Headed to #DellTechWorld next week to hear the latest about @Dell #PowerProtect portfolio and to engage the ecosystem built around #DataDomain, including @Commvault , @DruvaInc , @HYCUInc , @IBM, and @Wasabi_Cloud. I'll let you know what we talked about. linkedin.com/posts/dataprot…

"Single control plane" — real differentiator or marketecture? The answer determines whether your vendor stays relevant as AI and #CyberResilience reshapes the market. Here's how’s to tell the difference. linkedin.com/posts/dataprot…

Excellence in the workplace is high worship. God gives us gifts to use in our vocation that we can either ignore or embrace — and the difference matters not just to us, but to all those whom He planned to be beneficiaries of it. #TwoMinuteMondays linkedin.com/posts/jasonbuf…

Kaseya’s CEO unveiled Kaseya Intelligence + OneAPI at #KaseyaConnect26—connecting data across its stack to unlock MSP value and strengthen cyber resilience across Unitrends, Datto, and Spanning. linkedin.com/posts/dataprot…

As #KaseyaConnect26 winds down, here are some of my favorite takeaway quotes from @Kaseya’s attendees and senior leadership linkedin.com/posts/dataprot…

MSP conversations keep circling backup, DR, and scaling services. At #KaseyaConnect26, I’m watching Unitrends, Datto, and Spanning for BCDR, cyber resilience, and AI. linkedin.com/posts/dataprot…

Everything seems to be ‘AI-Enhanced’ these days. So, here are the six questions that I ask #DataProtection vendors when we talk about where AI fits within their solution stacks; today or in their roadmap. linkedin.com/posts/dataprot…

A couple weeks ago, I added to the core of my daily prayers from just the gratefulness of what I have to asking “What more is there that you would have for me?” Here’s how it turned out. #TwoMinuteMondays linkedin.com/posts/jasonbuf…

IGEL might be the most interesting business continuity technology you haven't considered yet. Isolation protocols break endpoint access—and most plans don’t solve it. That gap is what drew my attention at #IGEL's Now & Next 2026 -- here are my takeaways. linkedin.com/pulse/when-iso…

Conversations keep circling back: who will lead #DataProtection in the next few years — and why is the market shifting? linkedin.com/posts/dataprot…

Have you ever done a mental fast? No phones, no books, no naps, just you. Let’s talk about the little voices that never get heard. #TwoMinuteMondays linkedin.com/posts/jasonbuf…

Certes exposed a gap most teams miss: unprotected server to server data flows. Attackers are harvesting now to decrypt later and backups or DR won’t help. Who owns this risk? linkedin.com/posts/dataprot…

A year ago, I went from VX to “XV” — my first year not being someone else’s employee. Here’s what I learned in year one of this new chapter. #WhatYouMiss #WhatYouDont #TwoMinuteMondays linkedin.com/posts/jasonbuf…

Not all conferences are created equal. Here’s what DRJ Spring 2026 gets right—and why it matters. #disasterrecovery #cyberresilience #businesscontinuity linkedin.com/posts/dataprot…

Operational resilience is evolving, and we need to be ready. That is why I'm speaking at CIMC 2026 in Phoenix, April 27-29. My session: Top 5 IT Obstacles to Ensuring Operational Resilience #BusinessContinuity #DisasterRecovery #CyberResilience i.snoball.it/p/25FhpnEw/t/8

Most people say “let me know if I can help.” One leader said something way smarter—and it changed the entire conversation. #TwoMinuteMondays linkedin.com/posts/jasonbuf…

Don’t sacrifice protection while you’re modernizing production. Two years after #Broadcom changed the #vSphere licensing & the fervor of an exodus started, let’s revisit how it turned out - #DisasterRecovery #CyberResilience #hypervisors #hyperscale linkedin.com/posts/dataprot…

Say what you ought to say before you can’t. None of us are guaranteed any tomorrows, so who do you need to say ‘thank you’ to today? #TwoMinuteMondays linkedin.com/posts/jasonbuf…

The Official Cybersecurity Summit is one of my top single-stage conference series, esp this year w/ four #DataProtection vendors showing on the expo floor – w/ special kudos to Rubrik & Commvault for interesting discussions on #CyberResilience & more. linkedin.com/posts/dataprot…

The fate of your organization rests in the hands of your technical ‘first responders’ for #CyberResilience and #DisasterRecovery. Do they all know the plan? #TwoMinuteMondays linkedin.com/posts/jasonbuf…
