EP60 Impersonating Service Accounts in GCP and Beyond: Cloud Security Is About IAM?

Guest:  Dylan Ayrey, cofounder of Truffle Security Topics: Could you explain briefly why identity is so important in the cloud? A skeptic on cloud security once told us that "in the cloud, we are one identity mistake from a breach." Is this true? For listeners who aren't familiar with GCP, could you give us the 30 second story on "what is a service account." How is it different from a regular IAM account? What are service account impersonations? How can I see if my service accounts can be impersonated? How do I detect it? How can I better secure my organization from impersonation attacks?
