Manage episode 486755945 series 3618231
Ever felt like the pandemic was one massive, global disaster recovery test?
You're not alone.
In this episode of Cyber After Hours—Securing Remote Workforces: Lessons from the Pandemic—Paul and Evan are joined by their guest, John Vigeant, Chief Executive Officer (CEO) of Login VSI, to dive into how the world of cybersecurity (and office life itself!) changed almost overnight.
Starting with candid chats about the emotional roller coaster of pandemic-era decision-making, they quickly explore how remote work permanently shifted the way we think about hiring, collaboration, and trust.
From rapid-fire adoption of video conferencing and cloud tech, to navigating tricky trust issues and management pitfalls (spoiler: micromanaging didn't win anyone manager of the year), the duo reflects on why focusing on employee output—not just presence—became more important than ever.
They also discuss how organizations struggled with cybersecurity investments, bouncing between overkill and bare-minimum approaches.
And speaking of struggles, the episode highlights how essential flexibility, strategic team gatherings, and prioritizing employee well-being are for long-term loyalty and success.
Whether you’re leading teams, navigating remote life, or securing your digital workspace, join Paul and Evan as they unpack valuable pandemic lessons with humor, honesty, and a dash of cyber wisdom.
Pour a drink, settle in, and tune in to Cyber After Hours—where we turn tough lessons into valuable insights (and occasionally laugh at our own missteps).
