Welcome to Tech Ties and Human Vibes! In this episode, hosts Adam and Nancy sit down with Jason L. Rorie, a seasoned expert with nearly 30 years in IT and cybersecurity, and the founder of Triad Infosec.

Jason dives deep into the world of cyber leadership, explaining what it means to have cybersecurity 'a seat at the table' within an organization, from HR to finance. He shares his unique journey from running an MSP to specializing in the 'paperwork side of cyber,' focusing on risk mitigation, compliance strategies, and ensuring proactive protection for businesses.

Jason recounts a sobering story of a business lost due to lack of proactive measures and explains why bad actors are now a multi-trillion dollar 'business' focused on extortion.
