In this episode of the Brilliance Security Magazine Podcast, host Steven Bowcut sits down with John Sobczak, founder and CEO of NXT1, to explore how software development teams can accelerate time to market without compromising on security or compliance. John shares how his career shaped the vision behind NXT1 and discusses the structural pitfalls that often delay or derail promising SaaS startups. This engaging conversation is packed with actionable insights for developers, founders, and investors navigating the complex intersection of speed, scale, and security.SummaryJohn Sobczak brings decades of experience in enterprise technology and government cybersecurity to this discussion, offering a compelling argument for embedding security from the very first line of code. He outlines how modern SaaS development is hampered by excessive cognitive load on developers, who are often forced to juggle core product development with complex compliance frameworks. This leads to delays, technical debt, and avoidable risk.NXT1's solution is LaunchIT, a turnkey platform designed to provide secure, compliant infrastructure out of the box. Sobczak explains how inheritance—not just guardrails—makes the difference. By giving developers access to hardened, policy-aligned environments that meet standards like SOC 2, HIPAA, and FedRAMP, NXT1 dramatically shortens the path from idea to revenue. This also reduces founder and investor risk while increasing the cost for adversaries targeting early-stage SaaS companies.Throughout the episode, Sobczak emphasizes the importance of building with scale and regulation in mind—even if those market demands aren't immediate. He notes that most early-stage teams wait too long to consider security, mistakenly treating compliance as a checklist to be addressed after product development. Instead, NXT1 aims to "meet customers where they are," helping both startups and more mature companies seamlessly scale into new verticals like healthcare and public sector without rebuilding from scratch.He also touches on the cultural shifts required in development organizations: making security everyone's responsibility, automating infrastructure to reduce human error, and resisting the temptation to reinvent the wheel when platforms already exist that can shoulder much of the compliance burden.Whether you're an entrepreneur launching a new SaaS product or a development leader in a growth-stage company, this episode is a must-listen for those looking to secure their software—and their future—from the ground up.

"First day, worst day, every day — that's what we're built for." — Patrick Quirk, President & GM, Opengear At Cisco Live 2025 in San Diego, Patrick Quirk, President and General Manager of Opengear, joined Technology Reseller News publisher Doug Green to unveil a major innovation in network resilience: Opengear's new Foundational Support platform. Designed to meet the growing demands of increasingly complex, high-density network environments, the SLA-backed solution debuts as part of Opengear's commitment to full-lifecycle customer support. “It's not just about selling equipment,” said Quirk. “It's about walking with the customer through every stage of the network's lifecycle — from deployment to daily operations to disaster recovery.” A long-standing Cisco partner, Opengear has evolved from traditional console servers to a critical infrastructure provider, helping companies maintain uptime in an era where milliseconds matter — especially amid today's AI-driven network traffic spikes. “Outages aren't just inconvenient,” Quirk noted. “They're expensive. We're seeing potential losses of $21,000 per minute during downtime.” Opengear's edge? Out-of-band management. Unlike in-band VLAN control planes, which can be compromised during incidents or overloaded by data traffic, out-of-band infrastructure operates on a completely separate path. This architecture allows for immediate network visibility and control during even the worst disruptions, such as fiber cuts or cyberattacks. Supporting both operational and compliance objectives, Opengear enables organizations to maintain certifications like ISO, SOC 2, and NIST. “We're the wrapper around your network,” said Quirk, emphasizing the company's ability to enforce security and governance alongside performance. The conversation also spotlighted Opengear's recent AI-focused global research, which found a “lens gap” between network engineers and the C-suite. While both groups recognize AI's potential, engineers view it as a productivity tool, whereas executives prioritize compliance and customer value. “There's alignment,” Quirk said. “It just needs more conversation.” At Cisco Live, Opengear is exhibiting at booth 4324 and hosting sessions on topics like agentic AI and network strategy. More details are available at opengear.com.

