Shane Tews — Non-Resident Senior Fellow at AEI and the person who explained the internet to Capitol Hill No Password Required Season 7: Episode 7 – Shane Tews Shane Tews is a Non-Resident Senior Fellow at the American Enterprise Institute, where she focuses on cybersecurity, privacy, artificial intelligence, and internet governance. She is also President of Logan Circle Strategies, a strategic advisory firm working at the intersection of technology and policy. Before her think tank work, Shane helped introduce modems to the George H.W. Bush White House, walked the halls of Capitol Hill explaining the internet to blank-staring legislators, and spent years at VeriSign helping shape the foundational frameworks of how the internet would be governed. In this episode, Shane traces her unlikely path from the Bush administration to becoming one of Washington's most trusted voices on tech policy. She breaks down why regulating outcomes rather than inputs is the only sensible approach to technology governance, why the US and EU are operating from fundamentally different innovation philosophies, and why a national privacy bill is long overdue. She also explains why most organizations and individuals are far less protected than they think and why nobody knows who to call when something goes wrong. Jack Clabby and co-host Kayley Melton talk with Shane about legacy system vulnerabilities, the cybersecurity implications of agentic AI, and what policymakers absolutely must get right over the next decade. She also reflects on what the CISA reauthorization limbo means for companies that don't even know they've lost liability protection. In the Lifestyle Polygraph, Shane reveals she has 20,000 emails across eight accounts, admits she fakes laughs at bad jokes out of Midwestern politeness, shares her obsession with The Bear and Peaky Blinders, and tells us about her children's book project using Google Omni called "Shane on a Train."

What does it take for a nation to treat space not as a scientific hobby, but as a strategic necessity? Live from the 41st Space Symposium in Colorado Springs, Torsten Kriening sits down with Major General Michael Traut, Commander of the German Space Command, for a candid conversation about turning vision into execution.This episode moves from strategy to hard numbers: Germany's historic €35 billion (rising to roughly €45 billion) space investment, the new Space Safety and Security Strategy with its 65 named missions, and SATCOM Stage 4 - the largest space programme the Bundeswehr has ever attempted, a multi-orbit constellation of several hundred satellites modelled on the U.S. SDA's "rolling fleets" approach.Traut speaks frankly about the tensions shaping Europe's space moment: speed versus competition, the SPOCK reconnaissance awards and the risk of new monopolies, SIGINT from space, inspector satellites and counter-space capabilities, and how national capability (SATCOM Stage 4) and European cooperation (IRIS²) can reinforce rather than rival each other. With the clock ticking toward 2029, it's a clear-eyed look at how Germany intends to become a partner others can lean on - and why time, not money, is now the scarcest resource.Essential listening for anyone tracking the future of European security in orbit.To read: German Space Safety and Security StrategySpace Café Radio brings you talks, interviews, and reports from the team of SpaceWatchers while out on the road.

Connect to John Gilroy on LinkedIn https://www.linkedin.com/in/john-gilroy/ Want to listen to other episodes? www.Federaltechpodcast.com Angel Smith, President of Global Public Sector at Virtru, discussed the challenges of data interoperability in federal agencies, emphasizing that trust and policy issues often hinder data sharing more than technology. It took several years, but the federal government has realized that its defenses are not perfect and has had to adopt a zero-trust approach to limit access to important information. Zero Trust is Missing the Point During the interview, Angel Smith argues that Zero Trust seems to focus on the network and identity, rather than on data. While intended to secure infrastructure, these changes can create new attack vectors. Data Sovereignty is broken. Traditionally, a data set would reside in a hard drive in a server room down the hall. Because of this, thinking about security can be focused on the physical location of the data or its sovereignty. Sometimes, a strategic approach is necessary to protect data. This is an outdated approach because data can be protected by the data object itself, which can carry control. Security vs. Speed is a False Tradeoff. This legacy thinking also applies to security. Some will exist to control data because it has been viewed as too time-consuming. Smith also stressed the need for modern data governance to enable AI and other advanced technologies, advocating for a rethinking of legacy practices to enhance data security and usability without compromising mission speed.

