4.6 out of 5 stars from 140 ratings

    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not giving it five stars is that they should stop criticizing other technologies and products, like Splunk, based on outdated information.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.

EP268 Weaponizing the Administrative Fabric: Cloud Identity and SaaS Compromise in M Trends 2026
Q: What steps can help an organization move from a cycle of IT and security mistrust to real collaboration?
Executive sponsorship is critical to align goals, creating shared policies and interoperable controls, and instituting cross-team drills and incident retrospectives that emphasize collaboration and learning rather than blame.
EP268 Weaponizing the Administrative Fabric: Cloud Identity and SaaS Compromise in M Trends 2026
Q: What scalable advice do you have for teams worried about voice phishing, given the rise of AI voice cloning?
Treat voice calls as one more channel to verify identity, but strengthen processes: require verifiable, layered authentication, use policies that don't rely on one-time questions, and implement continuous monitoring of call contexts and anomaly detection that accounts for cloning risks.
EP267 AI SOC or AI in a SOC? Cutting Through Hype, Pricing Models, and SIEM Detection Efficacy with Raffy Marty
Q: Is AI SOC a solution that finally fixes detection engineering, or does it merely triage alerts without addressing underlying configuration and data quality issues?
AI SOC can help with triage and some aspects of detection engineering, but without solving data quality, configuration, and feed optimization, the improvements are partial; the goal should be integration of robust detection engineering with AI-driven insights across the data pipeline.
EP267 AI SOC or AI in a SOC? Cutting Through Hype, Pricing Models, and SIEM Detection Efficacy with Raffy Marty
Q: What does good SIEM pricing look like in a world where data volume and storage are decoupled from compute?
Pricing should reflect the actual cost drivers (data volume and storage) and offer flexibility such as bring-your-own-compute or storage options, while providing transparent tools to understand what data is needed for effective detections and when over-collection is unnecessary.
EP266 Resetting the SOC for Code War: Allie Mellen on Detecting State Actors vs. Doing the Basics
Q: How should smaller enterprises think about nation-state threats in their threat models?
Small and mid-sized firms should not ignore nation-state threats, but must balance resources with practical risk management, relying on suppliers and shared defense models, while maintaining essential practices like strong passwords and MFA, and engaging in regular geopolitical risk conversations.
