Transitioning a mature organization from an API-first model to an AI-first model is no small feat. In this episode, Yash Kosaraju, CISO of Sendbird, shares the story of how they pivoted from a traditional chat API platform to an AI agent platform and how security had to evolve to keep up.Yash spoke about the industry's obsession with "Zero Trust," arguing instead for a practical "Multi-Layer Trust" approach that assumes controls will fail . We dive deep into the specific architecture of securing AI agents, including the concept of a "Trust OS," dealing with new incident response definitions (is a wrong AI answer an incident?), and the critical need to secure the bridge between AI agents and customer environments .This episode is packed with actionable advice for AppSec engineers feeling overwhelmed by the speed of AI. Yash shares how his team embeds security engineers into sprint teams for real-time feedback, the importance of "AI CTFs" for security awareness, and why enabling employees with enterprise-grade AI tools is better than blocking them entirely .Questions asked:Guest Socials - Yash's LinkedinPodcast Twitter - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@CloudSecPod⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠If you want to watch videos of this LIVE STREAMED episode and past episodes - Check out our other Cloud Security Social Channels:-⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Cloud Security Podcast- Youtube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠- ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Cloud Security Newsletter ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠If you are interested in AI Cybersecurity, you can check out our sister podcast -⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ AI Security Podcast⁠Questions asked:(00:00) Introduction(02:20) Who is Yash Kosaraju?

A new report from Stanford and Common Sense Media finds that more than half of U.S. teens use AI chatbots for companionship. But, according to Dr. Darja Djordjevic, an adolescent and adult psychiatrist who co-authored the research, the bots aren't equipped to provide the kind of emotional support young people need when dealing with a mental health issue.Dr. Djordjevic and her team simulated conversations involving various mental health concerns with four of the most popular consumer chatbots and identified several risks; chiefly, their tendency to be sycophantic. A note, this conversation mentions suicide and self-harm.

BONUS: Impact Engineering—Finding Agile's Lost North Star With Tom Gilb and Simon Holzapfel The Clarity Problem: Why Organizations Start with "Fuzzy B*S*!" "Everybody seems to start from a position of fuzzy b*s*. Nice-sounding words. Management does it, professors do it, politicians do it. And they don't even feel very guilty about it."   Tom Gilb doesn't mince words when describing how most organizations define their objectives. The fundamental problem isn't a lack of ambition—it's a lack of clarity. When leaders are asked about their critical values like "extremely high security" or "employee happiness," they typically respond with circular definitions that provide no actionable direction. Tom's approach starts by exposing this gap and then demonstrating that any value—no matter how "soft" or intangible it seems—can be quantified. Using AI tools, he's shown clients over 1,400 different ways to measure human happiness alone. Why Agile Lost Its North Star "Agile's lost its North Star because the economic problems it was trying to solve within the organization are now mismatched with the digital world."   Simon Holzapfel offers a structural analysis: Agile developed primarily to allay the concerns of pre-digital capital—investors who needed reassurance that their money wouldn't disappear into failed projects. But today's digital economy operates differently. Capital now moves like a service (SaaS model), and innovation is fundamentally stochastic—you can't predict when breakthroughs will happen. Organizations using flow-focused tools when the real problem is value creation are applying yesterday's solutions to today's challenges. The First Step: Quantify Your Critical Values "If you ask AI to quantify employee happiness a hundred different ways, it will do it in one minute for free. So you can no longer be in denial."   The path forward starts with brutal honesty about what your organization actually cares about. Tom's approach involves:   Identifying the top 10 critical stakeholder values Defining clear scales of measure for each Establishing where you are now (status) Setting where you need to be to survive (tolerable level) Defining what success looks like (target/goal level)   This isn't about adding bureaucracy—it's about creating shared clarity that enables everyone to row in the same direction.   About Tom Gilb and Simon Holzapfel   Tom Gilb, born in the US, lived in London, and then moved to Norway in 1958. An independent teacher, consultant, and writer, he has worked in software engineering, corporate top management, and large-scale systems engineering. As the saying goes, Tom was writing about Agile before Agile was named. In 1976, Tom introduced the term "evolutionary" in his book Software Metrics, advocating for development in small, measurable steps. Today, we talk about Evo, the name Tom uses to describe his approach. Tom has worked with Dr. Deming and holds a certificate personally signed by him. You can listen to Tom Gilb's previous episodes here.    You can link with Tom Gilb on LinkedIn    Simon Holzapfel is an educator, coach, and learning innovator who helps teams work with greater clarity, speed, and purpose. He specializes in separating strategy from tactics, enabling short-cycle decision-making and higher-value workflows. Simon has spent his career coaching individuals and teams to achieve performance with deeper meaning and joy. Simon is also the author of the Equonomist newsletter on Substack.

