About the Show

The cybersecurity show for the people who don't have a CISO.

Cybersecurity Cafe demystifies enterprise-grade security for owners and operators. Each episode unpacks a real threat — ransomware, vendor risk, insurance, compliance — and translates it into the two or three concrete moves a small team can make this quarter.

Pillar I

No jargon

Conversational, plain-language explanations of how attacks actually work.

Pillar II

Real threats

Drawn from breach reports, not vendor whitepapers or imagined scenarios.

Pillar III

Defense first

Every episode ends with what to do Monday morning. Always.

The Syllabus

What you'll actually learn.

Ransomware Readiness

Backups that actually restore, segmentation, and tabletop drills you can run in an hour.

Vendor & Supply-Chain Risk

How to vet the people who already have your data — without a procurement team.

Zero Trust on a Budget

Identity, MFA, conditional access, and the smallest-possible footprint that earns the name.

Compliance Without the Theatre

CMMC, HIPAA, NIST — separating the paperwork from the actual controls that move the needle.

Incident Response

The first 60 minutes after detection. What to say, who to call, and what never to do.

Cyber Insurance, Decoded

How underwriters think, what they actually pay for, and the questionnaire trap to avoid.

The host

Raffi Jamgotchian.

Twenty-five years inside the wire.

Raffi is the founder of Triada Networks, a New York–area firm that has spent two decades hardening the IT stacks of hedge funds, family offices and the kind of financial firms that get audited for sport.

He's a CISSP, an FBI InfraGard member, and a frequent voice on cybersecurity for the small and mid-sized businesses that the industry routinely ignores — the ones that can't afford a SOC but can't afford to lose a week to ransomware either.

"The threat models that protect a billion-dollar fund are the same ones your accountant needs. We just have to translate them."

By Raffi Jamgotchian

Guarding the Vault.

Cybersecurity for investment firms facing regulators, client security, and real-world attacks.

Being secure isn't enough. You have to be defensible.Your firm faces three threats that can walk through the door unannounced — a regulator demanding proof, an investor running due diligence, and a hacker looking for the one gap you missed.

chapter I

Tools aren't enough

Why buying the right product still leaves you exposed.

chapter II

What they look for

What regulators and investors are actually checking.

chapter III

Built to hold up

A program that survives scrutiny — without overspending.

Written for alternative asset managers, RIAs, and wealth advisors — by Raffi Jamgotchian, founder of Triada Networks and trusted cybersecurity partner to SEC-regulated firms since 2008.
