Five Eyes warns that AI is shrinking the cyber clock. Learn why secure by design must start before cloud deployment and extend to the AI agents inside your environment.

Executive Insight: What I Tell Every AI Startup That Asks Me About Security & Audit Readiness

A recent attack against Microsoft Entra ID demonstrated how incomplete Conditional Access coverage allowed Azure CLI sign-ins to bypass expected MFA protections.

Artificial intelligence is extending just changing how software is built to changing how cyber conflict, critical infrastructure, and enterprise risk are being discussed at the highest levels. A recent article in The Independent by Anthony Cuthberson (which has since been syndicated across major publications including Yahoo, AOL, and MSN, proving the urgency of this topic), examines what an AI-driven cyber conflict could look like as increasingly capable AI systems begin d

Self-service deployments help DevOps teams eliminate deployment bottlenecks by embedding security, governance, compliance, and automated controls into every deployment.

As AI systems move from experimentation into production, the way infrastructure is deployed and governed is fundamentally changing. Traditional cloud security models were built around human-operated environments where infrastructure changes happened relatively slowly and predictably. Agentic AI changes that dynamic entirely.

Imagine a world where cybersecurity isn’t a bottleneck, but your secret weapon for rapid, secure innovation. Yogita, CEO of Invigrid, drops truth bombs that could reshape how your organization builds and protects in the AI era. Are silos, slow security checks, and misconfigurations holding you back? It’s time to think first principles and revolutionize your process before AI makes the gap even wider. Yogita reveals how the old paradigms of security are failing in a hyper-s

#InternationalWomensDay interview with Yogita Parulekar, CEO & Founder of Invi Grid Inc., explores how AI and multi-cloud scale quietly erode ownership and governance. “Security is not a product, but a process.” AI agents operate with their own identities. Governance must move in real time. #LeadHerInSecurity #WomenInCybersecurity #Cloud #AIGovernance #DevSecOps

Generative AI, as we see it today, is like a junior, overconfident consultant who is eager to please and sounds convincing even when the information isn’t fully correct. An AI Agent, who takes this to the next level, is like this new employee who may end up taking actions on your behalf based on the consultant’s advice. Overzealous actions of untrained or unsupervised new AI Agent with access to sensitive systems can cause harm to the company.

For years, Heroku simplified infrastructure. Push code. Deploy instantly. Scale without worrying about servers, networking, or runtime management. It lowered the barrier to shipping software. It helped define how a generation of developers learned to build. “Git push to deploy” changed how products launched and how engineering teams operated. That model worked for a long time. But the environment around it has changed drastically and exponentially.

Agentic AI is advancing at breakneck speed, with daily breakthroughs reshaping what’s possible. One recent one being Clawdbot, or OpenClaw. Clawdbot is like a guest who might overstay their welcome. You can invite it even if you know it, but it might not always do what you expect. That said, Clawdbot is an AI that basically controls your whole system and can perform operations such as reading your inbox, sending emails, checking in for your flights, sending text messages, and

2025 will be remembered as the year security failures stopped being “incidents” and started becoming board-level crises. Industries, large enterprises, and fast-scaling companies alike suffered breaches that resulted in billions of dollars in direct losses, reputational damage, market-value destruction, regulatory fines, and weeks of operational paralysis. This exposed how fragile modern cloud and AI infrastructure really is when governance does not keep pace with automati

Security leaders are moving as fast as their budgets and practical organizational considerations allow them to embrace security principles like “secure-by-design”, “zero trust,” and “defense in depth” to strengthen cybersecurity and resilience. Yogesh Badwe, CSO at Druva

Enterprise cloud infrastructure security doesn’t happen casually. It’s only achieved as a deliberate, engineered outcome. As Gopal Padinjaruveetil — VP & CISO of the Auto Club Group of a 122-year-old American Automobile Association (AAA) — says, it’s “secure by design, not by chance.”

The CIO role is no longer confined to managing infrastructure or keeping the lights on. If you’re still defining your job that way, you’re behind. Today’s CIOs are expected to operate as business strategists, risk mitigators, and above all, innovation enablers. From my own conversations with seasoned executives like Becky Wanta, a Global F50+ CIO and CTO with leadership experience at MGM Resorts International, Best Buy, PepsiCo and Wells Fargo, to name a few, one thing is cle

Speaking with Manuel Ramos of the SupplyCast: Voices in the Chain podcast in Lima, Peru, where there are now a growing number of startups and new businesses, many entrepreneurs think that innovation and artificial intelligence are something distant, almost unattainable. But as Yogita points out: “It's not at all unattainable. Today, there are countless open-source models to learn, cloud credits to experiment with, and free online courses. The key is to take the initiative.”

In a recent panel Beyond Ransomeware: Safeguarding Identity, Cloud and Data, organized by our Partner Cowbell Insurance, Founder & CEO, Yogita Parulekar explains "Cloud is an engine for your innovations. But only when configured securely from the beginning, well architected and cost optimized. Here are some specific recommendations to start with:

Keynote on August 21, 2025 by our Founder & CEO "Accelerating Innovation and AI through Strong Governance and Cybersecurity"

Security teams know very well that cloud technologies are fundamentally different. The traditional perimeter has disappeared. Any service, if misconfigured or compromised, can end up publicly exposed and discovered by automated bots scanning the internet.