At RSAC Conference 2026, Eric Herzog, Chief Marketing Officer of Infinidat, sat down with Sean Martin for a booth-side Brand Highlight that reframes a familiar blind spot. Infinidat is a high-end enterprise storage company serving global Fortune 500 organizations and mid-range managed service providers -- and Herzog argues that leaving storage out of a corporate cybersecurity strategy means leaving the largest concentration of enterprise data exposed. Infinidat embeds cybersecurity directly into its storage platform through InfiniSafe, a software suite that has earned recognition from both storage and cybersecurity analysts. The centerpiece of the offering is a written guarantee: any dataset, regardless of size, will be recovered in one minute or less. Herzog explains that this is backed by immutable snapshots that cannot be altered or deleted, a management plane separated from the data plane, and AI/ML-powered scanning through InfiniSafe Cyber Detection that validates a snapshot is clean before it is restored. The goal is a "known good copy" -- a forensically clean snapshot that can be brought back with confidence. Herzog notes that security teams often focus on confidentiality and availability while underweighting integrity. Infinidat's approach addresses all three: snapshots are verified clean, recovery is fast, and the process is demonstrable in live proof-of-concept environments. At the beginning of April 2026, Infinidat recovered six petabytes in three seconds in a live demo. This is a Brand Highlight.

The international world order is being shaken up, and Europe's place at the new table is far from certain. Russia's war against Ukraine continues unabated. What security strategy should Europe pursue?Last year, the NATO allies agreed in The Hague to spend 3.5 percent of their GDP on direct defence expenditure. What does that mean in practice? Will Europe succeed in overcoming national interests, fragmented production, and slow coordination? Will Europe be able to defend Ukraine?Together with Justyna Gotkowska, Deputy Director and Head of the Security and Defence Department at the OSW Centre for Eastern Studies based in Warsaw, we examine Europe's security from the perspective of those closest to Russia's war and its long-term consequences and her four-point plan for Ukraine, which offers a potential European counterstrategy in response to Russian ‘peace' proposals. She is joined in conversation by Alex Krijger and Nikki Sterkenburg.Information wars: about this series With this three-part programme series, which is partially funded by a Public Diplomacy Grant from NATO, we want to provide in-depth analysis of current affairs and facilitate nuanced debate, thus making complex material accessible. Russian-Western relations are shaped by war, in the broadest sense of the word. What are the consequences of the hybrid forms of warfare? Such as cyber- and psychological warfare, and economic sanctions.In order to understand the current state of affairs, the Information Wars series will focus on the larger historical, societal and cultural context of the relations between Ukraine and NATO member states on the one hand, and Russia on the other hand.Programme editors: Ianthe Mosselman and Dirk StruikZie het privacybeleid op https://art19.com/privacy en de privacyverklaring van Californië op https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

On this show, Alyssa McNamara Reed and Social Security expert Kurt Czarnowski talk about the complexities of Social Security benefits. The speakers outline the historical evolution of the program, explaining how eligibility shifted from a calendar-based system to one determined by credits and lifetime earnings. They clarify essential concepts such as full retirement age, the financial impact of early or delayed collection, and the specific rules governing spousal and divorced spouse benefits. Additionally, the discussion addresses the recent Fairness Act, which repealed certain pension offsets, and the projected funding shortfall facing the system in the coming decade. Throughout the dialogue, they emphasize that Social Security is meant to be a supplemental income source rather than a complete retirement solution. Alyssa McNamara Reed, CFP®is a financial planner with passion for the intersection of taxes and investing. Alyssa works with motivated savers, beneficiaries of estates, business owners, divorcees, and pre-retirees.

