What's Inside Right Now
"Our cloud bill exploded the second we turned on AI features. You too?"
The reality is most IT teams are being challenged to keep costs down and run AI. What's the reality of how you do this at scale without seeing massive cloud costs? We're talking about this and more at upcoming events. Check them out now.
Are we actually dealing with Shadow AI or just saying we are?
Employees are just... using ChatGPT, Claude, Copilot, etc. - often with company data — without telling anyone. We're swapping stories live at industry events and virtually to see how folks are handling this across industries.
Every Vendor seems to be "Powered by AI" now but who is actually doing it well?
How many vendor calls have you sat through and played "AI Bingo"? Too many to count, right? Let's talk about who is actually using AI well and who can prove it.

We used to worry about people logging in without permission. Now I've got a hundred machine identities for every human one. Service accounts, agents, secrets scattered across orchestration files — and half of them have more access than they should.
— Steve, Staff Engineer
My security team sees the infrastructure — they say it's locked up tight. My data scientists see the models — they don't know what a supply chain attack looks like. Neither team sees the full picture. That's exactly how you get exploited.
We deployed AI across the org faster than any tool in my career. Governance? We're still figuring that out. Only 7% of companies actually govern their AI deployments well. That statistic should terrify people. If that doesn't scare you - it should.
— Kevin, Security Technician
