Welcome to Ujaley’s Podcast, where we discuss the latest trends in technology with industry leaders. Today, we are diving into a hot topic that has been making waves: the risks of forced updates in proprietary software, especially after the recent hiccups with Microsoft and CrowdStrike.
Forced updates are those changes that tech companies push to your systems without asking you first. They can mess things up big time, like we have seen recently—from airport operation to dial 100 to critical healthcare services—all went for a toss, thanks to a single line of code going haywire
We have Dr. Doug Milburn, President and Founder of 45Drives, here to explain why unchecked updates can be risky and why businesses might want to consider open-source technologies for better control over their systems.
Dr. Milburn will share his own experiences, including how his company was affected twice in one week by these updates. He will also provide tips on keeping systems secure and reliable during constant changes.
So, stick around! We have got a lot to cover, and you would not like to miss it.
