We had an absolute blast in Las Vegas at our first-ever CompTIA ChannelCon! ChannelCon gave us the opportunity to learn more about channel partnerships and also to see what new and innovative technologies are coming onto the scene.
The first day was filled with many great speakers and breakout sessions that we were able to attend. We had an amazing time at our booth and got to talk to a lot of new people about the positives of DNS-based filtering.
We had our first-ever customer event on the first evening of ChannelCon. Thanks to Beer Park for hosting us as we enjoyed dining under the lights of the Miracle Mile. Here we got to really learn more about why our customers stay loyal to us.
The last two days were a blur of conversations, sessions, and great guest speakers. Talking to many new people and introducing our product is something we always enjoy! We got to see a lot of people’s first reactions and impressions of DNSFilter.
Why people at ChannelCon ‘19 loved us:
- We are 25-50% of the cost of Cisco Umbrella
- Simple interface with 24/7 customer support
- Works better and faster than Cisco Umbrella
ChannelCon ‘19 was capped off with an amazing talk with Todd Thibodeaux and Shaquille O’Neal. It was great learning about Shaq’s tech business ventures and also hearing him serenade us with some 1980’s pop hits.
Shaq also left us all with some valuable words of wisdom. One of those was his favorite quote from Bill Gates, which was “Don’t focus on the problem, focus on the solution”. One of his other fantastic quotes was “In leadership, you have to balance tasks with the team relationship. If you focus too much on one then the other one suffers.”
What a great way to round off such an exciting event. If you missed us at ChannelCon, please feel free to contact us at our website to ask any questions or set up a demo!
The Visibility Gap: Why Seeing is the Only Antidote to Shadow IT
Every CISO and security engineer eventually has to face: they no longer own their network.
In the era of the decentralized office, the traditional perimeter hasn't just been breached; it has evaporated. It vanished the moment an employee signed up for an AI tool using their corporate email. It vanished when a department stood up a SaaS suite on a personal credit card. It vanishes every time an employee decides that convenience is more important...
Maximum Protection, Minimum Friction: Announcing DNS PreCheck
In the modern era of the hybrid workforce, the traditional corporate perimeter is a thing of the past. Employees have the freedom to connect from home, airport lounges, international hotels, and everywhere in between. While this is a win for productivity, it can be a headache for IT teams who have zero control over the network configuration.
Securing Airline Public Wi-Fi: Stop Threats With Protective DNS
Public Wi-Fi has become a standard part of modern air travel. Whether streaming content or coordinating travel plans in real time, passengers expect to be connected at the gate, onboard the plane, and throughout their journey.
