Tech me for the weekend – 7th July

First up an apology, a podcast only list this weekend, it’s all been a bit hectic this week so not had a lot of reading time…

A bit of a theme this week with a focus on security. Data security is constant hot topic from Ransomware to governance and all that’s in between, so if you are fighting the good data security fight, you may find these shows provide some interesting insight.

All of the links below take you to the podcast show notes pages, each of those pages have the episodes embedded, or you can of course look for them in your favourite podcatchers.

.future from Microsoft – Securing a digital battlefield

This is a new podcast from Microsoft and episode 1 was an interesting start, looking at the growing impact of the modern cyber threat and how in many quarters it is seen as the next potential “war zone” a good insight and don’t worry, not as scary as it sounds!

Inside Out Security – what does GDPR mean for countries outside of the EU

The EU General Data Protection Regulation, GDPR, is going to be a massive change on how we handle personal data, this episode takes a look at one of the common questions associated with the regulation, “how does it impact me if I’m outside of the EU?” the reality is, it probably will.

A good debate about how and why it will impact you, regardless of location.

NetApp TechONTAP – Security update

The ONTAP boys are back in the list again this week, but to be honest, that’s because I’m biased as I’m on this show!

Don’t worry it’s not just me, I join the regular team as well as some of NetApp’s very own data security gurus as we talk about the latest threats, the importance of understanding your data and how none of this works if you don’t build an in-depth data security strategy.

Lots of good tips and advice.

Tech Interviews

If the Tech ONTAP podcast isn’t enough of me for you, then there is of course this weeks Tech Interviews.

A personal favourite this show and a little bit of a digression from normal, as rather than talking with someone from the tech industry, I catch up with an actual technology user!

I chat with Lee Clark of Givepenny UK about how he has integrated data and cloud technology to deliver innovation to the fundraising sector, allowing charities to find new ways of engaging with a whole new generation of fundraisers.

A fantastic example of how technology can really make a big difference – I hope you enjoy it.

How a 100-mile bike ride inspired a new way of fundraising – Lee Clark – Ep34

Hopefully that should quench your tech thirst this weekend, enjoy the shows and have a great weekend.
