The Art of Pitching and Cybersecurity with Matthew Koenig

Today’s podcast features a conversation with Matthew Koenig from NodeWare, winner of the infamous Steak Knives.

Strap yourselves in as we take a wild ride with our guest Matthew Koenig, a finalist in this year's PitchIT Contest by ConnectWise.

Matthew shares his experience at IT Nation, where NodeWare participated in the PitchIT competition and secured third place. He talks about the valuable feedback he received from the judges and the exposure the competition provided for NodeWare. Matthew also highlights the importance of vulnerability scanning in an MSP's security stack and how NodeWare offers continuous scanning, including IoT devices, as opposed to one-off or monthly scans provided by other products.

The conversation then shifts to the importance of honesty and collaboration in the channel industry, emphasizing the need for vendors and MSPs to work together.

Did we mention Matthew also played in a band?
