Revving Up the Fun: DNSFilter's IndyCar Experience Recap — Toronto Edition
by Alina Gordilova on Jul 22, 2024 3:23:39 PM
First raced in 1918, the Toronto Grand Prix is an exciting and long-standing IndyCar tradition. With 11 turns winding through downtown Toronto, including a particularly tight final curve, this street course always lends to a competitive and unpredictable race.
Our weekend with the Juncos Hollinger Racing team and No. 77 driver Romain Grosjean was greatly enhanced by the company of our co-hosts, Pax8, and guests from Sourcepass, allCare IT, PACE Technical, Teamlogic, and Fidelity IT Solutions! We kicked the weekend off with a VIP meet and greet in the Juncos Hollinger Racing Hospitality suite, followed by an exclusive tour of the Juncos Hollinger Racing garage.
For the big event, DNSFilter, Pax8, and guests hung out in pit lane where we got up close and personal with the street course and all of the hard work that goes into ensuring a strong race. We also want to highlight that our friends at eero have joined us as sponsors of the No. 77 Chevrolet, with their logo prominent on the car.
Romain Grosjean started the race in 5th position, his best start of the season. Romain held strong in the top 10 for most of the race, expertly navigating around multiple crashes and safety periods. He fell back to 18th position after a long pit stop but worked his way back up to finish strong at 9th position. Romain’s expert handling of the No. 77 Chevrolet never ceases to impress!
Romain’s take on the race: “Another top 10. That was not an easy day. We had a bit of an issue on a pit stop, but I think we can be happy with our weekend. We recovered well after a hard fight.”

Earlier this month I joined Mikey Pruitt, our Global Partner Evangelist, on the DNSFilter podcast dnsUNFILTERED to discuss my 2025 cybersecurity predictions. We had a lot of fun and covered all of the points I’ll outline here, but I wanted to go deeper. My 30 years of cybersecurity experience have given me a strong sense of where we’re heading as an industry—the shift to the cloud in many ways is a precursor in the adoption of AI and the future...
Most businesses only think about DNS security after an attack has already occurred. By then, the damage is done - downtime, lost revenue, compromised data, and a tarnished reputation. In an environment where cyber threats are constantly evolving, a reactive approach to DNS security simply isn’t enough.
Customer experience is the secret sauce that sets successful Managed Service Providers (MSPs) apart from the rest.

A stellar customer experience can transform a one-time client into a loyal advocate, while a poor one can send them running to your competitors. According to a ...
