    Can you make AI sustainable?

    Can you make AI sustainable?

    In this episode we are looking at the challenges AI technology faces when it comes to becoming, and then remaining sustainable.
    The benefits of AI are unquestionable: from improved medical assistance and increased efficiency in the workplace, to autonomous transportation and next-level gaming experiences. But the more expansive the abilities of AI become, the more data storage that’s required.

    That data storage uses a lot of energy. In fact, it has been predicted that AI servers could be using more energy than a country the size of the Netherlands by 2030.

    For HPE Chief Technologist, Matt Armstrong-Barnes, the rate at which AI has grown in recent years has had an environmental impact, and he believes that’s down to people rushing into training large language models without thinking about longevity, or the need for future change. And that, in turn, has led to data being stored that is no longer needed.

    The sustainability issue is something that is also a main focus of Arti Garg, Lead Sustainability & Edge Architect in the office of the CTO at Hewlett Packard Enterprise. Like Matt, Arti has kept a keen eye on the exponential growth of AI data storage and the effect that is having on the environment, and agrees that the key to a more sustainable future is in how we train models.

    However, whilst training models well is important, the tech itself is a key component in more efficient AI. Shar Narasimhan is the director of product marketing for NVIDIA's data center GPU portfolio. He believes that a combination of openly available model optimisations and chipsets, CPUs, GPUs and intelligent data centers optimised for AI is a key piece of the puzzle in avoiding energy wastage, and making AI more sustainable all round.

    Cybersecurity Risks in The Critical Infrastructure Sectors - Ep 65

    Cybersecurity Risks in The Critical Infrastructure Sectors - Ep 65

    How do you stop cybersecurity issues in the critical infrastructure sectors?

     It has been inspired by a series of blog posts  that focus on
    Cyber security threats in healthcare and public health
    Risks and Cybersecurity in the energy sector
    Cyber security in financial services
    Cybersecuirty in critical manufacturing

    "Some of the threats are common among the different sectors. Certainly these  large scale kind of ransomware attacks is impacting healthcare. Bu it's also impacting the manufacturing sector. You know, 13% of all ransomware attacks last year were attributed to those in the manufacturing sector. Because if your production line’s down you're motivated to pay. And ransomware attackers know that."

    " I think the reality is we can no longer assume that we have a landscape where people will play nice.  For example what's going on between Ukraine and Russia, where cyber is being used as one of the elements of war. And if we are in a conflict in the future, our adversary is most likely going to be leveraging cyber and will look for weaknesses in our infrastructure.  We've got to change the priority and the voluntary approach doesn't seem to work. So whether it be through carrot or stick we need to  motivate each of these operators to raise their game. Because time's running out."

    CISO investment Priorities & State of Code Security - Ep 63

    CISO investment Priorities & State of Code Security - Ep 63

    Rob and Stan dissect the results of a couple of recent surveys to see if they really reflect the feelings of those at the coal face of cybersecurity.

    Rob talks about a round table he led that discussed a survey report OpenTech Cybersecurity have produced in conjunction with the Osterman Research group.

    The survey spoke to almost 300 CISOs and CIO across the globe to find out what their top cybersecurity investments are for this year

    Listen to find out what they are.

    Stan talks about a recent report called the 2023 State of Cloud Security.  The survey specifically interviewed AppSec professionals, to discover the main factors influencing tool adoption, as well as key implementation challenges..

    Stan points out that some of the key findings concerned DevSecOps, and  there was also concern about API security.

    AI and ChatGPT - Security, Privacy and Ethical Ramifications - Ep 62

    AI and ChatGPT - Security, Privacy and Ethical Ramifications - Ep 62

    This episode features “the expert in ChatGPT”, Stephan Jou. He is CTO of Security Analytics at OpenText Cybersecurity. 

    “The techniques that we are developing are becoming so sophisticated and scalable that it's really become the only viable method to detect increasingly sophisticated and subtle attacks when the data volumes and velocity are so huge. So think about nation state attacks where you have very advanced adversaries that are using uncommon tools that won't be on any sort of blacklist.”

    “In the past five years or so, I've become increasingly interested in the ethical and responsible application of AI. Pure AI is kind of like pure math. It's neutral. It doesn't have an angle to it, but applied AI is a different story. So all of a sudden you have to think about the implications of your AI product, the data that you're using, and whether your AI product can be weaponized or misled.” 


    “You call me the expert in ChatGPT. I sort of both love it and hate it. I love it because people like me are starting to get so much attention and I hate it because it's sort of highlighted some areas of potential risk associated with AI that people are only start now starting to realize.”

    “I'm very much looking forward to using technologies that can understand code and code patterns and how code gets assembled together and built into a product in a human-like way to be able to sort of detect software vulnerabilities. That's a fascinating area of development and research that's going on right now in our labs.”

