    How did ScalaHosting grow from a small early-2000s project into a global hosting company? What has really changed in the hosting industry since then?

In this episode, Vlad Georgiev, founder of ScalaHosting, shares his journey from starting in hosting at the age of 13 to building a global company serving customers in more than 120 countries. We talk about how the industry evolved, why money was never the main goal, and how focusing on real customer needs leads to long-term success.

    Why has phishing become a bigger threat than spam? How are attackers using AI to improve their success rate? Why do WordPress sites get compromised so often? And how can hosting companies deliver good email while blocking abuse? In this episode, Ken Simpson, founder and CEO of MailChannels, explains how the email landscape has changed and why hosting companies are dealing with more pressure than ever. We talk about real fraud cases, the rise of automated attacks, and the growing need to analyse sender behaviour instead of relying on simple rules.
