EP168 Beyond Regular LLMs: How SecLM Enhances Security and What Teams Can Do With It

Guests:  Umesh Shankar, Distinguished Engineer, Chief Technologist for Google Cloud Security Scott Coull, Head of Data Science Research, Google Cloud Security Topics: What does it mean to "teach AI security"? How did we make SecLM? And also: why did we make SecLM? What can "security trained LLM" do better vs regular LLM? Does making it better at security make it worse at other things that we care about? What can a security team do with it today?  What are the "starter use cases" for SecLM? What has been the feedback so far in terms of impact - both from practitioners but also from team leaders? Are we seeing the limits of LLMs for our use cases? Is the "LLM is not magic" finally dawning?
