This week on The Threat Show, we're joined by Guru Chahal, a seasoned investor, and founding member of multiple successful startups, currently a partner at Lightspeed Venture Partners, one of the leading venture capital firms in Silicon Valley. Early on in his career, he was Manager and then Director of product management at Nuova Systems, later acquired by Cisco. Then he made strategic investments in companies like Zscaler, Avere Systems, and Avi Networks, the latter of which he joined as a co-founder and helped grow to serve over 20% of Fortune 50 businesses. Guru joined Lightspeed after VMware acquired Avi Networks in 2019 where he uses his deep understanding of technology, product expertise, and extensive network to invest in Enterprise sectors such as security, DevOps, observability/ops tools, cloud infrastructure, and application development. We discuss how to approach cloud security as an SMB, the shared responsibility model, the autonomous SOC (security operations center), six trending threats, and more.
