**Topic 1 - **Welcome to the show. Tell us a little bit about your background, you have a very interesting journey starting in cybersecurity for the Isreal Defense Force all the way to CEO of a newly funded startup. 

**Topic 2 - **The rise of CI/CD created some great benefits to software development, it also created some security challenges. Let’s start there, why do developers seem to have so many challenges with security, especially in production?

**Topic 3 - **Increasingly we hear about the concept of DevSecOps, you introduced the term “Shifting Left”. What does that mean and how does this relate to the larger concept of DevSecOps?

**Topic 4 - **When a developer pushes code, where is the friction from a security perspective? How does Solvo solve this problem as code is pushed and how do you integrate with the cloud providers to make sure a least-privilege model is used? You recently released a security tool for health checks of your cloud accounts? (link in the show notes)

**Topic 5 - **We recently raised your first round of funding completely remotely. Tell us about the experience and challenges you faced. 

**Topic 6 - **You are passionate about empowering women and under-represented communities in our industry. Tell us about your ongoing partnerships with SheCodes, Cyber Ladies and other mentoring programs you are involved with.
