123 - 7/1 - Rob Winter, former CISO of Boulder Community Health

To celebrate his life, and mourn his passing, we are replaying our interview with Rob Winter, CISO of Boulder Community Health as our feature interview this week. News from: A-LIGN, Ping Identity, Circadence, Coalfire, Qualys, Telstra, CyberGRX and a lot more!

Denver is one of two finalists for the Medal of Honor Museum. No, not the video game

Denver or Arlington will be the home of the new Medal of Honor Museum. We’re rooting for Denver. Telluride is the best small town in America, but Steamboat Springs and Breck aren’t too bad either. Breaking news: Colorado’s new blockchain leader says there are ‘endless’ uses for blockchain in the government. Go figure. 5G is live in Denver, but you probably can’t use it. Women in tech is getting serious. A-LIGN comes to Denver in force. Ping Identity had a big week at Identiverse. Circadence is looking to gamify security training. Coalfire partners with Qualys. Telstra (big telco in Australia) invests in CyberGRX. And we replay last year’s interview with Rob Winter to honor his memory.
