Straight talk on networking & security!
Every week there's a new phrase, trend or acronym dominating the networking & security conversations. Too often, the buzzwords get in the way of what you really want to know: What does it actually mean? Why does it matter? And how will it help my organisation?
That's where Buzz Off comes in. Hosted by Oli Chapman, Head of Networking & Security at Computacenter, we bring together experts from leading technology and security organisations to explore the biggest topics shaping the industry today.
But there's one rule: leave the buzzwords at the door. No jargon. No marketing speak. No hiding behind industry clichés.
Instead, expect honest conversations about today's challenges, emerging technologies, evolving threats, and the practical steps organisations can take to stay secure, connected, and successful.
Identity, innovation, and a wardrobe full of quarter zips—join Oliver Chapman and Gabe Luis for a fast-paced episode where tech talk meets the Buzz Off challenge.
