Summary: In this episode: Dave Dufour, VP of Engineering for Webroot is our feature interview this week. News from: Amazon, Zayo, CTA, Ping Identity, CyberGRX, Webroot, ProtectWise, Automox, Convercent and a lot more! Lots of brains in Boulder and Ft. Collins Amazon may splitting HQ2, but probably not coming to Denver anyway. However, lots of millennials are, and so are smart people. But strangely, not due to our recruitment campaign in the Bay Area. Zayo is splitting into two. The APEX Awards are out, and we know the CISO of the year. Ping Identity releases some research on the brand damage from breaches. Plus blogs from CyberGRX, Webroot, ProtectWise, Automox and Convercent. Support us on Patreon!
