Reading takes hours.
The research
Reports, analysis, frameworks. The slow, deep way to understand a market. It has always existed, and it always will. But nobody reads at the speed the market moves.
Meet Prateek Bhajanka
Prateek is not a media personality who learned security. He is a security practitioner and former Gartner analyst who picked up a microphone, and he asks vendors the questions buyers actually have.