If life has been lifing hard lately and you're wondering, "How am I supposed to keep showing up in my business like this?"…this episode is going to blow your mind in the most practical way. Today I'm joined by Jordan Gill, creator of Systems Saved Me, longtime VIP Day queen, and the systems brain you wish you had on retainer. We talk about how she turned a 3-hour daily school commute into a content machine that produces up to 80 pieces of content a day, without her sitting at a laptop, and without sounding like an AI robot. This conversation is part systems masterclass, part permission slip to build a life-first business and let automation and collaborations do the heavy lifting. In this episode, we dive into: How Jordan accidentally discovered she's a "systems person" and went from content strategist for a big-name online brand to founder of Systems Saved Me. Her exact "car-to-content" workflow: How she uses a 45-minute school run to answer 10 interview-style questions Why each question becomes 8 pieces of content across platforms The tools she uses (Cleft, Telegram, Zapier, Airtable, ChatGPT, Metricool) to automate everything behind the scenes. Using AI without losing your voice: how Jordan uses AI to organize, structure, and repurpose her actual words, not replace them. The number one system she recommends for non-systems people who feel overwhelmed (spoiler: it's your scheduler, not a 47-step backend build). Collaboration as a growth strategy – how Jordan approaches collabs so they feel like real relationships, not awkward "networking." Why some of her best clients come from collaborations and how she thinks about long-game reciprocity (not tit-for-tat). The "unusual" ways she runs her business: Why she's never required collaborators or speakers to promote her events Why she has always paid her speakers and how that aligns with her values Her philosophy on creating share-worthy offers that people can't help talking about Connect with Jordan →Get Her Carpool Content System Here: https://systemssavedme.spiffy.co/a/Y7zFnxeG7n/5720  →Connect with Jordan on Instagram: @systemssavedme   Connect with Meg →Snag your seat in the Edge Led Launch System Workshop: https://meganyelaney.com/black-friday-workshop-opt-in  This workshop will show you how to choose the right topics, craft edge-led messaging, and structure launches that convert even when your Instagram reach is trash. →Come say hi on Instagram: https://www.instagram.com/meganyelaney

Send us a textWelcome to the Adore series on the Restless Ones Podcast! In this episode, hosts Brennan and Zach dive into one of the most talked-about topics in modern worship culture: AI-generated worship music.What You'll DiscoverWith AI artist Solomon Ray making waves by hitting #1 on Christian music charts, we explore the question everyone's asking: Can artificial intelligence create real worship?Key ConversationsCan AI Worship God? - We examine whether something without a soul, emotions, or authentic self can truly worship, or if it's more like a rock crying out (Luke 19:40).Using AI as a Tool - Is AI-generated worship music like a piano—a neutral tool that can facilitate worship? We discuss when it's helpful and when it becomes a dangerous crutch that short-circuits intimacy with God.The Power of Story - Discover why knowing the story behind a song matters so much and how AI's lack of history and authenticity creates shallow worship experiences.Emotion & Worship - Explore how worship is primarily a response to seeing Jesus, why emotion matters (but isn't everything), and what to do when you're not feeling it.Community & Hunger - Brennan shares a powerful testimony from a house of prayer where hunger in the room transformed his entire worship experience.Challenging MomentsWhat happens when we use worship to get something instead of simply beholding Jesus?Are we replacing the Holy Spirit's role of unveiling Jesus with ChatGPT?Why microwave Christianity through AI threatens the beautiful wrestle of growing close to GodThe Heart of It AllAt the end of the day, worship isn't about performance, perfect lyrics, or even the latest technology. It's about bringing your authentic self before a real Jesus sitting on a real throne in a real place—and responding to His beauty with everything you have.This episode will challenge you to examine what worship really is, why it matters, and how to protect the intimacy with God that makes worship truly come alive.Support the show

