  • Making Boring Stuff Interesting
    Mar 11 2021
    I was delighted to talk to two of my favourite digital content creators/story tellers/trainers. For a while I've been obsessed with making dry topic training interesting. When it comes to risk and controls and in some cases the techie and seemingly irrelevant spectre of cyber threats to individuals this really proves to be challenging. So many of us have been forced to 'click through' unmemorable training just to make sure we don't appear on the naughty list. So what's the value in this training if nobody takes key messages away? Ian Murphy from CyberOff has been making superbly memorable and accessible videos on Cyber threats. He brings the concepts to life in a truly memorable way! You can't help but come away from the viewing both better educated and wanting to wash your eyes and ears out with acid. ;-) Simeon Quarrie from Vivida has been bringing more and more innovative training to the Security sector with a niche focus on Cyber for the last few years. We have worked together for years on some super cool initiatives including bring virtual reality Crisis Management and Cyber Response training to the masses. I would encourage anyone looking for stand-out training to contact Ian & Simeon to see how they can help you and your organisation! Obviously mention me so I can get some free swag from them including hopefully a tee with Ian as Vanilla Ice on it! 😂 Some key links: My blog: https://www.strangeshape.com/​ Vivida: https://vivida.io/​ Simeon Quarrie: https://www.linkedin.com/in/simeonqua...​ CyberOff: https://www.cyberoff.co.uk/​ Ian Murphy: https://www.linkedin.com/in/ianmurphy/​ #vlog​ #blog​ #cyber​ #resilience​ #operationalresilience​ #training​ #innovation​ #80srappers​ #awareness​ #podcast​ #education​ #storytelling​ #visual​ #virtual

  • Ryan Roadkill and his journey to become my favourite artist!
    Feb 15 2021

    I was so happy to chat to Ryan Roadkill who is one of my favourite artists & illustrator! I own t-shirts, pins, stickers, hats, pictures and books with his artwork. I also have a Porsche 911 bonnet ready to be adorned with a unique commission at some point post lockdown!

    We weaved through how he started getting into art, what inspires him. How much of his work is commissioned vs his own inspiration, digital art and a few other things. Basically the journey he took JUST to become my favourite artist. 😎

    Please follow him on Instagram (https://www.instagram.com/ryanroadkill/) and buy loads of stuff from his site (https://www.ryanroadkill.com/) or from the Bike Shed Motorcycle Club (https://bikeshedmoto.com/collections/caps/products/bsmc-dead-dakar-doug-cap-black) or from Hebtro (https://hebtro.co/product/beer-mat-pack/) or StolenSpace (https://www.stolenspace.com/product-category/ryan-roadkill-originals/) or Hermanus (https://www.hermanusbruges.be/product-page/garage-rock-english) or wherever you can find his stuff!

  • Exploring Cyber Resilience with Will Dixon
    Feb 5 2021

    Cyber Resilience gets mentioned often and as with ‘Resilience’ there are often a million and one definitions of it! I got together with Will Dixon, the head of Cyber Security for the World Economic Forum and explored what it is! Is it:

    - A Cyber Recovery Vault to guard against Ransomware? Or is that snake oil?

    - Just another scenario for Operational Resilience to design for? Or is that applying an old school lens to it?

    - A culture and controls within a company to minimise the likelihood of a successful Cyber attack? Or is that just a BAU CISO role?

    - All of the above? Or none of the above?

    Will and I meander around the topic and hopefully you find this discussion useful in your own discussions about how to prepare your organisation for the Cyber threats of the now and the future.

    More on Will here: https://www.linkedin.com/in/william-dixon-b331b410a/
