Darren and Mike kick off this first episode, outlining how the podcast will operate, then they discuss the importance of understanding the cyber attack against the Logistics company, The Knights of Olde, and what lessons can be learned from it.

They also describe a bit about their backgrounds for those new to the show. 

Give a listen, tell a friend.

This premiere episode was met with 15 minutes of audio issues but we cut that out so you will hopefully get the gist of what we are doing here from the conversation that remains.

We'll do better as we go.
