Live podcast digs into concrete tradeoffs: a secure-by-design white paper plus a public pledge that lands 300 companies pledged, the claim that memory-unsafe languages are a bad practice (rewrite in safer languages or accept risk), real incidents like Log4j and SSRF leading to years-long fixes such as IMDSv2 migration took years, tooling wins like React and Let's Encrypt, common exploit classes (SQLi, command injection, auth flaws), a surprising UX bug where 40% copied placeholder DNS and LLMs that currently hallucinate more than they threat-model.
