S10 E8: From Cisco Meraki and Splunk to Fixing Privilege Sprawl: Why Treating Identity as a Static One-Time Login Invites Cloud Catastrophe with Shashwat Sehgal, Co-Founder & CEO of P0 Security
Oct 28, 2024 · Season 10 · Episode 8 · 21 min
Creating the abstraction layer for cloud security
Shashwat Sehgal has been in the tech industry broadly for 15 years. He started out as an engineer, but eventually, worked his way towards product and the business side. Outside of tech, he enjoys spending time with his family. He's into sports, loves to play tennis, but admits he hasn't played pickle ball yet because the courts are always booked. He also enjoys reading, in particular historical narratives or autobiographies.
In his prior years, Shashwat noticed that developers spend a large amount of time securing business assets in the cloud. He dreamt of a world where this was just an abstraction layer on top of the cloud, making it easier for developers to complete the task.
This is the creation story of P0 Security.
