Description

In this episode of the Leanpub Podcast, Sal Kimmich offers a deep technical look at the evolving security landscape across hardware, software, and open-source ecosystems. They discuss how modern attack surfaces emerge from increasingly interconnected systems, where chip-level vulnerabilities, firmware exploits, and opaque supply-chain dependencies create complex and often invisible risks.

Sal explains why digital isolation - both architectural and operational - is becoming essential as organizations confront challenges introduced by distributed development, shadow dependencies, and automated build pipelines
