Hot in Enterprise IT/VC - What's 🔥 in Enterprise IT/VC #338
I’ll be heading out later today for RSA Security in SF and 🔥 up to see what’s in store from customer, vendors, and investors for the rest of 2023. As far as what I’m looking at heading into the conference, let’s start with the most recent Goldman Sachs IT Spending Survey from April 16, 2023. You guessed it - “Security tops spending priorities again”
And within security, the cloud is on 🔥. Here’s another look at how the mix has changed but but the Cloud has jumped from #4 to number 1 in just a few quarters. When it comes to Emerging Security Vendors, it’s great to see portfolio cos Snyk and Security Scorecard prominent here. More thoughts here on what to expect at RSA 2023 from Silicon Angle with data to support. As for me, I’m 🔥 up to to dive into all things AI and security. This is one of biggest tailwinds we've seen in history and while many large enterprises are excited to leverage LLMs/GPT, they are also incredibly scared. Enterprises need to understand who is accessing data, create policies for how, manage authorizations, create basic classification to block, and in some cases leverage secure computing. We have a number of @Boldstartvc portfolio cos solving some of these problems including @capeprivacy, @ProtectAICorp, @bigidsecure, and @recolabs_ai. Here’s an example of how to use LLMs like GPT4 on confidential data from Cape Privacy, a portfolio co. Other ideas I keep thinking about is that while GPT and other models will scan code for vulnerabilities impacting revenue at some startups, on flip side, there will be more code than ever before and if these foundational models are trained on crappy code, this could be a massive shot in the arm for many SAST cos. In addition, now anyone who can write a prompt can sling code which means business users will have to have their code scanned as well - what tools will be available to protect that code from creating new security risks at enterprises. AI will also augment the security analyst helping find that needle in a haystack faster. As always, 🙏🏼 for reading and please share with you friends and colleagues. Scaling Startups
