As a follow up to the first ever, recently released PRTG podcast (which, if you haven't listened to already, you may need to re-assess your life choices click here immediately!), Rupert Collier, our resident UK sales manager and aspiring microphone addict, gets to work on another new project: The PRTG Interview, otherwise known as "Paessler Rupert's Through Grilling"!To get things kicked off in style, Rupert talks to cyber security expert Carl Gottlieb about:

  • The lowdown on the "WannaCry" incident earlier in May and how you go about cleaning up after a huge attack like that.
    • What IT administrators need to do to prevent themselves (and their users) becoming a victim of these sort of things in the future.
  • The upcoming European-wide GDPR legislation and how it will affect you.
  • Why traditional anti-virus just isn't cutting the mustard any longer.
  • What a good security posture looks like for most small to medium sized customers.
