Segment 1: Fastly Interview

In this week's interview segment, we talk to Marshall Erwin about the state of cybersecurity, particularly when it comes to third party risk management, and whether we're ready for the next big SolarWinds or Crowdstrike incident. These big incidents have inspired executive orders, the Secure by Design initiative, and even a memo from JPMorgan Chase's CISO.

We will discuss where Marshall feels like we should be pushing harder, where we've made some progress, and what to do about incentives. How do you convince a software supplier or service provider to prioritize security over features?
