Episode 11.18 - Decentralization for many, not all

from Crucial Tech · host Lou Covey

Last week we discussed the trend toward decentralization of technology, and we discuss that more next week in Cyber Protection Magazine. But while it may be a global trend, it doesn't mean everywhere.This week we met with Lisa Pent, CEO of ThePentEdge.com, a consulting organization that works with small to mid market banks and credit unions where consolidation is still very much standard. We also touch on the recent decision by the Chinese government to ban large US. and Israeli cybersecurity firms from operating in China, contributing to our prediction of the end of the World Wide Web.
