Erik views BYOC and VPC peering as increasingly outdated security approaches compared with robust paradigms such as zero trust.

“And, and I actually think, you know, BYOC, you know, sort of VPC peering, like, all of these things, you know. Like, to me, they, they reflect sort of an outdated security model of, like- We need to protect everything inside our own network, right? Like using the network as a moat. And that I don't think is true anything-- in anymore, right?”

“Like we, we've sort of moved on to more like actually robust security paradigms like, you know, uh, zero trust and things like that.”

“And so to me, BYOC and those things, like they, they look increasingly as like outdated, at least from a security perspective.”
