Yes. Absolutely anytime you like. Not sure why you’d want to, but we’re popular enough that we won’t be too upset. And as we’ve got subscribers across the globe (we’re working on an Antarctic presence too!) we hope we’ll manage to carry on. I mean… we’ll miss you, but it’s not the end of the world. Oh, and because we are global, we adhere to GDPR and CCPA so we nuke any records that you even exist. I mean, if you really want us to do that… But we hope you don’t want to leave at all.

Absolutely! There is a non-recorded function within our platform, but attendees need to be on time and not be disruptive. Just request additional attendees at least 24 hours before the Interview, and we can provide a special link to these people.

Not really – if you can attend a video conference, you’ll be fine. Of course, the better quality the microphone and camera, the better the end result. The easiest way is to try and get access to a dedicated webcam and external mic (rather than those built-in to a laptop) to provide the best end result.

‍Recommended Microphones:

• ‍Blue Yeti
• ‍Blue Snowball
• ‍Samson Go
• ‍Rode Podcaster‍

Depending on  the format, you may or may not need a camera – KBKast, for instance, only really requires a microphone. If, however, you’re recording a Challenger Interview, a WebKast, or a custom film project, a stand-alone camera is always going to give better results.

Recommended Cameras:

• ‍Logitech C920
• ‍Logitech C922
• ‍Logitech C270

KBI.Media – the site you’re on right this very moment – is merely the media arm of KBI. Our sister company, KBI.Digital creates amazing content for our clients as well as for us here on the media (AKA, smarter, better looking, and generally more wonderful) side of the wall.

You’ll receive a link during the scheduling process and set as your ‘location’ inside your calendar.

Please only access Riverside in Chrome browser.
Recordings will not work in Incognito mode.
Do not use a VPN – the platform won’t work.

Ther format only really works with the host and one other person. The purpose is to provide a short, succint presentation, and too many people creates too many opportunities for tangents and a lack of clarity. Additional people can join the recording session, but they will be in an Audience role where they can hear, but aren’t recorded.

We do not live stream any interviews unless specifically requested. Everything is recorded, edited, approved, and only then do we deploy this recording.

We may ask you to re-record on a rare occasion if we think the final output doesn’t meet our quality standards.

Please ensure that your laptop and phone are turned off or put on silent to avoid background noise from alerts during the recording.

Our Sponsors get a little more wiggle room in terms of the content we’ll publish on the site, but the cardinal rule is that whatever it is, whatever format it’s in, and no matter who produced it, it must add value to the industry. While this is a largely subjective standard, it’s our site, so we’ll do whatever we like ultimately! But we are fair. For more information, you can read our Publishing Policy to get into the nitty gritty.

As the media arm of KBI, this division is responsible for the distribution of written, audio, and film content we create for our clients, and working with other media channels to maximise the reach and impact of everything we do.

Our team at KBI are domain experts across the marketing and communications disciplines and security. Every member of our leadership team has years of experience at the coalface of the security industry, and our consultants and media specialists must have a background inside technology. This means that the content we create, the commentary and support around it, and our understanding of the drivers and decision-making of the tech community – particularly the leadership – make KBI unique.

There are two divisions within the company: KBI.Digital and KBI.Media, each with a different focus and different responsibilities. While KBI.Digital is focused on digital marketing and creates amazing content for our clients, KBI.Media is responsible for the distribution, hosting, and public outreach leveraging that content to get it in front of the right audiences.

Karissa Breen, or KB as she’s better known, is a serial entrepreneur focused on the technology space.

As an ex-tech, KB saw fundamental issues with the way in which cybersecurity was trying to engage with people both inside the industry, but more importantly, to external audiences.

Having worked on the front-lines of both executive communications and cybersecurity, she founded KBI to help global enterprises better frame and develop their engagement strategies. Whether marketing, internal communications, or media, KBI is 100% focused on helping tech companies communicate better.