Often seen as the gold standard for societal resilience, Finland has many admirers. The Secretary General of its Security Committee, Petteri Korvala, describes Finland's approach. Many nations are exploring how to build societal resilience as part of a comprehensive approach to security. The Scandinavian countries are often seen as exemplars of best practice, with Finland arguably leading the pack. But delivering resilience through comprehensive security requires trust across all elements of society and a cultural shift as much as it needs the right structures and processes. In this episode, we hear from the Secretary General of Finland's Security Committee, Petteri Korvala, about how their comprehensive security system works. Petteri Korvala has over 30 years of experience in Finland's defence forces and internationally, including in the Ministry of Defence and in Finland's Permanent Representation to the European Union, as well as having served as a liaison officer in United States European Command.

Recorded live at the Cloud Connections event in Delray Beach, Doug Green, Publisher of Technology Reseller News, spoke with Darin Gull of C3 Complete about the growing importance of compliance, cyber resilience, and partner-centric security services in today's cloud and UCaaS ecosystem. Gull describes C3 Complete as an “anything IT” company with a clear mission: to complete a partner's portfolio without ever competing with it. Working exclusively through channel partners, C3 Complete focuses on filling gaps—particularly in security and compliance—while preserving partner ownership of the customer relationship. “We're here to complete, but never compete,” Gull explains, emphasizing the company's commitment to protecting partner equity. A central theme of the conversation is compliance, which Gull frames less as a punitive obligation and more as an education and awareness challenge. C3 Complete leads with what it calls cyber resilience—helping organizations understand what they are required to do, why it matters, and how to consistently track and maintain compliance over time. “Most compliance failures aren't bad actors trying to break rules,” Gull notes. “It's usually a lack of awareness.” C3 Complete's approach begins with deep listening and discovery. By understanding a client's operational realities and pain points, the company's subject-matter experts—guided by its security leadership—identify shortfalls, improve efficiency, and develop clear, actionable roadmaps to move customers from their current state to their desired level of compliance and security maturity. Gull also reflects on the relevance of the Cloud Communications Alliance community, noting that many of the challenges facing today's UCaaS and cloud providers—particularly around security, governance, and AI—mirror those seen in earlier phases of the industry, albeit at greater scale and complexity. As AI adoption accelerates, he sees compliance and governance as unresolved but critical questions that service providers must address proactively. Looking ahead to 2026, C3 Complete plans to expand its partner ecosystem, deepen its security offerings, and continue delivering what Gull calls “white-glove service without the insane price.” For MSPs and service providers lacking a full security stack, C3 Complete positions itself as a trusted extension of their business—stepping in when needed, then stepping back to ensure partners retain the customer relationship.

Guest: Royal Hansen, VP of Engineering at Google, former CISO of Alphabet Topics: The "God-Like Designer" Fallacy: You've argued that we need to move away from the "God-like designer" model of security—where we pre-calculate every risk like building a bridge—and towards a biological model. Can you explain why that old engineering mindset is becoming risky in today's cloud and AI environments? Resilience vs. Robustness: In your view, what is the practical difference between a robust system (like a fortress that eventually breaks) and a resilient system (like an immune system)? How does a CISO start shifting their team's focus from creating the former to nurturing the latter? Securing the Unknown: We're entering an era where AI agents will call other agents, creating pathways we never explicitly designed. If we can't predict these interactions, how can we possibly secure them? What does "emergent security" look like in practice? Primitives for Agents: You mentioned the need for new "biological primitives" for these agents—things like time-bound access or inherent throttling. Are these just new names for old concepts like Zero Trust, or is there something different about how we need to apply them to AI? The Compliance Friction: There's a massive tension between this dynamic, probabilistic reality and the static, checklist-based world of many compliance regimes. How do you, as a leader, bridge that gap? How do you convince an auditor or a board that a "probabilistic" approach doesn't just mean "we don't know for sure"? "Safe" Failures: How can organizations get comfortable with the idea of designing for allowable failure in their subsystems, rather than striving for 100% uptime and security everywhere?

