×Guest: Svetla Yankova , Founder and CEO, Citreno Topics: Why do so many organizations still collect logs yet don’t detect threats? In other words, why is our industry spending more money than ever on SIEM tooling and still not “winning” against Tier 1 ... or even Tier 5 adversaries? What are the hardest parts about getting the right context into a SOC analyst’s face when they’re triaging and investigating an alert? Is it integration? SOAR playbook development? Data enrichment? All of the above? What are the organizational problems that keep organizations from getting the full benefit of the security operations tools they’re buying? Top SIEM mistakes? Is it trying to migrate too fast? Is it accepting a too slow migration? In other words, where are expectations tyrannical for customers? Have they changed much since 2015? Do you expect people to write their own detections? Detecting engineering seems popular with elite clients and nobody else, what can we do? Do you think AI will change how we SOC (Tim: “SOC” is not a verb?) in the next 1- 3 -5 years? Do you think that AI SOC tech is repeating the mistakes SOAR vendors made 10 years ago?

Guest: Sarah Aoun , Privacy Engineer, Google Topic: You have had a fascinating career since we [Tim] graduated from college together – you mentioned before we met that you’ve consulted with a literal world leader on his personal digital security footprint. Maybe tell us how you got into this field of helping organizations treat sensitive information securely and how that led to helping keep targeted individuals secure? You also work as a privacy engineer on Fuschia , Google’s new operating system kernel. How did you go from human rights and privacy to that? What are the key privacy considerations when designing an operating system for “ambient computing”? How do you design privacy into something like that? More importantly, not only “how do you do it”, but how do you convince people that you did do it? When we talk about "higher risk" individuals, the definition can be broad. How can an average person or someone working in a seemingly less sensitive role better assess if they might be a higher-risk target? What are the subtle indicators? Thinking about the advice you give for personal security beyond passwords and multi-factor auth, how much of effective personal digital hygiene comes down to behavioral changes versus purely technical solutions? Given your deep understanding of both individual security needs and large-scale OS design, what's one thing you wish developers building cloud services or applications would fundamentally prioritize about user privacy?

Guest: David French , Staff Adoption Engineer, Google Cloud Topic: Detection as code is one of those meme phrases I hear a lot, but I’m not sure everyone means the same thing when they say it. Could you tell us what you mean by it, and what upside it has for organizations in your model of it? What gets better for security teams and security outcomes when you start managing in a DAC world? What is primary, actual code or using SWE-style process for detection work? Not every SIEM has a good set of APIs for this, right? What’s a team to do in a world of no or low API support for this model? If we’re talking about as-code models, one of the important parts of regular software development is testing. How should teams think about testing their detection corpus? Where do we even start? Smoke tests? Unit tests? You talk about a rule schema–you might also think of it in code terms as a standard interface on the detection objects–how should organizations think about standardizing this, and why should they? If we’re into a world of detection rules as code and detections as code, can we also think about alert handling via code? This is like SOAR but with more of a software engineering approach, right? One more thing that stood out to me in your presentation was the call for sharing detection content. Is this between vendors, vendors and end users? Resources: Can We Have “Detection as Code”?

1 EP228 SIEM in 2025: Still Hard? Reimagining Detection at Cloud Scale and with More Pipelines 27:09
Guest Alan Braithwaite , Co-founder and CTO @ RunReveal Topics: SIEM is hard, and many vendors have discovered this over the years. You need to get storage, security and integration complexity just right. You also need to be better than incumbents. How would you approach this now? Decoupled SIEM vs SIEM/EDR/XDR combo. These point in the opposite directions, which side do you think will win? In a world where data volumes are exploding, especially in cloud environments, you're building a SIEM with ClickHouse as its backend, focusing on both parsed and raw logs. What's the core advantage of this approach, and how does it address the limitations of traditional SIEMs in handling scale? Cribl, Bindplane and “security pipeline vendors” are all the rage. Won’t it be logical to just include this into a modern SIEM? You're envisioning a 'Pipeline QL' that compiles to SQL , enabling 'detection in SQL.' This sounds like a significant shift, and perhaps not to the better? (Anton is horrified, for once) How does this approach affect detection engineering? With Sigma HQ support out-of-the-box, and the ability to convert SPL to Sigma, you're clearly aiming for interoperability. How crucial is this approach in your vision, and how do you see it benefiting the security community? What is SIEM in 2025 and beyond? What’s the endgame for security telemetry data? Is this truly SIEM 3.0, 4.0 or whatever-oh?

