While we would like to think that security is baked in from the start by developers, this is not always the case. Furthermore, security engineers and developers are not always on the same page when it comes to security testing. Code Intelligence aims to tackle this problem with CI Spark, a tool that harnesses AI to help write test code. In this episode of TFiR: Let’s Talk, Sergej Dechand, CEO and Co-Founder of Code Intelligence, talks about the company and the problem they are trying to solve. He talks about the role of AI in security and how it is being used for fuzz testing. He talks about CI Spark and how it is analyzing code and automating fuzz tests and he takes us through some of the key trends he is seeing in the industry.

With the growing adoption of Kubernetes, many technologies, including Cloud Foundry, are evolving to embrace this tectonic shift in the industry. Cloud Foundry Foundation (CFF) has been going through a major transformation to embrace this change. However, this change doesn’t necessarily mean that Cloud Foundry is on its way out. On the contrary, like many major technologies, it will continue to serve a wide range of users and customers. What really matters is how Cloud Foundry leaders, including the foundation and companies sponsoring the project, look at this change; how committed they are to the users of this open source project. In this episode of TFiR Let’s Talk, Swapnil Bhartiya sits down with Catherine McGarvey, Vice President of Software Engineering at VMware and Chris Clark, Program Manager at the Cloud Foundry Foundation, to discuss the state of Cloud Foundry today and how it is evolving as the momentum continues towards Kubernetes. They also discuss VMware’s continued commitment to the project and McGarvey’s recent appointment to the Cloud Foundry’s governing board.

Salt Security recently released the findings of their latest API Security Report, Q3 2022, which the company conducts every six months in line with the shifting currents of the market. In this episode of Let’s Talk, Michelle McLean, VP of Marketing at Salt Security, joins me to deep dive into the report. When she looks back at previous reports, she finds that one thing remains consistent — “We are still seeing a fairly high percentage of folks getting impacted or having at least some form of API security incident in the past 12 months.” Over 94% of companies experienced security incidents in production APIs, even though nothing catastrophic happened to them, with over 20% of companies reporting some sort of data breach as a result of security gaps in APIs.
