Wiz is a cloud security platform designed to help organizations detect and address risks within their cloud environments. It examines various layers of the cloud stack, such as virtual machines, containers, and serverless configurations, to identify vulnerabilities and misconfigurations in context.
The Model Context Protocol (MCP) is emerging as a new standard for linking LLM applications to external data sources and tools. With support from industry leaders like OpenAI, Microsoft, and Google, it is quickly gaining momentum. Although MCP offers significant potential, it also poses specific security challenges.
Rami McCarthy, a Principal Security Researcher at Wiz, participates in a podcast with Gregor Vand to discuss topics such as security research, AI and secrets leakage, MCP security, supply chain attacks, and career guidance.
