With less than one month until NerdioCon, our speakers are getting super pumped, including Nerdio Valued Professional (NVP) Patrick Coble! A recognized expert in VDI and security, Patrick has spent years auditing VDI deployments and identifying key security gaps.
We sat down with Patrick to get a preview of his session and learn why NerdioCon is an event you just can’t miss.
“What will NerdioCon attendees take away from your session?”
“VDI, AVD, clouds, and Windows aren’t necessarily secure by default,” says Patrick. “Security can’t be an afterthought, but a built-in part of your deployment process. You must put in the work to truly lock them down.”
But no need to worry! Patrick will explore the security gaps that often slip through the cracks in VDI, AVD, and Cloud PC environments and the steps to fortify your systems. If you’re working with VDI or cloud environments, this is a session you can’t afford to skip.
“What makes NerdioCon stand out from other events?”
This year will be Patrick’s first time at NerdioCon, and he’s already excited. “It’s not just about sitting in sessions. It’s about the connections, the conversations, and those moments outside of the official events where the real magic happens,” Patrick says.
He’s especially looking forward to the “lobby talk” at NerdioCon—time to let loose, exchange ideas, and connect with other experts. “There’s no cap on this time, and the ideas that come from these discussions are worth their weight in gold,” Patrick explains. “I’m excited to meet other professionals, learn from them, and talk through what’s really working in VDI and security.”
