In this episode, host João Tomé is joined by Kenton Varda, Principal Engineer at Cloudflare, for a wide-ranging conversation about AI, code, and the evolution of Internet development. Timestamps: Kenton shares how a real-world project shifted his view from AI skepticism to seeing the promise of AI-assisted coding, while emphasizing the need for strong human review, especially for security. The episode also goes into the architecture of Cloudflare Workers and its first months, Durable Objects, and the vision of the Internet as one programmable computer: “the network is the computer”.

Security isn’t a department. It’s a shared responsibility. To move from reactive to preventive, every product team needs embedded cyber expertise. Ange Ferrari, SVP and CISO at Metro AG, explains how decentralizing security enables scale and forces organizations to treat security as everyone's job, not just IT's. If you want to "shift left" for real, this episode is your playbook.

Tech leaders are racing to adopt today’s AI tools and envisioning ways to capitalize on tomorrow’s quantum computers. But cybercriminals are a few steps ahead. This month, theNET examines ways to make the most of AI agents while augmenting security with AI-enhanced solutions and safeguarding data with post-quantum cryptography.

The Perimeter Problem The traditional corporate perimeter, once a simple fortress, is no longer a reliable defense. With vulnerabilities changing rapidly in a world of cloud computing and remote work, relying on outdated security models is no longer a viable strategy. This massive shift demands a new approach centered on identity, leaving many organizations wondering how to adapt to the "perimeter problem".

Cyber risk doesn't equal physical risk. Here's why: On this episode of The Connectivity Cloud Podcast, Ange Ferrari explains how cyber risk becomes systemic instantly and why recovery is far harder to predict than rebuilding a physical store.

As organizations refactor applications and adopt AI and Large Language Models (LLMs) to power new applications and enhance existing services, a new class of security vulnerabilities has emerged. Traditional web application firewalls (WAFs) are only partially equipped to defend against threats unique to AI. In this video, we provide an overview of Cloudflare's Firewall for AI product, how it works, and how you can use it to protect AI models and safeguard user interactions with those models.