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?

Guests: no guests, just us in the studio Topics: At RSA 2025, did we see solid, measurably better outcomes from AI use in security, or mostly just "sizzle" and good ideas with potential? Are the promises of an "AI SOC" repeating the mistakes seen with SOAR in previous years regarding fully automated security operations? Does "AI SOC" work according to RSA floor? How realistic is the vision expressed by some [yes, really!] that AI progress could lead to technical teams, including IT and security, shrinking dramatically or even to zero in a few years? Why do companies continue to rely on decades-old or “non-leading” security technologies, and what role does the concept of a "organizational change budget" play in this inertia?

Guests: Kirstie Failey @ Google Threat Intelligence Group Scott Runnels @ Mandiant Incident Response Topics: What is the hardest thing about turning distinct incident reports into a fun to read and useful report like M-Trends ? How much are the lessons and recommendations skewed by the fact that they are all “post-IR” stories? Are “IR-derived” security lessons the best way to improve security? Isn’t this a bit like learning how to build safely from fires vs learning safety engineering? The report implies that F500 companies suffer from certain security issues despite their resources, does this automatically mean that smaller companies suffer from the same but more? "Dwell time" metrics sound obvious, but is there magic behind how this is done? Sometimes “dwell tie going down” is not automatically the defender’s win, right? What is the expected minimum dwell time? If “it depends”, then what does it depend on? Impactful outliers vs general trends (“by the numbers”), what teaches us more about security?

Beyond the usual Vegas chaos, what was the overarching security theme or vibe you [Tim] felt dominated the conference this year? Thinking back to Next '24, what felt genuinely different this year versus just the next iteration of last year's trends? Last year, we pondered the 'Cloud Island' vs. 'Cloud Peninsula'. Based on Next 2025, is cloud security becoming more integrated with general cyber security, or is it still its own distinct domain? What wider trends did you observe, perhaps from the expo floor buzz or partner announcements, that security folks should be aware of? What was the biggest surprise for you at Next 2025?

Guest: Steve Ledzian , APAC CTO, Mandiant at Google Cloud Topics: We've seen a shift in how boards engage with cybersecurity. From your perspective, what's the most significant misconception boards still hold about cyber risk, particularly in the Asia Pacific region, and how has that impacted their decision-making? Cybersecurity is rife with jargon. If you could eliminate or redefine one overused term, which would it be and why? How does this overloaded language specifically hinder effective communication and action in the region? The Mandiant Attack Lifecycle is a well-known model. How has your experience in the East Asia region challenged or refined this model? Are there unique attack patterns or actor behaviors that necessitate adjustments? Two years post-acquisition, what's been the most surprising or unexpected benefit of the Google-Mandiant combination? M-Trends data provides valuable insights, particularly regarding dwell time. Considering the Asia Pacific region, what are the most significant factors reducing dwell time, and how do these trends differ from global averages? Given your expertise in Asia Pacific, can you share an observation about a threat actor's behavior that is often overlooked in broader cybersecurity discussions?

Guest: Henrique Teixeira , Senior VP of Strategy, Saviynt, ex-Gartner analyst Topics: How have you seen IAM evolve over the years, especially with the shift to the cloud, and now AI? What are some of the biggest challenges and opportunities these two shifts present? ITDR (Identity Threat Detection and Response) and ISPM (Identity Security Posture Management) are emerging areas in IAM. How do you see these fitting into the overall IAM landscape? Are they truly distinct categories or just extensions of existing IAM practices? Shouldn’t ITDR just be part of your Cloud DR or maybe even your SecOps tool of choice? It seems goofy to try to stand ITDR on its own when the impact of an identity compromise is entirely a function of what that identity can access or do, no? Regarding workload vs. human identity, could you elaborate on the unique security considerations for each? How does the rise of machine identities and APIs impact IAM approaches?

