560 CyberFOX 101
Guests: Ali Johnston, a cybersecurity expert, discusses the ins and outs of CyberFox, a leading cybersecurity solution.
What could be the ultimate choice between Threat Locker and Cyber Fox when it comes to cybersecurity for your business? Ali Johnston, a seasoned IT business owner based in Satellite Beach, Florida, joins us to spill the beans on her decision-making process. Ali details why she chose CyberFOX over ThreatLocker after a comprehensive product evaluation. Her insights highlight that the choice is not as clear cut as it might seem and is heavily influenced by the specific needs of your business.
Ali also explains why she wants to switch from N-Able to Kaseya and why she wants to be able to press a button to deploy software.
Lastly, we venture into Ali's experiences at various tech events and expos, including the Global Security Exchange (GSX) in Dallas, Texas.
