Today's episode focuses on disasters, which is unfortunately a very appropriate topic. As a quick refresher, our family had a fire a few months ago. It sucked. I talked about the day of the fire in this episode then did a "how do we get back on the grid?" episode here and then answered some of your FAQs here.

Regardless of if your DR plan includes fires, virus outbreaks, tornados or zombie attacks, it's important to have a solid plan for your family and business. So in today's episode I cover these main two topics:

A DIY $500 NAS + Unlimited Cloud Backup Plan

In trying to be more organized with my backup strategy, I set out to create a new backup plan with the following criteria:

7MS #58: What Should We Do First? (audio)

At the end of just about every assessment I deliver, the client asks “What should we do first?” They (understandably) want to know a “top 5″ list of things they should change right away to improve their security posture. Today’s episode explores that a bit. 7MS #58: What Should We Do Next? (audio)

If you’re concerned about your credit/debit card security, you might want to give Red Giant a try. It’s a service that provides a debit card you can unlock *only* when buying something. It’s cool. Oh, and Red Giant is NOT sponsoring this episode. If I ever get sponsors, I’ll disclose them clearly. :-) 7MS #54:…
