Episode notes
INSIGHT

Cloud Security As An End-to-End Workflow

  • Cloud security must be treated as an end-to-end workflow across dev, deployment, production, and policy feedback loops.
  • Securing the cloud requires integrating development, runtime, and preventative policy changes, not just point solutions.
ADVICE

Leverage AI To Upskill Engineers

  • Use AI to lower the expertise barrier and accelerate junior engineers into effective security practitioners.
  • Let AI assistants answer questions privately so teams gain knowledge without long enablement cycles.
INSIGHT

SecOps Can't Be The Only Line

  • SecOps are inherently reactive and cannot be the sole defenders of cloud environments.
  • Teams must shift left so SecOps handle critical real‑time incidents while earlier stages prevent issues.