This is a special episode, highlighting a session from ELC Annual 2025! The true promise of AI isn't in replicating human intelligence. It's in developing entirely new forms of non-human intelligence that perceive and understand the world in fundamentally different ways. Jamie Lien (Co-Founder and Chief Scientist @ Archetype AI) and Rashi Agarwal (Head of AI Engineering @ GoodLeap) explore the emergence of "Physical AI" - machines that sense the world through modalities beyond human biology to form internal representations free from our biases. This means building machines that can directly sense the physical world through modalities beyond human biology, form their own internal representations and interpretations free from our biases, and then translate that understanding back to us in human terms. ABOUT JAIME LIENJaime Lien, Ph.D. is Co-Founder and Chief Scientist at Archetype AI, a pioneering startup advancing Physical AI, artificial intelligence that understands the real world through real-time sensor data fusion.With over a dacade of experience in radar-based sensing, signal processing, and hardware engineering, Jaime's career bridges cutting-edge research and consumer-ready innovation. Before Archetype, she led radar sensing development for Google ATAP's Project Soli and contributed wireless communication and localization expertise at NASA's Jet Propulsion Laboratory. ABOUT RASHI AGRAWALRashi Agrawal is Head of AI Engineering at GoodLeap, where she leads enterprise-wide AI initiatives that deliver real business impact. An accomplished speaker, she covers the latest in AI, including context engineering, evaluations, and multi-agent collaboration, while driving Applied AI innovation in the enterprise. Previously, she scaled engineering teams at Yahoo, advancing its multibillion-dollar advertising business. A passionate world traveler to 40+ countries, Rashi brings global perspective and energy to her leadership and storytelling. SHOW NOTES:Archetype AI's mission: Building a foundation model for physical reality (2:24)The potential for discovery: Using AI to observe phenomena humans cannot perceive (3:36)Augmentation vs. Replacement: Giving humans "superpowers" rather than automating them away (5:48)The "Perfect Storm" for Physical AI: Transformers, self-supervised learning, and commodity sensors (6:04)Defining “Non-Human Intelligence” and removing the constraints of human labels (8:34)Why language is inherently lossy and insufficient for true physical understanding (10:28)Real-world application: How Physical AI aids safety decision-making in the solar industry (12:35)Use case: Improving pedestrian safety and traffic signaling in Bellevue (14:51)The biggest engineering leadership challenge: Embracing the “messiness” of real-world data (16:21)Q&A: Why we shouldn't teach AI physical laws, but let it discover them (18:50)Q&A: Validating models when there is a defined ground truth vs. subjective language (20:49)Q&A: Compute requirements and the future of active learning at the edge (22:05) LINKS AND RESOURCESVideo version of Jaime and Rashi's session at ELC Annual 2025 This episode wouldn't have been possible without the help of our incredible production team:Patrick Gallagher - Producer & Co-HostJerry Li - Co-HostNoah Olberding - Associate Producer, Audio & Video Editor https://www.linkedin.com/in/noah-olberding/Dan Overheim - Audio Engineer, Dan's also an avid 3D printer - https://www.bnd3d.com/Ellie Coggins Angus - Copywriter, Check out her other work at https://elliecoggins.com/about/ Hosted by Simplecast, an AdsWizz company.

