Media companies of all shapes and sizes are being increasingly targeted by ransomware. Unlike many other victims, loss of data invariably means loss of content in some form. However, for the media industry, content is the very essence of the business.

NAB 2019 Review

We’re all back and recovered from NAB!

Although overall NAB registrations were down by 1.6% to 91,460. We really bucked this downward trend and our contacts are up year on year by 17.5% of which 48% were all new contacts. For any exhibitor these are a cracking set of figures, despite an epic hike to the back of the south hall.

When people ask me exactly what I and Marquis Broadcast do, I say we make software for television and movie production. The next question is usually, do you know a famous actor, musician, personality? I'm afraid my world is more ordinary than that, often about resolving mind bending, complex integrations. Nothing too sexy or exciting, just making things work for the journalists, producers and creatives of the world. Some people also know of us for our big enterprise integrations for broadcasters and studios.
