  • Logging & Monitoring: The Quiet Pillars of Real Security
    Jul 4 2025

    If you’re not logging it, you’re not securing it.

    In this episode of Securely Speaking, we unpack why logging and monitoring are some of the most overlooked but most critical parts of any real security program.

    Whether you're chasing SOC 2, ISO 27001, or just trying to stay ahead of potential threats, weak visibility will always be your biggest blind spot.

    Lets discuss:

    1. What good logging actually looks like
    2. Common mistakes growing teams make
    3. What to do when logs are there but no one’s looking
    4. How to turn monitoring into a proactive security advantage


    If you're scaling a SaaS platform, handling sensitive data, or getting ready for audits , this is the episode you can’t afford to skip.

  • Vulnerability Management: Finding the Cracks Before They Break You
    Jun 27 2025

    In this episode of Securely Speaking, we dive into the reality behind vulnerability management, because finding issues is only half the battle. The real challenge is prioritizing, remediating, and communicating risk in fast-moving teams.

    We covered
    - Why vuln scans alone don’t cut it
    - How to actually prioritize what matters
    - The missing link between findings and action
    - What auditors (and attackers) really care about

    Whether you're chasing SOC 2, scaling your security stack, or just tired of noise from your vuln scans, this one’s for you.

    Security doesn’t start with control, it starts with visibility. Let’s make sure you can see (and fix) what matters most.

  • Is Your Change Management Just a Rubber Stamp?
    Jun 20 2025

    In this episode of Securely Speaking, we’re talking about change management—what it actually means for modern SaaS teams, and why security and compliance leaders can’t afford to treat it as an afterthought.

    Whether you're shipping fast, scaling hard, or managing growing tech debt, poor change control can lead to serious risks—from downtime to data exposure.

    We break down:
    - Why most change processes fail
    - The minimum viable controls every startup needs
    - How to align your dev, ops, and security teams without slowing them down

    This isn’t about red tape. It’s about protecting what you’re building—before your next deploy turns into your next incident.

    🎙️ Tune in, subscribe, and let’s make security make sense.
