What happens when ... You get a data breach
Data breaches are no longer an if but when scenario. With so much data on file – from student details to health and financial records – a breach at your school isn’t just inconvenient, it’s a reputational and financial risk you can’t afford.
Together we’ll go beyond the usual firewall and software discussion, learning first-hand from industry experts on key proactive steps you can take and best practice response plans to minimise risk.
We sat down with Steven Woodhouse the Field CTO for Fortinet, and discussed just that!
Anthony gives us all the insider information on:
1. The Risks: Explore common cyber attacks and financial impacts for schools.
2. Best Practices: Discuss essential security measures for a safe learning environment.
3. Affordability Concerns: Address whether schools can afford data breach risks and costs.
4. Fortinet's Solution: Highlight Fortinet's role in data protection and prevention.

In this episode, we’re expanding further into a topic we covered last season that has shown no signs of going away: the great skill shortage.
Whether it’s filling a role or finding people with the right skills, the skills shortage continues to be one of the biggest pain points for Australian businesses.
In fact, a recent CEO survey found the No. 1 problem facing CEOs in Australia is ensuring their companies have the right skill set. This is driving a more significant focus on upskilling, technology, and specialist outsourcing to fill the gaps.
With the skill shortage set to be one of this decade’s biggest business disruptors, is a simple pivot in priorities enough? And what role does leadership play in finding (and retaining) the right people?
To weigh in on this discussion, our host Dom Garfi is joined by:
Sales Lead and Tech Expert Venu Metla from HPE Aruba Networking
People and Performance Expert Ben Pawson
Support for this episode comes from our innovation sponsor: HPE Aruba Networking. Helping you create connections that power your business forward and the vision to think differently.
