We're kicking off the Arrow Security Series this week as David Fearne and Richard Holmes are live from Infosec with tops guests from the security industry. In this episode David MacLean and Paul Dignan from F5 are talking about how to succeed in a multi-cloud world.

If there is one thing that we can say is a certainty in the technology industry it is the constant state of change, how technology works, how we want to use it, where we want to use it and what we expect from it is constantly changing and in reality is ever more demanding. One of the things I like to do in my role is spend time looking at technology predictions and listen to ideas from those in the industry tasked with defining the strategic direction of their businesses, not to judge whether they are right or wrong (predicting things in this industry is so very difficult) but to pick out trends and areas that are of interest to the work I do and then at least be aware of it and keep a watching brief on how it develops. Keeping a watching brief gave me the idea for this week’s podcast as I catch up with two guests who produce an annual technology predictions blog and back that up with episodes on their own successful podcast where they look in more detail at those predictions. David Fearne and Richard Holmes work for Arrow ECS, a global technology supplier and one of the worlds largest companies. David is Technical Director, charged with looking after the relationship and developing strategy for over 100 different technology partners and suppliers. Richard is Business Development Director for Arrow’s Internet Of Things (IoT) business. This week we look at their predictions from 2017, we discuss a wide range of areas, we look at data management and the concept of “data divorce” and why in a rapidly changing landscape how we look after our data will become increasingly important. The second area we explore is data analytics and how do we build into our businesses the ability to make data driven decisions. We discuss the fact that all businesses make decisions based on data, however, how do we remove our human inefficiencies. We wrap up looking at security and David’s assertion of a change in “security posture” and how it’s crucial that we rethink the way we look at security of our systems. We discuss why “assuming breach” is an important part of that change. We look at, as the security problem becomes ever more complex, how do we continue to address it, is the answer to employ ever more security specialists? It’s a great chat with David and Richard and we could have discussed these trends for hours, luckily for you, it’s only 40 minutes! Enjoy the Show.