It seems technically impossible to do, how do you do this? Google is not alone in being a global company with local customers and local requirements. How are we building systems that provide local compliance with global consistency in their use for customers who are similar in scale to us? Originally, Google had global systems synchronized around the entire planet–planet scale supercompute–with atomic clocks. How did we get to regionalized approach from there? Engineering takes a long time. How do we bring enough agility to product definition and engineering design to give our users robust foundations in our systems that also let us keep up with changing and diverging regulatory goals? What are some of the biggest challenges you face working in the trusted cloud space? Is there something you would like to share about being a woman leader in technology? How did you overcome the related challenges? Resources: Video “Compliance Without Compromise” by Jeanette Manfra (2020, still very relevant!) “Good to Great” book “Appreciative Leadership” book…

Guest: Yigael Berger , Head of AI, Sweet Security Topic: Where do you see a gap between the “promise” of LLMs for security and how they are actually used in the field to solve customer pains? I know you use LLMs for anomaly detection. Explain how that “trick” works? What is it good for? How effective do you think it will be? Can you compare this to other anomaly detection methods? Also, won’t this be costly - how do you manage to keep inference costs under control at scale? SOC teams often grapple with the tradeoff between “seeing everything” so that they never miss any attack, and handling too much noise. What are you seeing emerge in cloud D&R to address this challenge? We hear from folks who developed an automated approach to handle a reviews queue previously handled by people. Inevitably even if precision and recall can be shown to be superior, executive or customer backlash comes hard with a false negative (or a flood of false positives). Have you seen this phenomenon, and if so, what have you learned about handling it? What are other barriers that need to be overcome so that LLMs can push the envelope further for improving security? So from your perspective, LLMs are going to tip the scale in whose favor - cybercriminals or defenders?

Guest: Dave Hannigan , CISO at Nu Bank Topics: Tell us about the challenges you're facing as CISO at NuBank and how are they different from your past life at Spotify? You're a big cloud based operation - what are the key challenges you're tracking in your cloud environments? What lessons do you wish you knew back in your previous CISO run [at Spotify]? What metrics do your team report for you to understand the security posture of your cloud environments? How do you know “your” cloud use is as secure as you want it to be? You're a former Googler, and I'm sure that's not why, so why did you choose to go with Google SecOps for your organization?

Guest: Kimberly Goody , Head of Intel Analysis and Production, Google Cloud Topics: Google's Threat Intelligence Group (GTIG) has a unique position, accessing both underground forum data and incident response information. How does this dual perspective enhance your ability to identify and attribute cybercriminal campaigns? Attributing cyberattacks with high confidence is important. Can you walk us through the process GTIG uses to connect an incident to specific threat actors, given the complexities of the threat landscape and the challenges of linking tools and actors? There is a difficulty of correlating publicly known tool names with the aliases used by threat actors in underground forums. How does GTIG overcome this challenge to track the evolution and usage of malware and other tools? Can you give a specific example of how this "decoding" process works? How does GTIG collaborate with other teams within Google, such as incident response or product security, to share threat intelligence and improve Google's overall security posture? How does this work make Google more secure? What does Google (and specifically GTIG) do differently than other organizations focused on collecting and analyzing threat-intelligence?

Guest: Or Brokman , Strategic Google Cloud Engineer, Security and Compliance, Google Cloud Topics: Can you tell us about one particular cloud consulting engagement that really sticks out in your memory? Maybe a time when you lifted the hood, so to speak, and were absolutely floored by what you found – good or bad! In your experience, what's that one thing – that common mistake – that just keeps popping up? That thing that makes you say 'Oh no, not this again!' 'Tools over process' mistake is one of the 'oldies.' What do you still think drives people to it, and how to fix it? If you could give just one piece of cloud security advice to every company out there, regardless of their size or industry, what would it be?

