesecurity.com/Connect with us on LinkedIn:Jim McDonald: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jimmcdonaldpmp/Jeff Steadman: https://www.linkedin.com/in/jeffsteadman/Visit the show on the web at idacpodcast.com00:00 - Introduction and welcoming Benny Porat, co-founder and CEO of Twine Security00:52 - How Benny found his way into identity and access management02:21 - The origin of the name Twine03:28 - Defining the IAM execution gap05:53 - AI digital employees versus RPA and automation08:07 - Where AI digital employees are best suited today09:45 - Why AI is strong at eighty percent and what makes the rest difficult14:45 - Where a digital employee like Alex fits within identity operations18:43 - Trust, governance, and giving AI agents the right permissions21:42 - Applying least privilege to AI agents and non-human identities25:19 - How organizations start using Alex, from read-only to full execution30:27 - Rethinking the role of access reviews with AI involved33:14 - Measuring efficiency gains and revocation rate improvements36:00 - Addressing concerns about AI replacing IAM practitioners39:12 - How customers define and measure success44:15 - How the practitioner's day-to-day role changes with AI agents47:12 - Closing thoughts and where to learn more47:37 - Lighter note: imagining a personal AI digital employeeKeywords: IDAC, Identity at the Center, Jeff Steadman, Jim McDonald, Benny Porat, Twine Security, Sponsor Spotlight, AI digital employee, Alex, identity and access management, IAM, execution gap, least privilege, access reviews, recertification, agentic AI, non-human identity, NHI, Claroty, IGA, PAM, governance, human in the loop

How does AI change the intranet? Richard chats with Susan Hanley about her work helping organizations build great intranets and how tools like M365 Copilot are changing the intranet. Susan talks about the new reality of an intranet, where some users no longer go to the intranet directly but use an agent to retrieve the information they need. This impacts search statistics, but also means it's important to write pages that an agent can easily understand. The conversation also dives into the bane of all intranets - archiving data. LLMs can help with organizing data, but getting stale data out of view is essential. There are also retention policies and governance, and there's a role for these tools there too - the intranet is evolving! Links SharePoint Skills Recorded Aug 17, 2026

  From Phantom Pain to Freedom Walking Paris Streets     What happens when the prosthetic leg you depend on suddenly will not charge-thousands of miles from home? In this episode of the BAWarrior Podcast, I'm sharing the honest story of my first international trip as an amputee. Returning to Paris carried special meaning for me because my previous trip there in 2018 ultimately led to my decision to have an above-knee amputation. This time, I returned stronger, healthier, and determined to experience international travel with my prosthetic leg, but the journey still tested me in ways I never expected. Security line in Charles De Gaulle airport   Waiting at gate to board plane home   Ugh! Got thru gate only to be held back for 15/20 minutes in a long line to board plane. We got further back in line due to my son being chosen, at random, for a full bag check AT the gate!   Before leaving, I prepared for the long flights, airport security, possible swelling, phantom sensations, and everything I would need to care for my skin-fit socket. I packed my medical supplies, prosthetic charger, tools, cleaning products, electrical converters, and surge protector. What I could not anticipate was that plugging my charger into the hotel's electrical system would blow the power-not once, but twice. Although my prosthetic leg was not connected when the electricity failed, my surge protector was burned and blackened. Suddenly, I had no way of knowing whether my charger still worked. After going more than a day without charging my prosthetic knee, I found myself lying awake wondering how I would make it through ten days in France if my leg stopped functioning.   Our updated rig and the first time, in 4 days, that I was finally able to charge my leg!   In that moment, I had never felt more disabled. With help from my prosthetist, my Össur representative, the hotel staff, and an electronics store in Paris, we found a safe European power strip and adapter. After three days without charging, I finally watched the green light come on. The next morning, my prosthetic was at 100 percent—and I felt an overwhelming sense of relief and gratitude.   One time we had some rain, but some of the uneven brick roads we walked on all week long.   Huge day, seeing The Cure at Pagaille Festival in Bordeaux. A TRUE test of my ability to stand, in thick crowds for hours!!!   The trip also taught me important lessons about accessibility outside the United States. ADA standards do not follow us into other countries. I encountered cobblestone streets, restaurant bathrooms located in basements, showers without grab bars, large steps, slippery floors, and roadside toilets without seats. I had to use my balance, towels, creativity, and willingness to adapt. Despite blisters and days ranging from 12,000 to 20,000 steps, I experienced Paris, Disneyland, Bordeaux, and everything this incredible journey offered. International travel as an amputee takes preparation, but it is possible.     Seeing the Mona Lisa (above), but when an attendant saw me she flagged me over and brought us in front of EVERYONE to get up close! A great perk of being an amputee (below)!         If you are an amputee planning an international or domestic trip, reach out and share your questions with me. I would love to help you prepare, avoid the mistakes I made, and travel with greater confidence. You can do this, you simply need to prepare well and be ready to pivot. Have a beautifully blessed day, And as always, Be Healthy, Be Happy, Be YOU!!!   Much love,

