Cybersecurity Requirements of Cloud Computing with Brooke Motta
RAD Security CEO Brooke Motta dives into the unique cybersecurity requirements of cloud computing environments in the wake of the company picking up an additional $14 million in funding.
Brooke covers the broader industry trend toward platform-based security solutions and the ongoing debate between specialized tools versus integrated approaches. Motta also highlights how infrastructure security is evolving, especially with the rise of AI workloads, which introduce new risks and require fresh strategies for detection and response.
At the forefront is the challenge of keeping security aligned with the fast pace of software development. With AI-driven tools accelerating deployment cycles, security teams must find ways to maintain visibility and mitigate risks without slowing down innovation. The conversation also touches on compliance trends, with emerging regulations like ISO 42001 and the EU AI Act shaping how organizations approach AI security, even before mandates are in place.
Motta shares perspectives on the role of AI in both offense and defense—while attackers are using AI to scale threats, defenders are also leveraging automation and machine learning (ML) to improve risk assessment and response times. Brooke and Mike wrap up by shifting to common missteps in security, including the persistence of siloed teams and outdated approaches that struggle to keep up with modern infrastructure demands.
As AI and cloud adoption continue to transform security landscapes, the conversation underscores the importance of adaptability, proactive risk management, and tighter integration between security and development teams.
