Cloud Security Detection & Response Strategies That Actually Work


Listen Later

We spoke to Will Bengtson (VP of Security Operations at HashiCorp) bout the realities of cloud incident response and detection. From root credentials to event-based threats, this conversation dives deep into:

  • Why cloud security is NOT like on-prem – and how that affects incident response
  • How attackers exploit APIs in seconds (yes, seconds—not hours!)
  • The secret to building a cloud detection program that actually works
  • The biggest detection blind spots in AWS, Azure, and multi-cloud environments
  • What most SOC teams get WRONG about cloud security
