When does Uncharted launch, and how often do episodes come out?

Season 1 goes into production in fall 2026, with new episodes monthly.

Who is the show for?

Anyone with a stake in innovation and security: security, product, and risk leaders making decisions about AI and emerging technology before there is a clean framework to point at, plus solution providers, investors, operators, policy makers, boards, and executives. CISOs, founders, heads of product, and anyone who has to answer whether something is safe to ship.

What topics does the show cover?

How innovation actually happens in security, on both sides of the table: inside enterprise teams and inside the companies building solutions for them. The recurring question is how to right-size the effort and pace the change, so you end up with something you can answer for later — to a board, a regulator, or a customer.
