The Great Security Debate is *back*! It’s been a busy year, but it’s time to get this show back on the air (and maybe on the road). Dan takes a break from the rat race, Erik took over the world, and Brian uses Elmer’s Glue to splice his network cables.
Topics in the show this week:
- AWS and Microsoft make the best cases for business continuity plans, the AI
- Is public cloud reliable enough? Should we all move back to local data centres? How can we reliably assess that risk?
- Want an AI Data Centre on your town? NIMBY vs Innovation!
We will be back every 2 weeks on Mondays. Subscribe on YouTube at https://youtube.com/@greatsecuritydebate to see our smiling faces as you watch, or in your favourite podcast application to listen on your commute or with your whole family around the radio.
See you on the 17th with more debates! And some entirely new shows coming from Distilling Security very soon, too. Subscribe to the newsletter on our website https://distillingsecurity.com to hear all about them
