Cisco Uk & Ireland

Cloud is a fluffy subject (get it?) which I don’t know a lot about, so @m_jacks76 suggested we get in our resident cloud expert Creg Page to explain it to us both. We talk about all things big data, automation, data analytics and how it can help businesses and organisations digitise. Earphones in and let me know what you think - @justinwoolen!

We are so lucky in Cisco as we have some really clever people working here, and Steve Kirk CCIE is defiantly one of them. He challenged me to explain all I know about IP version 6...which I couldn’t...so instead I asked him to join me and on the Cisco UKI tech podcast. Have a listen and see if you can work out what IPv6 is!

Wi-Fi is so much more than connecting to the internet (and looking at funny cat videos social media), it can do so much more. In this episode I am joined by Wi-Fi Guru Brett Martin @brett_martin1 to explain how businesses and organisations can get more out of Wi-Fi by using analytics. Put your headphones on and have a listen, and let me know what you think @justinwoolen.

There has been a lot going on in the world of IT regarding Software Defined Networking (SDN.) As this is a topic I don’t know a lot about I decided to ask three Cisco experts to explain it to me. They talk me through what SDN is and how it can help IT become more agile, which can’t be a bad thing. Have a listen and let me know what you think.

In this episode we have a very special guest - we are joined by Dr Alison Vincent (@draliv) Cisco’s CTO in the UK and Ireland. She explains what a Smart City is, and how technology is helping deliver better services to the public...even making sure that your bins get emptied on time! You can find out more about Smart Cities here - http://www.cisco.co.uk/neverbetter

This time we are joined by our regular contributor Mark Jackson @m_jacks76. He's been busy attending security conferences (and other top secret activities) and has some great topics to share with us on both the “CyberUK In Practice” conference as well as “InfoSec”.

In this podcast I am joined again by Security Guru Mark Jackson @M_Jacks76 and Oli Wong @Oliver_Cisco_SE where we continue our network security discussion, and talk about how network security policy enforcement can be a fundamental part of an overall IT security strategy.

Cyber Security seems to be in the headlines everyday and in this podcast I am joined by our Security Guru Mark Jackson @M_Jacks76 and 1st time contributor Oli Wong @Oliver_Cisco_SE. We're discussing how you can enhance your network to help defend your organisation against cyber attacks.

Energy costs are rising so what can we do about it? Well, in this podcast I am joined by regular contributor Mark Jackson and John Clifford from Cisco’s Energy Management team. We discuss how can IT help in managing and reducing energy cost for organisations. Enjoy!

Cyber security is always changing with new attacks emerging all the time. The big new malware to hit is RANSOMWARE which encrypts a computer, leaving the owner to pay to get access to their files. To find out more about Ransomware and what businesses, people and organisations can do about it I am talking to regular contributor and security guru Mark Jackson @m_jacks76.

In this episode of the Cisco Technology Podcast we're joined by regular contributor Mark Jackson as well as Lee Davies, our resident routing expert. We are discussing what the Wide Area Network of the future look like through using the internet instead of more traditional MPLS. This may sound strange to many of you, so have a listen and see what Cisco is getting up to in this space...

Join us for part 2 as we continue to chat to our Wi-Fi Experts; Brett Martin and Jason Tyler. They share their knowledge of wifi, and I ask them questions on how Wi-Fi actually works, how you make Wi-Fi work really well, and things you need to watch out for.

Wi-Fi is such a common technology at home and in the workplace. In this podcast I am joined by two of our Wi-Fi Experts; Brett Martin and Jason Tyler. They share their knowledge of wifi, and I ask them questions on how Wi-Fi actually works, how you make Wi-Fi work really well, and things you need to watch out for. As we have so much to talk about we've made this episode into two parts. The next will be here shortly!

Making Staff more mobile is key to increasing productivity and one technology that helps to enable this is Wi-Fi.