Darren's open letter to the leadership of Sturgeon Lake Cree Nation and to Alberta's Chiefs goes viral. We chat about the bottleneck coming up in the Canada visa program, false accusations of Macron's husband/wife lead to charges and fines in dystopian France, and Freeland's money funneling pays off for her next career move. What are liquid trees and what is info-dynamics? More on Stranger Things, CERN, and occultism from Nick Hinton, In the second half we get deep into Venezuela, theories on Trump, and in the end our own theory of the near future and the main reason for all this. What should happen if a leader empty's jails into your country, steals oil, moves sanctioned product, etc, never mind drugs? We do not support this but this questions doesn't seem to get answered. The rules based order has not fixed anything and just makes it worse for people. What is to be done? Either way something much deeper is afoot. Is this for protection and the Monroe Doctrine? Is Canada next? and Greenland? Does Trump not want North America but North and South as per the Security Strategy?

Across 152 conversations this year, a set of recurring patterns kept surfacing, regardless of whether the discussion focused on application security, software supply chain risk, AI systems, or creative work. The industries varied. The roles varied. The challenges did not.One theme rises above the rest: visibility remains the foundation of everything else, yet organizations continue to accept blind spots as normal. Asset inventories are incomplete. Build systems are poorly understood. Dependencies change faster than teams can track them. The issue is not a lack of tools. It is a willingness to tolerate uncertainty because discovery feels hard or disruptive.Another pattern is equally consistent. Integration matters more than novelty. New features, including AI-driven ones, sound compelling until they fail to connect with what teams already rely on. Security programs fracture when tools operate in isolation. Coverage looks strong on paper while gaps quietly expand in practice. When tools fail to integrate into existing environments, they create complexity instead of reducing risk.Security also continues to struggle with how it shows up in daily work. Programs succeed when security is embedded into workflows, automated where possible, and invisible until it matters. They fail when security acts as a gate that arrives after decisions are already made. Teams either adopt security naturally or route around it entirely. There is no neutral middle ground.Context repeatedly separates effective leadership from noise. Risk only becomes meaningful when it is framed in terms of business operations, delivery speed, and real tradeoffs. Leaders who understand how the business actually functions communicate risk clearly and make better decisions under pressure.Finally, creativity remains undervalued in security conversations. Automation should remove repetitive tasks so people can focus on judgment, problem solving, and design. The same mindset that produces elegant guitars, photographs, or products applies directly to building resilient security programs.These five patterns are not independent ideas. Together, they describe a shift toward security that is visible, integrated, contextual, workflow-driven, and human-centered.Read the full article: https://www.linkedin.com/pulse/five-patterns-from-152-podcast-episodes-2025-changed-i-martin-cissp-st1ge________This story represents the results of an interactive collaboration between Human Cognition and Artificial Intelligence.Enjoy, think, share with others, and subscribe to "The Future of Cybersecurity" newsletter on LinkedIn: https://itspm.ag/future-of-cybersecuritySincerely, Sean Martin and TAPE9________Sean Martin is a life-long musician and the host of the Music Evolves Podcast; a career technologist, cybersecurity professional, and host of the Redefining CyberSecurity Podcast; and is also the co-host of the On Location Event Coverage Podcast.

15. Trump's Security Strategy: Homeland Defense Lacks Global Clarity. John Yoo praises the strategy's focus on homeland defense and the Western Hemisphere, reviving a corollary to the Monroe Doctrine.

The Administration's new National Security Strategy document contains exaggerations, contradictions, insults, racism, posturing and slamming, which is to say nothing of the important topics it does not address. Amb. Charlie Ray takes the ideological manifesto apart for us, with discussion of the existential consequences for America and for our species.
As both the year and the current series of The Briefing Room draw to a close, Europe and much of the world have been digesting a lengthy document outlining the Trump administration's view of foreign policy. The National Security Strategy covers much of the globe but extra special vitriol was reserved for Europe with dire warnings that the continent is facing “civilisational erasure” partly due to immigration. At the same time the growing influence of “patriotic European parties” (those on the far right) is welcomed. But there's more - the US wants to dominate the “Western Hemisphere” - the Americas and countries on its doorstep. It wants more trade with Asia and China, as well as the Middle East. But there are notable absences -there's no talk of a significant threat from either Russia or China. David Aaronovitch and guests discuss what all this means and ask how worried we, in Europe, should be about the current US view of the world?Guests: Frank Gardner, BBC Security Correspondent Shashank Joshi, Defence Editor, The Economist Rebecca Lissner, Senior fellow for U.S. foreign policy at the Council on Foreign Relations and lecturer, Jackson School of Global Affair, Yale University.

