Still Cyber, After All These Years
4 Episodes
They were there at the beginning. And they never really left.
Mitch Ashley and Alan Shimel have been talking cybersecurity since 2004—back when the podcast was called StillSecure and the threats were simpler, the stakes smaller, and the industry just finding its footing. As co-founders of StillSecure, they helped shape early conversations around infosec long before it became boardroom-level business.
Now, after two decades covering cybersecurity, DevOps, AI, and the ever-shifting tech landscape, they’re going back to their roots.
Still Cyber, After All These Years is a sharp, witty, no-nonsense look at today’s cyber world—through the eyes of two veterans who’ve seen every hype cycle, breach headline, and “next big thing.” Joined by longtime friends and trusted voices from across the cyber community, Mitch and Alan cut through the noise with perspective, humor, and a little well-earned skepticism.
Think: hard truths, real talk, and yes—occasional grumbling from the cheap seats. Because some things only get clearer with time.
