À PROPOS DE CET ÉPISODE
Chainguard founder and CEO Dan Lorenc is building the security layer the entire software industry should run on. After nearly a decade at Google working on open source infrastructure, Dan co-founded Chainguard in 2021 to solve a problem hiding in plain sight. 90 to 95 percent of the code powering the world's software is open source, free, and largely unsecured. Now leading a $3.5B+ company with more than 600 customers, Dan shares his unfiltered take on where software security, AI, and the future of engineering are all headed.
What You'll Learn:
- How Chainguard is securing the open source software the world runs on
- Why the AI coding boom is making software security harder, not easier
- What the future of software engineering actually looks like
- Why CISOs can't afford to say no to AI, even when it scares them
- Whether we've already hit AGI in the software space
- How to think about your own digital security right now
