Description

Guest: Karan Dwivedi, Security Engineering Manager, Enterprise Infrastructure Protection @ Google Cloud Topics: Google’s use of Google Cloud is a massive cloud environment with wildly diverse use cases. Could you share, for our listeners, a few examples of the different kinds of things we’re running in GCP? Given that we’re doing these wildly different things in GCP, how do we think about scaling the right security guardrails to the right places in our GCP org? How do you work with application engineering teams and project owner teams to make sure the right controls are there but not getting in the way of business?  How do we scale this exemption management process? Are there things we do here that don’t make sense at a smaller scale? Are there emergent challenges that only we would face? How do you correctly federate security responsibilities between the central team defining policy and the constituent user teams actually using the platform? Burnout is a perennial challenge for security teams–what’re you doing to keep your people happy and engaged?

Cloud Security Podcast by Google focuses on security in the cloud, delivering security from the cloud, and all things at the intersection of security and cloud. Of course, we will also cover what we are doing in Google Cloud to help keep our users' data safe and workloads secure. We’re going to do our best to avoid security theater, and cut to the heart of real security questions and issues. Expect us to question threat models and ask if something is done for the data subject’s benefit or just for organizational benefit. We hope you’ll join us if you’re interested in where technology overlaps with process and bumps up against organizational design. We’re hoping to attract listeners who are happy to hear conventional wisdom questioned, and who are curious about what lessons we can and can’t keep as the world moves from on-premises computing to cloud computing.