Segment 1: Erik Bloch Interview The math on SOC AI just isn't adding up. It's not easy to do the math, either, as each SOC automation vendor is tackling alert fatigue and SecOps assistants a bit differently. Fortunately for us and our audience, Erik Bloch met with many of these vendors at RSAC and is going to share what he learned with us! Segment 2: Enterprise Weekly News In this week's enterprise security news, 1. Some interesting new companies getting funding 2. Chainguard isn't unique anymore 3. AI slop coming to open source soon 4. Wiz dominance analysis 5. the IKEA effect in cybersecurity 6. LLM model collapse 7. vulnerabilities 8. DFIR reports 9. and fun with LinkedIn and prompt injection! Segment 3: RSAC Interviews runZero Interview with HD Moore Despite becoming a checkbox feature in major product suites, vulnerability management is fundamentally broken. The few remaining first-wave vulnerability scanners long ago shifted their investments and attention into adjacent markets to maintain growth, bolting on fragmented functionality that's added complexity without effectively securing today's attack surfaces. Meanwhile, security teams are left contending with massive blind spots and disparate tools that collectively fail to detect exposures that are commonly exploited by attackers. Our industry is ready for change. Jeff and HD explore the current state of vulnerability management, what's required to truly prevent real-world incidents, new perspectives that are challenging the status quo, and innovative approaches that are finally overcoming decades old problems to usher in a new era of vulnerability management.

Imprivata interview with Joel Burleson-Davis Organizations in mission-critical industries are acutely aware of the growing cyber threats, like the Medusa ransomware gang attacking critical US sectors, but are wary that implementing stricter security protocols will slow productivity and create new barriers for employees. This is a valid concern, but organizations should not accept the trade-off between the inevitability of a breach by avoiding productivity-dampening security measures, or the drop in employee productivity and rise in frustration caused by implementing security measures that might mitigate a threat like Medusa. In this conversation, Joel will discuss how organizations can build a robust security strategy that does not impede productivity.

Guests: Eric Foster, CEO of Tenex.AI Venkata Koppaka, CTO of Tenex.AI Topics: Why is your AI-powered MDR special? Why start an MDR from scratch using AI? So why should users bet on an “AI-native” MDR instead of an MDR that has already got its act together and is now applying AI to an existing set of practices? What's the current breakdown in labor between your human SOC analysts vs your AI SOC agents? How do you expect this to evolve and how will that change your unit economics? What tasks are humans uniquely good at today's SOC? How do you expect that to change in the next 5 years? We hear concerns about SOC AI missing things –but we know humans miss things all the time too. So how do you manage buyer concerns about the AI agents missing things? Let's talk about how you're helping customers measure your efficacy overall. What metrics should organizations prioritize when evaluating MDR?

FoIP: The Overlooked MSP Opportunity, Many businesses still rely on fax to send and receive legally binding orders, insurance documents, and compliance paperwork "If our fax or email system fails, that's a catastrophe—we lose connection to our customers and orders stop coming in." — Martin Hager, Founder & CEO, Retarus Spring 2025 has been dominated by AI, cybersecurity, branded calling, and POTS replacement. But in this special Technology Reseller News podcast, we return to a foundational—and often forgotten—technology that continues to power mission-critical communications: fax. Martin Hager, CEO of Retarus, joined Doug Green to discuss how the Munich-based cloud communications company was recently named a Leader in the IDC MarketScape for Worldwide Digital Fax Solutions—the only European provider to earn that distinction. “Fax” may still conjure images of curling thermal paper and screeching machines, but Hager wants the channel to see it for what it is today: FoIP—Fax over IP—highly secure, server-to-server communication trusted by the world's largest enterprises. With over 700 million fax pages sent annually through Retarus' privately run global data centers, the company plays a critical role in industries ranging from finance to healthcare to manufacturing. Hidden Costs, Missed Messages Why should MSPs and service providers care about fax in 2024? As Hager explained, a 1% improvement in fax reliability can save large enterprises hundreds of thousands of dollars in administrative costs, regulatory penalties, and customer churn. One client lost $860,000 from a single failed fax tied to a regulatory deadline. Many businesses still rely on fax to send and receive legally binding orders, insurance documents, and compliance paperwork. With analog lines disappearing and traditional fax servers aging out, there's a massive opportunity to consolidate and modernize fax infrastructure using FoIP. A Channel-Ready Market More than 80% of Retarus' business flows through the channel, and Hager says it's an easy upsell for MSPs and agents already providing voice or UCaaS services. Whether it's a dentist office, a healthcare network, or a manufacturer, fax remains a critical link in business operations. Retarus' solutions offer full delivery traceability, SOC 2 and ISO 27001 compliance, and direct integrations with enterprise apps and multifunction devices. With a simple conversation—"How do you send orders?"—partners can uncover opportunities that deliver both operational improvements and recurring revenue.

