The Software Process and Measurement Cast 622 features my interview with Brian Gill, CEO at Gillware. Brian is a serial entrepreneur in the software and cyber world. We discussed the importance of cybersecurity, real backups, having disaster recovery plans, and the fact that just having data in the cloud is not a security strategy. Brian’s bio Brian is a computer scientist, entrepreneur, and angel investor. Brian currently serves as Chairman of Gillware, which provides cyber risk assessments, data recovery, incident response, and digital forensics services. He is a co-founder of Phoenix Nuclear Labs and served on PNL’s board from inception to when it decided to spin-off SHINE Medical Technologies. Those two companies have raised over 100 million dollars of venture capital and employ hundreds of people in Wisconsin.   LinkedIn: https://www.linkedin.com/in/brian-gill-68997a38/ Gillware: https://www.gillware.com/   Re-Read Saturday News  This week we tackle Chapter 19 of Steve Tendon and Daniel Doiron’s Flow.  Chapter 19 combines many of the moving parts from the previous chapters into a set of tools for monitoring the execution of work.  The authors pick up at the portfolio level developed in Chapter 18. Portfolio items, once committed and placed into flow, can contain many groups of work that Steve and Daniel term Minimal Outcome-Value Effort or MOVEs (). Once in flow (being worked on), a flow manager picks up managing the MOVEs.    Week 1: – Week 2: (The Story of Herbie) – Week 3: –   Week 4: –   Week 5: –    Week 6: –   Week 7: –   Week 8: –   Week 9: -   Week 10: -   Week 11: -   Week 12: -   Week 13: -   Week 14: - Week 15: -   Week 16: -   Week 17: -   The Software Process and Measurement Cast is a proud sponsor of the following event!
