Don’t miss this chat and stay prepared in 2022.
In this episode of CybersoundTM, Jason Pufahl, Steve Maresca, and Matt Fusaro discuss the stringent parameters on insurance policy renewals, particularly dealing with #cybersecurity.

The Main Frame Connecticut Public Act 21-119

Businesses have adopted specific cybersecurity standards for their protection. And some are even being incentivized to do it. Today’s special guest on Cybersound is Sherwin Yoder, a partner at the Carmody Law Firm in Connecticut, who is responsible for its privacy and security practices.
He sits down with Jason Pufahl, Steve Maresca, and Matt Fusaro to discuss a local government act--Public Act 21-119--that encourages businesses to take on cybersecurity frameworks that may protect them from data breach lawsuits.

A Year In Review Part 1

Managing service providers and general technology support staff evolved to a hybrid workplace in 2021. Many companies had to adapt to new working environments, which appears to be the new normal. Now, tech support has to manage these remote workstations. Sounds easy, but from encrypting cloud software to protecting the staff from ransomware, today’s IT manager has more to consider to optimize the business for efficiency and productivity.
Join Jason, Steve, and Matt as they look back on how organizations are adjusting to a hybrid workforce and the technical concerns that pose to today's workforce.

Security is Not Optional

With the threat landscape continuously shifting, keeping security top of mind when it comes to the implementation of managed services is more important than ever.
Jason and Matt sit down with Michael Grande, CEO, and President of TBNG Inc. to discuss why oversight can cause issues for any type of business, no matter the size or type of data they have, and how being proactive is key. In the age of ransomware attacks— security is not optional.

Ransomware Attack: The First 48

If your organization has not been a victim of ransomware, be thankful but remain aware. When you least expect it, someone could click on the wrong link or download the wrong file, and your entire company will be held hostage to the highest bidder.
What do you do when that happens? Where do you turn for incident response? How will your team prepare? The next few moments of CyberSound may help you get ready for the first steps of that emergency if it ever happens.

How Does Santa REALLY Know What to Bring You?

You’ll have to excuse the guys on this episode. They’re announcing that Santa Claus is now a client of Vancord. And since “the big man” is buying all those electronic devices, he is naturally concerned about your online identity.

Preventing the Burnout: Preparing for time off

Indeed has shared that 52% of all workers are feeling burned out. This creates stress, fatigue, frustration, and mental health issues. How can prevent the burn out? Prepare for the time off! It’s simple to say and difficult to do.
Today, Jason, Matt, and Steve sit down with a licensed clinical social worker of 17 years, Lisa Grande. She will lead the conversation around the topic of professional burnout and how to make yourself a priority and allow yourself to recharge and unplug from work. It's not about work-life balance as much as it is finding success.
