Podcast Overview
🌟 Episode Summary:
What happens when you combine a cybersecurity expert with a volunteer fire chief? You get Tim Weber. 🔥 In this powerful episode recorded live at IT Nation Secure 2025, Joey Pinz dives deep with Tim—Cyber 74’s security leader and lifelong public servant.
🎙️ Tim shares his incredible journey from a 14-year-old fire cadet to assistant chief, and from fixing PCs to leading a $2.5M security practice. He talks candidly about the challenges MSPs face when choosing the right partners, the difference integrity makes in the security world, and why the basics—not flashy tools—win in the long run.
💡 With humor, honesty, and heart, Tim reveals how life, loss, and leadership have shaped him, why he’s still learning from students he teaches, and how a powerful coaching session shifted his entire perspective on self-worth.
🔥 Top 3 Highlights:
- 🔍 Why SMBs are still the most underserved—and most attacked—cyber targets
- 💬 How to choose a vendor partner who actually helps, not sells
- 🧭 Lessons from firefighting that apply to cybersecurity leadership

Please join me, as I speak to interesting people and find out how discipline affects their career, life, goals, and decisions.
