Gain Your Edge is a twice-monthly podcast on all things IT. On this week’s episode, we’re exploring an unfortunate conversation that has sprung up in recent years: How do we protect our loved ones, friends, and coworkers in violent emergency situations? This question is deeply personal with serious implications, and technology has quickly become an important part of the solution.

To help us better understand the tech advancements that are making public areas safer, we’re sitting down with Steve Given: a tech professional at Avaya with over 25 years of experience and an expert on healthcare and SMART campus technology. Join Steve and host Skip Lineberg as they discuss how this technology is improving the safety of our loved ones, with an emphasis on campus security – a topic that’s close to home for many listeners.