De què parlen els catalans? El 29 d'abril se'n va anar la llum a tota la península Ibèrica durant bona part del dia. Què va passar exactament? Com ens va afectar? Com ho vam viure? Ens va servir per reflexionar? Tema del dia Aprofitant la reflexió sobre la dependència de l'electricitat, parlem dels electrodomèstics i aparells electrònics que tenim a casa, per veure fins a quin punt són necessaris o prescindibles. Som-hi! Bonus Parlem dels aparells electrònics que es posen de moda. Transcripció Andreu: [0:15] Bon dia, Sílvia! Sílvia: [0:16] Bon dia, Andreu! Andreu: [0:18] I bon dia a tothom! Com estem? Sílvia: [0:20] Bé! I tu? Andreu: [0:22] Sí? Tot bé! Content, perquè hem rebut un missatge d'un oient que, de fet, tu coneixes o vas conèixer personalment. [Jo?] Sí. L'any passat, recordes, durant el Campus d'Estiu, que un dia em vas venir i em dius: "Andreu, no saps què m'ha passat! Estàvem al metro i m'ha vingut un noi que m'ha reconegut…" Sílvia: [0:40] Sí, vam xerrar! Vam xerrar aquest noi, jo, i em sembla que estàvem amb el Randy. Andreu: [0:47] Doncs es diu Lars. No sé si te'n recordes o si t'ho va dir. Sílvia: [0:50] A veure, soc molt dolenta amb els noms, llavors no, no, no… Seré sincera. Andreu: [0:54] Bé, doncs el Lars, un any després, pràcticament, ens ha enviat un àudio i ens fa una proposta interessant. Mira, te'l poso perquè la sentis: Lars: [1:04] Hola, equip d'Easy Catalan, què tal? Soc en Lars, havíem parlat una… (bé), un cop, perquè havia conegut la Sílvia al metro al Campus de l'Estiu, i fa poquet que he començat a treballar en un lloc, en un teatre, que es diu El Teatre Més Petit del Món. Es troba a Gràcia, al carrer de l'Encarnació, i allà fem... (bé), hi ha un pianista d'aquí que es diu Lluís d'Arquer i fa concerts de piano tots els dijous i dissabtes. I jo, per sort, m'he fet amic d'ell i fa tres mesos que he començat a treballar amb ell fent de taquilla i tal. I doncs, m'encantaria convidar-vos, o sigui, convidar-vos a vosaltres que vingueu al teatre a veure un concert un dia quan vulgueu i després, (bé), si us interessa, havia pensat que estaria guai fer alguna cosa amb el Lluís. Potser durant el Campus d'Estiu podria ser interessant venir al teatre amb els estudiants perquè coneguin un espai superbonic a vila de Gràcia, podríem parlar amb el Lluís de la seva música, de la seva història. Em podeu escriure i teniu dues entrades, (bé), o quatre, si voleu venir vosaltres dos o no sé qui més hi ha a l'equip. Que vagi molt bé, una abraçada. Adeu! Sílvia: [2:50] Renoi, escolta, ens conviden i tot, Andreu! Andreu: [2:54] Escolta, més àudios com aquest, eh? Nosaltres oberts a... Sílvia: [2:59] No ens movem per interès, eh? Però es nota una mica, Andreu. Andreu: [3:04] No, a veure, o sigui, carai, quina il·lusió, no?, que ens convidin a un espectacle. Sílvia: [3:10] Moltíssimes gràcies, moltíssimes gràcies, Lars. Andreu: [3:13] Sí, moltes gràcies per pensar en nosaltres.

