What the show is, who makes it, and how to get involved.
Uncharted is a podcast about what happens when innovation and security meet in the same room. Every episode starts with a decision someone actually had to make, shipping an AI feature, reporting an incident, saying no to a launch, and works backward from there. The working theory of the show is that progress depends on innovation and security working together, not trading off against each other.
Paula Fontana co-hosts. She has spent 20 years building, marketing, and implementing security and risk products, most recently building strategy for AI governance, and is the founder of Eudai. Her co-host is an operator from inside the teams that change and protect the enterprise, announced in September 2026.
Season 1 goes into production in fall 2026, with new episodes monthly.

CISOs, founders, heads of product, and anyone who has to answer whether something is safe to ship.
Innovation inside security itself, managing risk while innovating, and what it takes to innovate as an internal team.
