Veteran cybersecurity professional and our U.S.-based host Jeremy Snyder sits in the guest seat this week to talk about his new startup, FireTail.io, a company that offers simple yet effective API security. In this episode, we explore a topic that we have not featured before in the previous 40+ episodes -- API Security and its relation to cloud security.

Fabrice A. Marie, former CISO of Lazada and Air Asia, joins our host Raphaël Peyret this week on the Ask A CISO podcast to talk about his experiences and how the version of Linux from his new startup can help organizations with cybersecurity.

It seems like the adversaries have all the advantages stacked in their favor. They can attack any time, and only need to get lucky once to breach our cloud investments. On the other hand, we have to ensure that our cloud infrastructure is always secure. So what can we do about this complicated problem? We speak with Philippe Humeau of CrowdSec to understand how we can leverage our numbers as a countermeasure. Along the way, we also discuss social engineering, and what we can do to avoid falling victim to phishing attacks.

Horangi identified excessive access and control permissions as a key cybersecurity risk amid the region’s move to cloud. Left unaddressed, this could raise the likelihood of compromised credentials, enabling threat actors to access the organisation’s network and set the stage for a ransomware attack.

On this episode of Ask A CISO, Raphaël Peyret, Horangi's VP of Product, took the opportunity to ask Jeremy Snyder, a veteran cloud security practitioner, about the evolution of cloud security - how it became what we have today from its early, simpler days. Jeremy also gives us a glimpse of where cloud security is heading and three practical tips on how you can get started on your cloud security journey.

Besides more comprehensive support and an important new feature, the new Warden release includes a brand new dashboard and more UI fixes.
