Shadow AI security is the new frontline for enterprise security teams. Gil Geron, CEO and co-founder of Orca Security, returns to Techstrong TV. Furthermore, he joins Alan Shimel to explain what changes when every employee in the company is suddenly a builder shipping code with AI tools.
About Gil Geron
Gil leads Orca as CEO and co-founder. In addition, he is a long time cloud security leader. Consequently, he has watched shadow IT become shadow AI. Vibe coding tools now spread beyond engineering into marketing, operations and finance.
Inside shadow AI security
Cloud security once focused on developers who spin up AWS or GCP accounts. As a result, most controls assumed a small group of technical builders. Meanwhile, tools like Lovable, Replit, Bolt, Supabase and Snowflake turned analysts and operators into builders. Therefore, the new perimeter has to cover a much wider surface than before.
Gil also unpacks Orca’s new AI red team and code security auditor. In addition, Orca’s remediation agents open pull requests to fix issues before deployment. Consequently, teams offload repetitive scan and triage work. As a result, humans focus on real judgment calls that need context.
Why this matters now
Meanwhile, the SaaSpocalypse debate reshapes pricing. Furthermore, Gil argues that pricing should track cost and compute, not seats. Consequently, seat based licensing breaks when everyone is a builder. Shadow AI security has to keep up with that shift across every public cloud.

In addition, Gil shares where AI native app building will and will not replace traditional software categories like databases and hosting. He also explains why reinventing the wheel with a Claude subscription rarely pays off once maintenance, scale and long term security land squarely on the internal team that shipped the prototype in the first place.