In this episode, Subo Guha, Vice President of Product Management at Stellar Cyber, shares how the company is reshaping cybersecurity operations for managed service providers (MSPs) and their customers. Stellar Cyber's mission is to simplify security without compromising depth—making advanced cybersecurity capabilities accessible to organizations without enterprise-level resources.Subo walks through the foundations of their open XDR platform, which allows customers to retain the endpoint and network tools they already use—such as CrowdStrike or SentinelOne—without being locked into a single ecosystem. This flexibility proves especially valuable to MSSPs managing dozens or hundreds of customers with diverse toolsets, including those that have grown through acquisitions. The platform's modular sensor technology supports IT, OT, and hybrid environments, offering deep packet inspection, network detection, and even user behavior analytics to flag potential lateral movement or anomalous activity.One of the most compelling updates from the conversation is the introduction of their autonomous SOC capability. Subo emphasizes this is not about replacing humans but amplifying their efforts. The platform groups alerts into actionable cases, reducing noise and allowing analysts to respond faster. Built-in machine learning and threat intelligence feeds enrich data as it enters the system, helping determine if something is benign or a real threat.The episode also highlights new program launches like Infinity, which enhances business development and peer collaboration for MSSP partners, and their Cybersecurity Alliance, which deepens integration across a wide variety of security tools. These efforts reflect Stellar Cyber's strong commitment to ecosystem support and customer-centric growth.Subo closes by reinforcing the importance of scalability and affordability. Stellar Cyber offers a single platform with unified licensing to help MSSPs grow without adding complexity or cost. It's a clear statement: powerful security doesn't need to be out of reach for smaller teams or companies.This episode offers a practical view into what it takes to operationalize cybersecurity across diverse environments—and why automation with human collaboration is the path forward.Learn more about Stellar Cyber: https://itspm.ag/stellar-cyber--inc--357947Note: This story contains promotional content.

Organizations are demanding more from their IT management platforms—not just toolsets, but tailored systems that meet specific business and security objectives. Vivin Sathyan, Senior Technology Evangelist at ManageEngine, shares how the company is responding with an integrated approach that connects IT, security, and business outcomes.ManageEngine, a division of Zoho Corporation, now offers a suite of over 60 products that span identity and access management, SIEM, endpoint protection, service management, and analytics. These components don't just coexist—they interact contextually. Vivin outlines a real-world example from the healthcare sector, where a SIM tool detects abnormal login behavior, triggers an identity system to challenge access, and then logs the incident for IT service resolution. This integrated chain reflects a philosophy where response is not just fast, but connected and accountable.At the heart of the platform's effectiveness is contextual intelligence—layered between artificial intelligence and business insights—to power decision-making that aligns with enterprise risk and compliance needs. Whether it's SOC analysts triaging events, CIS admins handling system hygiene, or CISOs aligning actions with corporate goals, the tools are tailored to fit roles, not just generic functions. According to Vivin, this role-based approach is critical to eliminating silos and ensuring teams speak the same operational and risk language.AI continues to play a role in enhancing that coordination, but ManageEngine is cautious not to follow hype for its own sake. The company has invested in its own AI and ML capabilities since 2012, and recently launched an agent studio—but only after evaluating how new models can meaningfully add value. Vivin points out that enterprise use cases often benefit more from small, purpose-built language models than from massive general-purpose ones.Perhaps most compelling is ManageEngine's global-first strategy. With operations in nearly 190 countries and 18+ of its own data centers, the company prioritizes proximity to customers—not just for technical support, but for cultural understanding and local compliance. That closeness informs both product design and customer trust, especially as regulations around data sovereignty intensify.This episode challenges listeners to consider whether their tools are merely present—or actually connected. Are you enabling collaboration through context, or just stitching systems together and calling it a platform?Learn more about ManageEngine: https://itspm.ag/manageen-631623Note: This story contains promotional content.

How can sociology reclaim its commitment to rigorous inquiry and viewpoint diversity? Today, John Tomasi sits with Jukka Savolainen, Ph.D., Sociology professor at Wayne State University in Detroit, Michigan, and the moderator of the Heterodox Academy's Sociology community. They discuss the discipline's current challenges, including ideological bias and lack of viewpoint diversity, and explore potential paths toward reform. Jukka shares his journey into sociology and his decision to leave Finland to pursue a PhD in the United States due to concerns about postmodernist influences in Finnish sociology. He addresses the core aims of sociology, its present state of fragmentation, and the impact of ideological bias on research and discourse. Jukka highlights the importance of empirical evidence and viewpoint diversity while pointing out taboos and restrictions on certain topics within the field.The conversation also examines the role of external interventions, using the example of the Danish government's restructuring of the sociology department at Copenhagen University in the 1980s, and the more recent actions by the state of Florida.