    “[on AI poisoning] The good news is, this is very difficult to do in practice. A lot of the papers that we see on AI poisoning, they're much more theoretical than they are practical.”

    US National Cybersecurity Strategy and EU Cyber Resilience Act - Ep 61

    US National Cybersecurity Strategy and EU Cyber Resilience Act - Ep 61

    In this episode, Rob and Stan look at a couple of drives to impose law and order on cybersecurity.

    First the new US National Cybersecurity Strategy for the US.

    “I actually see this as being a pretty sharp break from the past. If it's fully implemented, I think the potential to change the US cybersecurity posture will significantly be improved for the better.”

    “The strategy does put an emphasis on holding software vendors more directly responsible for the security of their technologies. And it recognizes that if left to its own devices, the software market many times rewards vendors that under invest in security and get things out to market faster. It’s been proven time and time again that market pressures are not necessarily going to result in more secure products.”

    “This is going to take time. They're talking about a 10 year window here for the cybersecurity act….so the implementation of this through various administrations who may have different priorities is going to be interesting.”

    Rob and Stan also reflect on how the US strategy compares to the the EU Cyber Resilience Act, revealed in September 2022.

    “They actually are very focused on personal data and ensuring that there's the protection and confidentiality and integrity of the data of the individuals. There are vulnerability disclosures that are required from the manufacturers.”

    "If you are to improve compliance, you're not doing business in the EU. That's the one that really resonates, right? That's what's going to make people say  “Well, I have to if I want to be able to generate the type of business I require from the entire EU marketplace.”"

    Energy and Cybersecurity - Ep 60

    Energy and Cybersecurity - Ep 60

    "We got very good at testing things to failure"
    Virginia “Ginger” Wright is the Energy Cybersecurity Portfolio Manager for Idaho National Laboratory’s Cybercore division within its National and Homeland Security directorate. She leads programs focused on cybersecurity and resilience of critical infrastructure for the Department of Energy, DARPA [Defense Advanced Research Projects Agency] and other government agencies.

     Her recent research areas include cyber supply chain for operational technology components,  instant response, critical infrastructure modeling and simulation and nuclear cybersecurity.

    Some quotes from this episode:

    "Idaho National Laboratory is the only national laboratory that is focused on nuclear energy. Part of that legacy was in testing what are today normal commercial nuclear installations and understanding where the boundaries of either operational resilience were, or the boundaries of particular material and installation methods that would cause that infrastructure to fail. We have, of course, taken that ability to turn things into failure and use that to develop our own adversary guided thinking about defensive cybersecurity."

    "In the energy infrastructure, we have devices that are in regular use today that are decades old. In the IT world, I have Patch Tuesday where every week my critical infrastructure is updated. Then after about three years. I toss it and I get another one that is completely and wholly built on the more modern incarnation of technology.  When we think about operational technology, applications, energy or water, we certainly can't re-engineer those systems on that cycle of replacement. So often we may not be able to patch or the technology that we are using is so old that the vendor is now no longer supporting patches."

    "I think a lot of engineers understand materials that they build with. They understand wood,  concrete,  but they don't often get taught to think about digital systems in the same way they think about materials -  that these systems have stress points and failure points and they can be trusted to a certain level but after that we need to build protections into our system to protect us from the ways that they can fail or be brought to failure by an adversary"

    Get the week's news on Kubernetes, the cloud native landscape, and the wider world of tech. Co-hosts Eric Gregory and Nick Chase break through the jargon and help you make sense of it all.

    Our super special guest host, John Jainschigg, is back again! He & Eric dive into some new open source tooling for confidential Kubernetes & distroless container images, a host of security updates & phishing attacks, and a Python vulnerability that has been around for so long, it would be old enough to be legally employed in the United States. Join us for these stories and as always, so much more!

    A full list of topics for this week include:

    • Mirantis named leader in 2022 G2.com Grid Report
    • Constellation's "confidential K8s"
    • Wolfi, a Linux "undistro" for supply chain security
    • A 15-year-old Python vulnerability
    • Phishing GitHub accounts with fake CircleCI notifications
    • Fake sites fool Zoom users into downloading deadly code
    • Authentication provider, Okta, claims over 1/3 of login attempts are credential stuffing
    • Firefox vulnerabilities exposed - patch now!
    • Cambodian authorities crack down on "cyber slavery"
    • Floppy disks: still here, kind of, for now


    As mentioned by Eric, this (RCN #49) will be the final episode of Radio Cloud Native (in it's current format).

    Please keep the podcast in your feed and keep an eye out for fresh content. Sometime early in this new year, the team at Mirantis is planning to revamp Radio Cloud Native (possibly under a new name, but accessible from this same RSS feed).

    Thank you to all of our listeners that kept Radio Cloud Native going over the past two-or-so years. And a special thanks as well as good luck to long-time host Eric Gregory as he pursues future endeavors outside of Mirantis. Stay tuned for more podcasts from Mirantis in 2024!
