Episode #50 - Building a Data Security Foundation with Bedrock Security
In this episode of the Incubator podcast, co-hosts Satbir Sran and Darren Boyd sit down with Bruno Kurtic, the CEO and co-founder of Bedrock Security, to discuss his journey in enterprise software. Bruno shares his experience building Sumo Logic, a cloud-native log analytics platform that went public, and how those lessons drive innovations at Bedrock Security.
Bruno explains that the core of Bedrock Security’s approach is a "metadata lake," which builds a comprehensive data inventory from creation to consumption. This helps organizations discover, classify, and manage data effectively—the foundational step before any security can be implemented. He discusses how Bedrock’s platform leverages generative AI for accurate, scalable, and real-time data analysis, setting it apart from traditional solutions.
The conversation touches on the intersection of data security and AI, advising CXOs and security leaders to focus on data discovery first to create a strong foundation. Bruno emphasizes that when organizations understand their data, they unlock opportunities for smarter security, better compliance, and even cost savings. Bedrock’s focus on data classification, access control, and proactive security measures positions it as a critical tool in managing enterprise data security. The episode concludes with Bruno highlighting new use cases in AI and evolving customer needs.
This discussion is essential for understanding the future of data-centric security and how to approach it strategically within any organization.
