Thanking the opponents and thanking the referees is a nice touch. Thanking Elverys...meh. The earlier thanking of Centra etc. is a bit 🥴 I get it but when there is such a big deal about it being amateur, leave the money interests to the side. They get enough advertising out of their sponsorships.

Patch speed isn't a security awareness problem, it's a packaging capacity problem. 48,000+ CVEs in 2025, exploits within hours, yet legacy pipelines take days to patch. @rorymon.com talks how Cloudpager's AI Packaging closes the gap, apps encrypted and visible only to entitled users.

Packaging is a one time cost. Instability after deployment is a recurring one. Traditional installers modify the OS in place, updates fail or conflict, and support overhead mounts. @rorymon.com walks through where the real cost lives and what containerization does to that picture.

Most disaster recovery plans solve for the desktop. The applications are where they fall apart. @rorymon.com makes the case that provisioning a Cloud PC is only half the job. The other half? Containerization delivers apps at login, so people are working in minutes.

Application conflicts cost more than most teams realize. Not just the app itself, but the disparate environments, VDI images, and infrastructure sprawl that follow. @rorymon.com walks through what that actually looks like and how containerization fixes it at the root.