Ryan Collins calls himself a garbage man, but he's also the Managing Director at Tahoe Truckee Sierra Disposal (TTSD), a third-generation waste collection and recycling company in Northern California. After a stint in Silicon Valley, he came back to join the family business and walked into a world still powered by slide rulers, highlighters, and paper-heavy workflows. Today, his team is building in-house AI tools that are replacing expensive software and solving real operational problems across the business — all with a lean budget, limited tech experience, and a workforce that now regularly pitches their own automation ideas. We talk through how this transformation actually happened. Starting with Excel and a problem-first mindset, Ryan's weekend vibe coding projects grew into a full-on tech capability at TTSD. From saving $30,000 a year with a $75 microcontroller to avoiding six-figure SaaS spends with local AI tools, this episode is packed with practical stories. We also get into the risks of overengineering, how to decide when to bring in real software engineers, and what hiring looks like when you're prioritizing attitude and curiosity over resumes. If you're looking to build a culture of innovation, even in a non-tech industry, this one is worth a listen.

Matt Bitzegaio and Noah Barnett discuss how nonprofit leaders should think about AI implementation in their organizations. They explore the difference between AI as an adjacent tool versus AI embedded within existing workflows, using DonorDock's "Otto" feature as an example. The hosts provide practical advice for nonprofit leaders, including taking inventory of current AI usage, establishing organizational policies, and identifying processes where AI can drive efficiency, effectiveness, and expansion. They emphasize that AI should augment human expertise rather than replace it, particularly in areas like donor relationships and storytelling. The conversation covers both the opportunities and anxieties surrounding AI adoption, offering a framework for leaders to gradually integrate AI tools while maintaining focus on authentic human connections with supporters.

Today's quick episode is all about the one thing most high achievers avoid but desperately need: space to think.So many of us stay busy out of habit, even when we say we want change. But your next level doesn't come from doing more—it comes from creating room for clarity, intuition, and the ideas you can't access when you're running nonstop.I'm sharing a powerful question I'm giving all my clients for 2026:If a billion-dollar CEO took over your business and life, what are the first three things they'd remove from your plate?To grow, you need four things: clarity, confidence, space, and delegation. And if you think you don't have time for any of this—I promise, your screen time says otherwise. If you enjoyed this episode, make sure and give us a five star rating  and leave us a comment on iTunes, Podcast Addict, Podchaser and Castbox about what you'd like us to talk about that will help you realize that at any moment, any day, you too can decide, it's your turn! 

In this episode, Cliff Crosland, CEO & co-founder of Scanner.dev, shares his candid journey of trying (and initially failing) to build an in-house security data lake to replace an expensive traditional SIEM.Cliff explains the economic breaking point where scaling a SIEM became "more expensive than the entire budget for the engineering team". He details the technical challenges of moving terabytes of logs to S3 and the painful realization that querying them with Amazon Athena was slow and costly for security use cases .This episode is a deep dive into the evolution of logging architecture, from SQL-based legacy tools to the modern "messy" data lake that embraces full-text search on unstructured data. We discuss the "data engineering lift" required to build your own, the promise (and limitations) of Amazon Security Lake, and how AI agents are starting to automate detection engineering and schema management.Guest Socials -⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Cliff's Linkedin Podcast Twitter - ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠@CloudSecPod⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠If you want to watch videos of this LIVE STREAMED episode and past episodes - Check out our other Cloud Security Social Channels:-⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Cloud Security Podcast- Youtube⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠- ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Cloud Security Newsletter ⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠If you are interested in AI Cybersecurity, you can check out our sister podcast -⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠ AI Security Podcast⁠Questions asked:(00:00) Introduction(02:25) Who is Cliff Crosford?(03:00) Why Teams Are Switching from SIEMs to Data Lakes(06:00) The "Black Hole" of S3 Logs: Cliff's First Failed Data Lake(07:30) The Engineering Lift: Do You Need a Data Engineer to Build a Lake?(11:00) Why Amazon Athena Failed for Security Investigations(14:20) The Danger of Dropping Logs to Save Costs(17:00) Misconceptions About Building Your Own Data Lake(19:00) The Evolution of Logging: From SQL to Full-Text Search(21:30) Is Amazon Security Lake the Answer?
