Waves & Wires.

In this month's episode, we're switching things up. For the first time on the podcast, we're handing the mic to one of you - our partners. Mark, the CEO and founder of Briqt in the Netherlands, has spent 15 years specialising in SMB and MDU (Multi-Dwelling Unit) networks - securing and connecting apartment blocks, healthcare facilities and multi-tenant office buildings. He's got the receipts to prove it works.  From templated deployments and triple-play separation, to Wi-Fi 7 rollouts and the magic of taking an 8-week holiday without a single network call, Mark pulls back the curtain on what it really takes to build a thriving business on Nebula - the secure cloud platform built for businesses just like yours. Honest, practical, and packed with the kind of insight only someone in the trenches can offer. Tune in - your next deployment will thank you. 

Welcome to this month's episode of Waves & Wires, the networking podcast by Zyxel Networks. In this episode, we're shining a light on one of the most underestimated risks in the business world today: the cybersecurity threat facing small and medium-sized businesses.The statistics are stark - SMBs are consistently among the most targeted organisations for cyberattacks, yet are often the least protected. In this episode, we explore why that is and what can be done about it. We cover the most common and damaging threats facing smaller businesses right now: ransomware attacks that can bring operations to a standstill overnight, phishing emails designed to deceive even the most careful employees, and the growing exploitation of social media as an attack vector that many businesses simply aren't watching.We also look at the practical side — what protection actually looks like at the SMB level. We discuss the USG FLEX H series and how it brings enterprise-grade cybersecurity protection into a format that works for smaller businesses, alongside Nebula, our secure cloud networking platform, which gives both businesses and MSP partners the visibility and control to manage cybersecurity at scale - without needing a dedicated in-house security team.For MSPs, this month's episode is particularly relevant - we explore how the right tools can help you deliver enterprise-level cybersecurity to your SMB clients, closing the protection gap that leaves so many smaller businesses dangerously exposed. Because in today's threat landscape, being small is no longer a reason to fly under the radar. If anything, it's exactly what makes you a target.
