🔍 Keeping Informed: The Role of YouTube in News & Cyber Security Did you know that 33% of Americans get their news from YouTube? It’s no surprise, really—YouTube has become the modern TV for many. Personally, I don’t watch much YouTube. Yusra S. does though and she brought up John Hammond, who's great at breaking down ethical hacking, often working through Hack The Box challenges. However, platforms like YouTube are starting to remove hacking-related content because they fear it teaches malicious techniques. But here’s the thing: cyber security knowledge is more important than ever. Take Shodan, for example—a website that scans and reveals open ports worldwide. The biggest vulnerabilities? 🔹 CCTV cameras 🔹 Baby monitors 🔹 IoT devices like Ring doorbells Anyone with access can see unsecured devices—a throwback to the ‘90s when computers were left wide open. As YouTube continues to evolve as a news and learning platform, where do we draw the line between education and restriction? Should ethical hacking content be removed, or is it crucial for awareness and defense? What do you think? Let’s discuss. #CyberSecurity #YouTube #EthicalHacking #IOT #TechTrends

March is B Corp Month, a time to celebrate businesses that balance profit with purpose. Here at Dial A Geek, we’re proud to be part of the B Corp community, but we won’t pretend it was easy to get here. So, is it something your business should consider? If you care about sustainability, ethical business practices, and accountability, the answer is: absolutely. https://lnkd.in/e9ZcKFjE #MSP #BCorpMonth #UKBCorp #EthicalBusiness

Keeping up with industry trends is no easy feat. Especially when your industry is as rapidly-evolving as cyber security (especially when AI is considered!). For me, newsletters like the ones I get from Daniel Miessler ⚙️ provide valuable insights into cyber security and AI. Others think newsletters are very oldschool and look for their tech news elsewhere (Yusra S. is a great example of that). The key seems to be finding a balance — combining trusted resources with quick, digestible content. How do you stay informed? I'd love to hear your go-to sources! #CyberSecurity #TechNews #MSP

📊 Executive Snapshot: AI & Your Business (Anthropic Economic Index) Wondering if your business is behind on AI? You're not. Anthropic's Economic Index, an initiative aimed at understanding AI's effects on the labour markets and the economy over time, shows adoption is just getting started: ➡️ 57% of AI is currently helping teams do their jobs better—not replacing them. ➡️ Only 4% of roles use AI extensively (75%+ of tasks). You're right on time. Tech roles (37%) and creative fields (10%) currently see the highest AI adoption. ➡️ Mid-to-high paid jobs are benefitting most, but there’s huge potential still untapped across SMEs. Graphs below! 🎯 Something to think about: How could AI help your business become more productive or competitive? Most SMEs haven’t fully explored AI yet—there’s huge opportunity to lead your sector rather than follow. Not sure where to start?...
