Uganda, in the mid-1990s - 35-year-old Betty Bigombe is sent by President Yoweri Museveni to the north of the country to open peace talks with rebel groups. Her mission: to stop the violence by negotiating with those behind thousands of deaths and horrific massacres. But to bring peace, she might have to compromise - and that might mean offering concessions or even immunity to people who have perpetrated unimaginable crimes. Could Betty end the suffering without sacrificing justice?Stopping violence through a ceasefire is one thing. Securing a peace that prevents future conflict is quite another. A true, lasting peace demands more than just halting the guns; it requires getting all the elements right to avoid reigniting old wounds. But in order to get there, we might have to explore challenging avenues.In the second episode of Chasing Peace, a special three-part mini series of Sideways, Matthew Syed explores whether lessons from past efforts can guide us toward a peace that lasts. Should we rethink how we engage with those labelled as ‘the bad guys'? Where does justice fit into a successful peace process?With former Uganda peace negotiator Betty Bigombe, preventive diplomacy expert Gabrielle Rifkind, Professor of International Relations Oliver Richmond and International Center for Transitional Justice Deputy Executive Director Anna-Myriam Roccatello.

Send us a textEver wonder why your meeting requests keep getting ignored? In this eye-opening episode, I pull back the curtain on what really happens when you pitch a potential buyer and why most approaches fail miserably. Drawing on my experience of receiving 10-12 pitches daily, I break down the psychology behind why the same boring templates and self-centered approaches get immediately dismissed.The truth is startling but simple: nobody cares that you're trying to hit your quota. Decision-makers calculate their time's worth in hundreds of dollars per hour and are naturally skeptical after past disappointments. When you ask for a "quick 15-minute call," they're mentally translating that to 30+ minutes and asking, "Is this worth $200+ of my time?" Without establishing credibility and differentiating yourself first, the answer is almost always no.I share practical strategies for standing out from the crowd by flipping the traditional approach. Instead of asking for time upfront, start by depositing value—share insights, provide unexpected help, or demonstrate you've done your homework. Connect every meeting request to a specific, better outcome for the buyer. Ask questions that make them stop and think, disrupting their automatic filters. Most importantly, meet them on their terms, not yours.The modern sales landscape demands a consultant mindset rather than product-pushing. Focus entirely on the buyer's future state and how your solution creates meaningful improvement from their current situation. This investment-first approach not only increases your chances of securing meetings but builds the trust foundation necessary for successful, long-term relationships.Ready to transform your approach?

In this episode we discuss best practices and the dos and don'ts of legal ethics when facing searches and seizures of your electronic devices at the US border, and how best to protect your and your clients' privileged and confidential information. To discuss this urgent topic, we speak with three experts: Nakia Matthews, Senior Legal Ethics Counsel at the D.C. Bar, Kevin Carroll, Litigation and Investigations Partner at Fluet, and former Senior Counsel to Homeland Security Secretary John Kelly and House Homeland Security Committee Chairman Peter King, and Erik Laykin, CEO and Managing Partner of Global Data Risk LLC and global authority on digital security. Please join us as we tackle and explore in a very lively (in person) conversation: (1) legal professionals' ethics obligations; (2) the rules, laws, and practices that apply at the US border to legal professionals' electronic devices and data; and (3) best practices for legal professionals in terms of electronic device security and hygiene at the US border.Please note, the positions and opinions expressed by the speakers are strictly their own, and do not necessarily represent the views of their employers, nor those of the D.C.

Aviatrix survey reveals only 8% of enterprises have effective Zero Trust — and why network security needs to catch up “Without all three legs, you don't have a stool — therefore, you don't really have Zero Trust.” — Doug Merritt, CEO, Aviatrix In a revealing interview with Technology Reseller News, Aviatrix CEO Doug Merritt joins publisher Doug Green to spotlight the cloud security gap most enterprises don't yet realize they have — and what Aviatrix is doing to solve it. Drawing on a just-released survey of 403 U.S. IT professionals, Merritt paints a sobering picture: only 8% of respondents believe they have an effective Zero Trust security stance in the cloud. While identity and endpoint protections have advanced, the third critical leg — network security — is largely missing. That gap, says Merritt, is what Aviatrix is closing with its Cloud Native Security Fabric (CNSF). Founded by a pioneering female Cisco engineer, Aviatrix brings deep roots in software-defined networking and cloud infrastructure. Today, the company is evolving into a cloud security leader by embedding inline network protection that adapts to cloud-native realities: atomized perimeters, ephemeral workloads, and increasingly complex DevOps pipelines. “The internet is now the enterprise network,” Merritt explains. “Your perimeter isn't five data centers — it's tens of thousands of ephemeral endpoints, APIs, and SaaS services.” Key insights from the podcast include: Why CNSF matters: CNSF forms the third leg of a Zero Trust framework alongside identity and endpoint security — bringing visibility, enforcement, and micro/macrosegmentation into cloud network traffic. Alarming survey findings: 2 out of 3 enterprises struggle with deploying cloud firewalls, over 50% cite visibility blind spots, and 85% report difficulties securing DevOps pipelines. Cloud threats on the rise: The shift to agentic AI and increasingly automated cyber threats make it essential to monitor east-west and egress traffic within the cloud — stopping lateral movement and command-and-control attacks before they spread. Channel opportunity: Aviatrix offers a partner-friendly CNSF solution that complements existing tools like CrowdStrike, Zscaler, Wiz, and cloud-native firewalls — with modular deployment, flexible integration, and a well-designed partner program. For organizations seeking to close their cloud network security blind spots, Aviatrix provides a free Network Security Blind Spot Assessment. And for those wanting to dig deeper, the full survey is available at aviatrix.com/resources. Learn more: https://aviatrix.com
