I think the average wireless keyboard is likely far more secure than the average wired one. How easy is it to tap a standard keyboard? Not hard at all. SO easy, even if you are using RF externally. A wireless one might not be hard, but it is not as easy as the wired ones.
Most have encryption too these days.

Agreed. I think a SMB a lot of times may not have the in-house expertise (experience?) necessary to properly maintain / update the production environment.
FTFY
Most SMBs that I see lack the skills that I generally assume are a minimum bar for running internal IT.

Exactly, that's why. That they do anything makes them many times more secure.

Trying to follow along. I came it to see what was going on and found it pretty busy.

How are you guys doing over in London?

Great. Weather is nice and having a good time at the conference. Quite busy now that the sessions are really underway.
-
I'm leading the pub crawl tonight, so looking forward to that!

Any good sessions so far?
-
I've only attended the one so far.
But Unitrends announcing new free stuff is pretty exciting. -

But Unitrends announcing new free stuff is pretty exciting.That seems like a pretty light session load.
-
Yeah, I tend to get busy and not have very much time for the official sessions.
-
Networking seems to have a much higher value than attending sessions, and a great time to really develop relationships with vendors.

The vendor time is a huge deal. If you talk to them during sessions you get time to actually talk not just walk by and smile.

I think this is what I missed the last I went down. Really need to amp up the networking effort.

It's a social media conference more than anything. It is ALL about the networking.

Planning to take my old 4k/6k video editing machine (the HP z820) with 192GB ram and 24 Cores and make a mean Hyper-V system out of it for home use. Then test Unitrends.
-
Nice. My home desktop is still a triple core, 6GB machine.
-
Hoping that that will change in a year, but with the way that things are currently it is not very likely.
