The Ockam Podcast

In this episode, the Ockam team dives into Authentication and Authorization. We look at what the difference is, and how "Auth" works in Ockam.

This episode is a deep dive into the protocols and cryptography underlying Ockam. The Team explains how end-to-end encrypted portals work, and how to set them up in only a few commands. While this episode goes into great detail about Ockam's technology, the magic of Ockam is that you don't need to know any of this to build secure-by-design apps with Ockam.

In this episode of the Ockam podcast, Matt, Mrinal, and Glenn explore some of the common fallacies in data security. The Team discusses why data that isn't private still needs guarantees of integrity and authenticity, and why encryption if often not as secure as you think it is.

Ockam is a new type of abstraction for the Cloud era. We call it Networkless. Ockam enables developers to connect applications securely, without touching the underlying network infrastructure.

There are various ways SaaS products integrate with their customers private systems: APIs, VPNs, Private Link, etc. However, SaaS companies end up with a "cookbook" of different integration methods depending on the customers' needs and architecture. The result: sales are blocked or delayed, customers have to punch holes in their network, and no one wins. Through this podcast we presume a Product Manager's point-of-view and then aim to show how Ockam might be the thing you've been looking for.

The right way to use VPNs, Reverse Proxies, and Ockam; Each may sort of sound the same on the glossy brochure you picked up at re:invent or at RSA Conf. However when we look at the virtual abstraction that each virtual architecture provides we get radically different architectures. At the end of this podcast you will know when to use, and how to pick between, a VPN, Reverse Proxy, Virtual Adjacency (Ockam) for your distributed cloud infrastructure.

Ockam's Matthew Gregory (CEO), Mrinal Wadhwa (CTO) and Glenn Gillen (Head of Product) share how their careers led them to Ockam, and what excites them about the product we're building.
