The campus and branch network hasn't fundamentally changed since the 1990s. Shashi Kiran thinks that's the biggest liability sitting inside enterprise IT.

In this episode of Built for Trust, Nick Lippis sits down with Shashi Kiran, CMO of Nile, to discuss why the network needs a clean slate approach and what a zero trust by default architecture looks like.

They explore why complexity, not cost, is the real driver behind ballooning IT budgets, how Nile embeds security directly into the network fabric instead of bolting it on device by device, and why the shift from CapEx to OpEx is forcing enterprises to rethink how they buy, operate, and manage network infrastructure.

Shashi also shares what this summer's wave of AI-driven vulnerability discovery, known across the industry as the "Summer of Mythos," could mean for enterprise network refresh cycles and why he believes agentic AI is transforming the network from a connectivity layer into a strategic control point.

The next era of enterprise infrastructure won't be defined by AI alone. It will be defined by how organizations adapt to operating it.

In this episode of the Built for Trust Podcast, Nick Lippis shares his perspective on the changes reshaping enterprise infrastructure. He explores why continuous software updates are driving a new approach to operations, what organizations need to prepare for as hybrid AI becomes mainstream, and why AI FinOps and governance will play a critical role in the road ahead.

This summer marks the beginning of a new operating model for enterprise IT. Nick explains what that shift means for enterprise leaders and the technologies, processes, and operational models they'll need to embrace as AI moves from experimentation to production.

Cyber is the one disruption FedEx Freight can't route around.

In this episode of Built for Trust, Nick Lippis sits down with Michael Milligan, CISO of FedEx Freight, to discuss how AI is reshaping enterprise security from the boardroom to the front lines of enterprise operations.

Michael breaks down the two questions dominating board conversations today: how risk is being managed and how the company is leveraging AI to stay competitive. They explore why the traditional model of waiting on vendor roadmaps is breaking down, how AI is compressing development cycles from weeks to hours, and what that shift means for security teams responsible for managing risk and governance.

Michael also shares how AI is transforming logistics at FedEx Freight, from routing and fleet efficiency to automated red teaming, and why he believes the only real defense against AI-powered threats is fighting AI with AI.