License plate reader cameras have become one of the most talked-about tools in towing and parking enforcement, and not always for the right reasons. Today we sit down with Marcus Oliver, VP of Security at Parkva, to unpack what mobile LPR technology actually does, how it changes nightly patrol work, and where operators can get burned if privacy and policy are treated like an afterthought.We dig into the difference between static LPR deployments and vehicle-mounted mobile systems, why “bad actors” created serious public backlash, and what real guardrails look like when you're handling sensitive plate data. Marcus explains Parkva's approach to retention limits (a maximum of 30 days), how disputes can still be supported with normal enforcement documentation, and why accountability and checks and balances matter as this tech spreads. We also talk accuracy, including how their system reaches about 98% across millions of reads and why extreme angles, lighting, and weather conditions are part of the test.Then we get practical for tow operators and private property enforcement teams: scanning a plate a second, auditing huge lots like stadiums and campuses, onboarding drivers quickly, and using software to simplify multi-property work. Marcus also shares where AI is headed next, including predictive enforcement ideas and route optimization that focuses time on the highest-impact areas. If you're looking for a clearer way to think about LPR cameras, parking enforcement software, and property intelligence without hype, this one is for you.Subscribe for weekly towing industry insights, share this with a teammate, and leave a review so more operators can find the show.

Steven Walchek is originally from the Bay Area in California, but lives in Denver now. He's been there for 8 years with his family. He comes from a family of risk takers and entrepreneurs - for example, his Dad was a tech guy who did his thing and had success in Silicon Valley. Outside of tech he is a family man, married with kids. He enjoys doing anything he can with them, as they are his "why". He plays hockey, coaches hockey, and rides dirt bikes and mountain bikes. Steven and his team built an application security platform, and ended up hitting every branch on the way down from the startup tree. When they sat down to figure out what they needed to do next, they combined their deep security tooling with a multi-modal platform, to enable complete AI governance in one central hub for regulated companies. This is the creation story of Liminal. SponsorsTiger DataProtected HarborRenderLinkshttps://www.liminal.ai/https://www.linkedin.com/in/swalchek/Checkout our episode stacks on Stacklist! https://stacks.codestory.co/ Hosted by Noah Labhart | Technical Founder & Startup Mentor.Our Sponsors:* Check out Perplexity and use my code CODESTORY for a great deal: https://www.perplexity.aiAdvertising Inquiries: https://redcircle.com/brandsPrivacy & Opt-Out: https://redcircle.com/privacy

Security teams spent decades begging for more logs. Now the enterprise is generating petabytes a day, and the thing drowning in it isn't just the SOC anymore, it's your AI agents too. In this episode, Ron sits down with Myke Lyons, CISO at Cribl, who cut his teeth in telemetry and logging decades ago and has landed right back there in the age of AI. Ron and Myke dig into why most telemetry failures aren't data problems at all, they're decisions nobody made about why the logs are being collected in the first place. Myke breaks down what to track on every agent in your environment, why token spend belongs on the security team's plate, why dashboards are quietly dying, and why treating an AI agent like just another employee is a mistake that's going to bite security teams hard. Underneath it all is one question Myke keeps circling back to: do you actually know what normal looks like for every agent in your environment?
