Did SonicOS 7.3 Stop Akira? (EP 895)

Uncle Marv's IT Business Podcast (Real Talk for IT Pros & MSPs)

After conversations with Cory Clark of SonicWall and Reddit’s MSP community, I lay out the facts and why poor practices—not firewalls—are usually the weak link. I also share my hands-on Ubiquiti deployments (cameras, gateways, doorbells), how Cable Finder through Telarus helped me sign two clients on the spot, and review the CoolPie 3-in-1 SSD Cloner for NVMe drives. And yes—another Florida Man story.
