In this episode, Richard talks to Fabian Wosar, Chief Technology Officer of Emsisoft. Emsisoft provide premium internet security software for the home and business user and is a leading supplier of behaviour analysis technology.

Fabian has helped develop the anti-malware technologies and ransomware decryptors for Emsisoft and leads their ransomware recovery service. He's been described by the BBC as the best ransomware expert out there.

They discuss what Fabian really thinks about cybercriminals and the relationships he has with them – they often contact him for advice. He shares how he stays positive in the face of so many challenging situations, and he talks openly about how he keeps himself safe offline.

 Richard and Fabian also look at what ransomware actually is and how easy it is to deploy, and why so many MSPs are choosing Emsisoft products to keep themselves and their clients safe. And they talk about security, education and the implications of suffering a ransomware attack as the MSP.
