Techstrong Gang

44m
Industrial software expansion and the rising volume of security reports lead this Techstrong Gang discussion. Mike Vizard, Kate Scarcella, Sid Nag and Chris Blask examine Schneider Electric's proposed PTC deal, GitHub's private vulnerability-report limits and the practical controls organizations need for AI agents.
The panel connects Apple's macOS permission plans with governance approaches from AWS, Kong, CData and Cribl. California's OpenAI subpoena is discussed as an ongoing inquiry, without treating allegations or announced safeguards as established outcomes.
