As security alerts skyrocket and cloud infrastructure becomes the new normal, is the traditional Security Operations Center officially hitting its breaking point? In this live episode of the Security Boulevard Podcast recorded at Security Field Day, host Tom Hollingsworth is joined by analysts Jack Poller and Fernando Montenegro to dissect the massive shifts hitting SecOps. The panel dives into the implications of the Google/Wiz acquisition and Palo Alto Networks' Prisma Cloud moves, settling the debate on where cloud security truly belongs. They also engage in a heated discussion on the "Pets vs. Cattle" architecture in security, the rise of agentic AI, and whether automation can truly save analysts from burnout or if we’re just building a faster treadmill.This and more on Security Boulevard Podcast, part of The Futurum Group Podcast Network.
