Small business and Managed Service Provider special!

• Do small businesses face the same cyber threats as large organisations?
• Are your security solutions 100% effective? And how do you pick a good one?
• Where are the opportunities for MSPs to add value and make more money?

In June 2022 we set up a panel of security experts to help and advise companies selling managed security services. Managed Service Providers (MSPs) need to choose a set of security solutions that they can use or possibly resell to their small business clients, known as SMBs.

The clients face the same cyber threats as large organisations, but they’re far less equipped to handle them.

We answer all of these questions and more with special guests Martin Lee from Cisco, Chad Skipper from VMware, and Luis Corrons from Avast.

Mental health is an important but often misunderstood area, full of prejudice and technical jargon. How can we look after ourselves better at work and in our personal lives?

• Post-pandemic, we take stock on the mental impacts of working from home and isolated environments. And now we’re facing hybrid working. Can we take control?
• Is this the right time to take stock and address any issues we can identify to stay happier?
• Protective factors can keep us going but, when they disappear, we can experience problems

We address all of these issues and more, with special guest Olly Church (The Eleos Partnership).
