Evolved Radio

Welcome back to the Evolved Radio Podcast! In today’s episode, I’m joined by Anup Ghosh [https://www.linkedin.com/in/anupghosh/] with Threatmate [https://www.threatmate.com]. Anup and I deep dive into one of the MSP industry’s hottest—and sometimes most confusing—topics: cybersecurity. But instead of focusing on the aftermath of a security incident (what they call “right of the boom”), we shift the conversation to proactive measures—what it really means to operate “left of the boom.” We unpack the concept of security as a utility, discuss how to utilize NIST and CIS frameworks, and explore fear-based selling. This episode is packed with insights that will help you strengthen your security posture before disaster strikes. So listen in to stay ahead of the next big threat.

Welcome back to another episdoe of the Evolved Radio Podcast! In this episode, I’m joined by Peter Melby [https://www.linkedin.com/in/petermelby/] and Ryan Barton [https://www.linkedin.com/in/ryanbarton-mstech/] with New Charter Technologies [https://www.newchartertech.com].  Sure, AI is everywhere these days, but we cut through the hype to talk about how things actually changed when ChatGPT hit the scene and suddenly put powerful AI tools in the hands of everyone. Ryan shares how that breakthrough moment inspired him to roll up his sleeves and experiment with AI in real business scenarios. Peter talks about why New Charter decided to take a hands-on approach with AI, instead of just waiting around for vendors to figure it out. We talk honestly about what’s working, what isn’t, and why sometimes you just have to make your own path with new technology. If you want an inside look at how AI is impacting MSPs or you’re just curious about what’s really possible right now, tune in! We’ve got practical insights, plenty of candid takes, and even a few laughs along the way. This episode is brought to you by Opsleader Pro [https://www.evolvedmgmt.com/opsleader-pro].
