This is the show by and for DevSecOps practitioners who are trying to survive information overload, get through marketing nonsense, do right technology bets, help their organizations to deliver value and last but not the least to have some fun. Tune in for talks about technology, ways of working and news from DevSecOps.
We created this podcast because we realized that we were not the only ones to struggle with security on a daily basis. It is also difficult to find information without marketing content or a product pitch. We don’t intend to sell anything, now or later.
This show is not sponsored by any technology vendor and we are trying to be as unbiased as possible. We talk like no one is listening. For good or bad 😉.
As DevOps improved the collaboration between developers (dev) and operations (ops), DevSecOps includes security aspects into the development and operation of applications. It adds the dimension of security to a DevOps culture.
Enjoy the talks and feel free to participate.
What changed between episode 1 and episode 100, and what stayed surprisingly constant? The hosts revisit infrastructure as code, observability, incident response, secrets, compliance, and supply chain security through the lens of six years of conversations. It is part retrospective, part editorial reset for what the next 100 episodes should focus on.
Could AI handle the worst parts of incident response before you even join the call? Mattias and Paulina talk with Birol Yildiz about AI-written status updates, fast root cause analysis, and the path from read-only help to autonomous fixes. They also explore why post-mortems and documentation may be some of the best places to start.
Andrey shares the thinking behind Boris and the idea of going beyond AI SRE. The conversation covers the DevOps talent shortage, the coming squeeze on AI costs, why repeatable operational tasks are a strong fit for agents, and why customer data should stay in the customer’s own AWS account.
March 2026 made supply chain attacks feel a lot less theoretical, but what made these incidents different? The hosts discuss compromised publishing credentials, automatic execution hooks like post-install scripts and Python .pth files, and how both humans and security tools caught the malicious releases. They also talk through concrete ways to make developer environments harder to abuse.
This episode with Joachim Hill-Grannec asks: How do platforms bloat, and how do you keep them simple and fast with trunk-based dev and small batches? Which metrics prove it works—cycle time, uptime, or developer experience? Can security act as a partner that speeds delivery instead of a gate?
Is your Kubernetes stack bloated, slow, and hard to explain? Steve Wade shares simple checks—the hiring treadmill, onboarding time, and the acronym test—to spot platform theater fast. What would a 30-day deletion sprint cut, save, and secure?
We bring Paul Stack back to cover the parts we skipped last time. What changed when the models got better and we moved from one-shot Gen AI to agentic, human-in-the-loop work? How do plan mode and tight prompts stop AI from going rogue? Want to hear how six branches, git worktrees, and a TypeScript CLI came together?
Andrey and Mattias share a fast re:Invent roundup focused on AWS security. What do VPC Encryption Controls, post-quantum TLS, and org-level S3 block public access change for you? Which features should you switch on now, like ECR image signing, JWT checks at ALB, and air-gapped AWS Backup? Want simple wins you can use today?
What can you automate with SWAMP today, from AWS to a Proxmox home lab? How do skills, scripts, and reusable workflows plug into your stack? Could this be your agent’s missing guardrails?
We kick off with a CVSS 10 in n8n, then look at self-hosted AI assistants with weak defaults and prompt injection risks. Are your API keys, inbox, and drives safe if a bot is open to the web? What should you rotate, patch, and hide behind a VPN?
