About this episode

The episode discusses the essentials of maintaining business operations during cyber threats with insights from Kieran of Evolve Technologies.

In this episode of the Skynet Chronicles, Tim sits down with Kieran, founder of Evolve Technologies, to unpack what it really takes to keep businesses running when cyber threats hit hard. Kieran shares how his team supports clients through a monthly retainer service desk model, alongside telecoms and infrastructure, and why staying hands on still matters. The conversation explores the most common real world breach patterns, from phishing and credential capture to invoice interception, and why security only works when it is applied across the whole organisation. We also touch on AI as both an attacker and defender, the reality of tool costs, and how trust, communication, and change management make or break security outcomes._________________________________________________________________The Skynet Chronicles Podcast is brought to you by Project Rising (AI Consultancy & custom implementation, based in Peterborough UK) | Hosted by Tim Davies. https://projektrising.ai#podcast #AI #AIpodcast #artificialintelligence