Today's show focuses on the details and directions for the US Empire revealed in Trump's just released 'National Security Strategy of the USA' document. Is the US Empire re-orienting and restructuring? IF so where? A detailed look and analysis of the document, including its new priority and focus on the Western Hemisphere, a longer term focus on Asia-China-Taiwan, and its criticism of Europe and NATO. The document confirms Trump economic and geopolitical policies to date, where it's going next three years, and predictions previously made on this radio show. The show also reviews key economic and political events of the past week. (Notice: next week's show will focus on our annual review of the US & global economy in 2025).
Has Trump's 2025 National Security Strategy officially upended 80 years of American foreign policy? Why does it warn of Europe's "civilisational erasure" while downplaying threats from its traditional adversaries?And is it finally time for the UK and Europe to chart their own course?

Every four years, the U.S. government releases something called a ‘National Security Strategy' (NSS). The Trump administration released its NSS in the last few days, and the media in the U.S. and all over the world is buzzing about what this strategy means. Today, we will talk about some of its key positions and answer the question: do they constitute a new foreign policy for the United States? Brian Becker is joined by Layan Fuleihan to discuss.This is a preview of a patrons-only episode.

The newly published US ‘National Security Strategy' is being seen by some as further evidence that in the era of Trump western nations are no longer united in the way they view the world. From its scathing narrative of European decline, to an altogether rosier depiction of Russia, the document has turned longstanding US foreign policy on its head. So what can it tell us about Washington's intentions when it comes to ending the war in Ukraine?Also today, Jamie and Vitaly are joined by Mariam Lambert, co-founder of the Emile Foundation, an organisation focussed on reuniting Ukrainian children with their families after being forcibly relocated by Russia. Experts at Yale University estimate there could be as many as 35,000 Ukrainian children being held illegally in Russia and its occupied territories. Russia insists it is protecting vulnerable children by moving them away from active war zones to ensure their safety. Today's episode is presented by Jamie Coomarasamy and Vitaly Shevchenko.

Dmitry Peskov, the Kremlin's spokesman, said that America's new National Security Strategy was “largely consistent with our vision”. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
Donald Trump has detonated a political earthquake with a National Security Strategy that doesn't just tweak America's global role, it torches seven decades of US foreign policy. In a move that's left European allies stunned and scrambling, Trump's new blueprint casts Europe as weak, directionless and on the brink of “civilisational erasure,” while pointedly avoiding calling Russia a threat. And guess who's absolutely thrilled? The Kremlin. Vladimir Putin's spokesman practically applauded the document, hailing it as “largely consistent” with Moscow's own vision. While EU leaders warn the strategy dangerously rewrites reality and echoes far-right rhetoric, Trump is pushing ahead, embracing “patriotic” parties across Europe and accusing the EU of holding back peace in Ukraine. It's a bold, brash, America-First gambit and one that's left America's closest allies wondering if Washington has just switched sides.

The White House has released a controversial new National Security Strategy (NSS) that marks a major realignment of U.S. foreign policy under the "America First" banner. The document lays out Trump's vision for ensuring America's "dominance" in the Western Hemisphere, cultivating "resistance" within Europe, reestablishing "strategic stability" with Russia, and accepting Middle Eastern leaders "as they are." Current and former European officials are already pushing back against the strategy's assertions regarding European alliances and demographics.

A new report says retirees who use a so-called "bridge strategy" can actually spend more and need fewer assets to retire securely. That's right. By delaying Social Security and using other savings to "bridge the gap," you could improve your lifetime income, reduce longevity risk, and build more peace of mind into your plan. We will break down the research and find ways to make Social Security work harder for you. After that, I'll answer a listener question: What's the difference between a 5 year MYGA and a 5 year SPIA?
