In The Studio with CRN: Piracy and the Channel

Friday, August 7th, 2009

In July 2009 I was asked by Computer Reseller News to participate in a videoed interview.

I was joined by FAST IiS member Chris Hibbert, SAM General Manager at VAR Bytes Technology Group and interviewed by CRN reporter Kayleigh Bateman. We discussed what effect piracy is having on the channel, the laws that protect copyright material and best practices for organisations to ensure they are never accused of copyright infringement.

18-minute video offers valuable advice on how to implement a proper software asset management strategy and how to avoid Trading Standards and vendor software audits.
