Manage episode 482645419 series 3618231
Ever wonder if you’re throwing money at cybersecurity or genuinely investing in it? In Episode 25 of Cyber After Hours—titled “Cybersecurity Budgeting: Where to Spend, Where to Save”—co-hosts Paul Marco and Evan Morgan dive into the nuts and bolts of smart spending.
Fresh off their experiences at recent conferences, including some focused on K-12 education, they share what it really takes to build meaningful connections, why shifting conference landscapes like RSA matter, and how an authentic mission in cybersecurity can drive bigger impact than any shiny new tool.
From the excitement in Paul’s voice to Evan’s quest to match his energy, this lively conversation touches on the power of root cause analysis, the value of operationalizing what you already have, and why you should think twice before piling on more tech.
They also highlight why it’s critical to define your use cases first—because buying every buzzy product out there won’t help if you don’t have the right processes in place.
Whether you’re looking to optimize your existing toolset, stretch your budget further, or spark innovation by bringing diverse voices to the table, this episode is packed with entertaining anecdotes and practical insights.
Just remember, it’s all for conversation, not official consultation.
Tune in, join the discussion, and find out how to balance what you’re spending with what you’re truly getting.