Guests: Beth Cartier , former CISO, vCISO, founder of Initiative Security Guest host of the CISO mini-series: Marina Kaganovich , Executive Trust Lead, Office of the CISO @ Google Cloud Topics: How is that vCISO’ing going? What is special about vCISO and cloud? Is it easier or harder? AI, cyber, resilience - all are hot topics these days. In the context of cloud security, how are you seeing organizations realistically address these trends? Are they being managed effectively (finally?) or is security always playing catch up? Recent events reminded us that cybersecurity may sometimes interfere with resilience. How have you looked to build resilience into your security program? The topic is perhaps 30+ years old, but security needs to have a seat at the table, and often still doesn’t - why do you think this is the case? What approaches or tips have you found to work well in elevating security within organizations? Any tips for how cyber professionals can stay up to date to keep up with the current threat landscape vs the threats that are around the corner?

1 EP208 The Modern CISO: Balancing Risk, Innovation, and Business Strategy (And Where is Cloud?) 31:19
Guest host: Marina Kaganovich , Executive Trust Lead, Office of the CISO @ Google Cloud Guest: John Rogers , CISO @ MSCI Topics: Can you briefly walk us through your CISO career path? What are some of the key (cloud or otherwise) trends that CISOs should be keeping an eye on? What is the time frame for them? What are the biggest cloud security challenges CISOs are facing today, and how are those evolving? Given the rapid change of pace in emerging tech, such as what we’ve seen in the last year or so with gen AI, how do you balance the need to address short-term or imminent issues vs those that are long-term or emergent risks? What advice do you have for how CISOs can communicate the importance of anticipating threats to their boards and executives? So, how to be a forward looking and strategic yet not veer into dreaming, paranoia and imaginary risks? How to be futuristic yet realistic? The CISO role as an official title is a relatively new one, what steps have you taken to build credibility and position yourself for having a seat at the table?

Guest: Bob Blakley , Co-founder and Chief Product Officer of Mimic Topics: Tell us about the ransomware problem - isn't this a bit of old news? Circa 2015, right? What makes ransomware a unique security problem? What's different about ransomware versus other kinds of malware? What do you make of the “RansomOps” take (aka “ransomware is not malware”)? Are there new ways to solve it? Is this really a problem that a startup is positioned to solve? Aren’t large infrastructure owners better positioned for this? In fact, why haven't existing solutions solved this? Is this really a symptom of a bigger problem? What is that problem? What made you personally want to get into this space, other than the potential upside of solving the problem?

Guest: Allan Liska , CSIRT at Recorded Future, now part of Mastercard Topics: Ransomware has become a pervasive threat. Could you provide us with a brief overview of the current ransomware landscape? It's often said that ransomware is driven by pure profit. Can you remind us of the business model of ransomware gangs, including how they operate, their organizational structures, and their financial motivations? Ransomware gangs are becoming increasingly aggressive in their extortion tactics. Can you shed some light on these new tactics, such as data leaks, DDoS attacks, and threats to contact victims' customers or partners? What specific challenges and considerations arise when dealing with ransomware in cloud environments, and how can organizations adapt their security strategies to mitigate these risks? What are the key factors to consider when deciding whether or not to pay the ransom? What is the single most important piece of advice you would give to organizations looking to bolster their defenses against ransomware?

Guest: Andrew Kopcienski , Principal Intelligence Analyst, Google Threat Intelligence Group Questions: You have this new Cybersecurity Forecast 2025 report , what’s up with that? We are getting a bit annoyed about the fear-mongering on “oh, but attackers will use AI.” You are a threat analyst, realistically, how afraid are you of this? The report discusses the threat of compromised identities in hybrid environments (aka “no matter what you do, and where, you are hacked via AD”). What steps can organizations take to mitigate the risk of a single compromised identity leading to a significant security breach? Is this expected to continue? Is zero-day actually growing? The report seems to imply that, but aren’t “oh-days” getting more expensive every day? Many organizations still lag with detection, in your expertise, what approaches to detection actually work today? It is OK to say ”hire Managed Defense ”, BTW :-) We read the risk posed by the "Big Four" sections and they (to us) read like “hackers hack” and “APTs APT.” What is genuinely new and interesting here?
