2024-04-07 11:39 Quite a lot to cover in this episode, so I wanted to bring two experts on board, Mary and Michael, with different angles of approach. Mary Prohova is the founder and CEO of Inev Flab and also the cofounder of Sevi five, which is specialized in cybersecurity product.

2024-04-07 11:52 But obviously, when you start with this first layer and actually this fifth layer that Mary described, using that much personal equipment might be good for the planet, might be good for environment, but that causes some issues with cybersecurity.

2024-04-07 11:56 But on the other hand, what you also say is in general and the devil in the details, but in general, the older the better in terms of cybersecurity.

2024-04-07 15:45 First, I would be remiss if I didn’t say that there’s a lot of really interesting things happening on both the security side and the sustainability side within the Nordics. I’ve been working on the Nordics for the past two years. The nordic data center sector is growing exponentially and it’s combining a lot of really good natural features such as its cold climate, with really good people who are working on things like integrating data center heat waste into the district utility grids who are working on a lot of innovation.
