I love this podcast and the chemistry between the two hosts. The only reason I’m not giving it five stars is that they should stop criticizing other technologies and products, like Splunk, based on outdated information. Thanks!

Talking Points

Recent interactions between the hosts and their guests.

EP290 Project Atlas: Wiz's AI Vulnerability Research

Q: What concrete differences do you see in AI thinking versus human researchers in vulnerability discovery?

AI tends to excel at processing large, structured problem spaces and can reveal vulnerabilities our human intuition might miss when not guided by rigorous evaluation. By removing over-reliance on recon at certain stages, the AI can explore broader problem spaces, while humans provide supervision, context, and validation to ensure exploitability and real-world impact.

EP290 Project Atlas: Wiz's AI Vulnerability Research

Q: Could you first tell us about your cloud hacking competition? Why did you start that? What did you discover? And then tell us how this turned into Project Atlas.

The competition began five years ago to incentivize researchers to target critical open-source backbone projects that cloud providers rely on, with a prize pool and a live-stage disclosure process. It revealed that AI-driven teams were increasingly finding high-impact vulnerabilities, catalyzing the formation of Project Atlas to evaluate and orchestrate multiple models across stages like understanding code, breaking down components, validating vulnerabilities, and producing exploit PoCs.

EP288 CISO Tested, Board Approved: Cloud Resilience with General Mills CISO Noah Korba

Q: Two, do you have a practical tip to help people get started with collaborative recovery?

Start with a clear wave-based prioritization, define your critical systems (especially manufacturing-related), and establish annual or periodic exercises that test recovery without disrupting production, while ensuring executives understand the timelines and what to expect from each recovery phase.

EP288 CISO Tested, Board Approved: Cloud Resilience with General Mills CISO Noah Korba

Q: One, do you have recommended reading for our audience?

Noah recommends problem-solving-centric fiction like The Martian and Project Hail Mary, as well as Seven Eaves by Neal Stephenson, to illustrate engineering mindset and methodical thinking in problem-solving contexts outside computing.

EP284 Closest Alligator to the Canoe: How Transforming SOC Became P0 for Lloyds Bank

Q: What comes after IAM modernization in the transformation roadmap?

The guest indicates a holistic modernization across the organization, balancing quick wins with strategic, large-scale changes, and prioritizing a sequence that addresses high-risk areas first while preparing for agentic AI integration.
