Hi everyone and welcome to the Security edition of Insentragram \u2013 clearly very topical at the moment.\u00a0 For our ANZ subscribers, most of us will have just finished our financial year.\u00a0 I trust that everyone had a solid end to the year.\u00a0 At Insentra we had an excellent finish, breaking many records in our business across sales, invoicing and new leads \u2013 in fact we received over 158 opportunities from our partner network in the month of June. \u00a0Thank you to all of our partners for the trust you place in the Insentra team. From humble beginnings 7 short years ago, our business has grown to be a global organisation with presence in 8 countries around the world, where we continue to operate with our partner obsessed, 100% channel based model.<\/p>\n
Last month we introduced video content and the feedback was so overwhelming we are going to continue with this approach.\u00a0 In the future you will also see transcriptions of the videos for those of you who prefer to read and we will also be launching an Insentra Podcast channel where the audio content can be listened to at your convenience.<\/p>\n
In this edition you can meet Gerry Sillars, APAC VP and Head of International Sales for UpGuard.\u00a0 Make sure to watch that one through to the end to listen to Gerry\u2019s favourite joke, told only in a way Gerry knows how!\u00a0 Our very own Lee Foster, Cyber Security and Information Management Practice Manager, also took to the camera this month to share his experience on what he is seeing in the industry across our partners and their clients.\u00a0 Simon Altit, Director of our EMEA business shares insights on the Shadow IT problem and I have another chat on the couch with Ian McAdam, MD of Symantec Pacific.<\/p>\n
Security is absolutely front of mind for our partners and their clients and no board meeting takes place without cyber security and\/or cyber resilience being an agenda item.\u00a0 With the onset of the mandatory breach legislation in Australia and GDPR in Europe, boards are concerned more than ever about protecting their data, brand and borders and not many truly understand what these pieces of legislation mean to their businesses.\u00a0 In itself this is creating an enormous opportunity for trusted advisors to make a difference and help shape the way organisations are improving their security posture.\u00a0 As we all know, once the board is concerned about something, solutions are found and implemented quickly.<\/p>\n
To those of you who contributed to the CEO Sleepout by providing a donation, thank you very much!\u00a0 Together with my co-founders Steve Boi and Itzik Gur, we raised almost $14,000 for which we were very proud.\u00a0 Sleeping on the Sydney Cricket Ground was certainly an experience I will never forget and has acted as a solid anchor in my mind as to the reason we was there. Homelessness can happen to anyone, it doesn\u2019t have a postcode and it certainly isn\u2019t discerning and I am very humbled by the support we received for this event.\u00a0 If you still want to contribute, you can do so by clicking\u00a0<\/span>here<\/a>.<\/p>\n Thanks for reading this far!\u00a0 Enjoy this month\u2019s edition and, as always, please keep the feedback coming \u2013 we love to hear from you.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Hi everyone and welcome to the Security edition of Insentragram \u2013 clearly very topical at the moment.\u00a0 For our ANZ subscribers, most of us will have just finished our financial year.\u00a0 I trust that everyone had a solid end to the year.\u00a0 At Insentra we had an excellent finish, breaking many records in our business… Continue reading The Security Edition<\/span><\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":56,"featured_media":575,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"content-type":"","footnotes":""},"categories":[17],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-574","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-insentragram","entry"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.insentragroup.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/574","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.insentragroup.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.insentragroup.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.insentragroup.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/56"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.insentragroup.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=574"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.insentragroup.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/574\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.insentragroup.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/575"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.insentragroup.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=574"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.insentragroup.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=574"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.insentragroup.com\/au\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=574"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
