Highlights
00:05 — Kenny mentions that the complexity in cybersecurity is growing exponentially. It used to be simple, he says; you were either inside your firewall or outside the firewall, and you really wanted to protect the things that were inside. But now that everything moves outside of the firewall, it’s just a much bigger surface that you have to protect.
00:34 — Kenny works for a manufacturing company, which utilizes IoT, manufacturing devices, and many things that are all interconnected. There’s no time to do processing at a really distant cloud location. You end up with more edge use and use of data centers and other places.
01:36 — You have to have a system that’s thinking about devices that can be anywhere, on any continent, at any time.
