In this episode, the BLOKWORX team will examine the recent ransomware attack against Collins Aerospace and the cascading effects it had on multiple European airports. We’ll explore how dependence on third-party systems for critical services (like check-in, boarding, baggage handling) can magnify risk, how airports and authorities responded, and what can be done (both technically and organizationally) to reduce the likelihood and impact of such disruptions in the future.

As businesses adapt to remote and hybrid work, the boundaries between office and home have all but disappeared. This week’s Safety Brief explores the idea that “work-from-anywhere = threats from everywhere.” From unsecured home Wi-Fi networks and personal devices to the explosion of IoT technology in our daily lives, today’s risks extend far beyond the office walls. We’ll discuss why a holistic security approach is critical for SMBs, what policies should be in place to protect data no matter where it lives, and how to build a culture of security awareness that travels with employees wherever they go.

Your cybersecurity stack is only as strong as its weakest link. In this episode, we’ll explore the essential tools and strategies that form a truly resilient defense, the kind that stops threats before they ever get a foothold. From endpoint security to email protection, we’ll unpack how each layer plays its role, why prevention is key, and how MSPs can make smarter decisions about the tools they choose. Whether you’re building from the ground up or optimizing what you already have, this conversation will help you understand what really matters in a security stack, and why a proactive approach beats reactive firefighting every time.

More businesses are in the cloud than ever—but are they secure? This week, we dive into the growing risks hiding in SaaS platforms like Microsoft 365 and Google Workspace. From token theft to invisible shadow users, we’re asking the tough questions about what your current stack might be missing.

Email is still the #1 entry point for cyberattacks, and threat actors are only getting smarter. In this week’s Safety Brief, we’ll explore how modern phishing campaigns are bypassing traditional defenses and how preemptive security flips the model from reactive to truly preventative. Whether you're an MSP, business owner, or end user, this episode will help you understand what’s getting through your inbox and how to stop it before it even starts.

Join us for a critical conversation with Rob Boles, Founder and CEO of BLOKWORX, as we dive deep into "EDR Killers"—the sophisticated malicious tools that are systematically dismantling endpoint security defenses before launching devastating attacks. With ransomware surging 126% and these weapons succeeding nearly half the time, Rob breaks down how attackers are weaponizing legitimate security tools, exploiting vulnerable drivers through BYOVD attacks, and why traditional detection methods are failing. As a cybersecurity veteran with two decades of experience building prevention-first solutions, Rob shares real-world examples from recent campaigns and provides actionable strategies for stopping these silent assassins before they can execute. This is an episode you won't want to miss if you're responsible for protecting endpoints in today's threat landscape.

In this episode of the Safety Brief, we dive into the surge of cyberattacks disrupting airlines and the broader transportation sector. From Scattered Spider’s high-profile breaches to ransomware that grounds flights, we unpack who’s behind these attacks, why airlines are such attractive targets, and what ripple effects these incidents have across passengers and global supply chains. We’ll also explore what critical infrastructure leaders should prioritize right now to stay ahead of evolving threats. Tune in for practical insights that go beyond the headlines.

This week, we’re excited to be joined by Kelsey, our Partner Success Advocate, as we dive into how we can better support and empower our partners through a security-first approach. With the cybersecurity landscape continuing to evolve, our enablement strategy must equip partners not only with knowledge, but with confidence to lead proactive conversations. We’ll explore what’s working, where gaps may exist, and how we can elevate partner success through strategic support and smart tools.

In cybersecurity, the most successful outcomes are often invisible—breaches that never occurred, ransomware that never deployed, data that wasn't stolen. This creates a fundamental challenge: how do you demonstrate the value of prevention-focused security investments when the best result is "nothing happened"? In this episode, we'll explore practical frameworks for quantifying the ROI of security prevention, translating technical protection into business value, and communicating effectively with decision-makers who control the budgets. We'll break down real-world approaches to measuring cybersecurity prevention success beyond just compliance checkboxes and reactive metrics.
