On The Up: Amputee raising money by walking 42km in a single day
'It introduced a bunch of minor inconveniences, like only going upstairs one step at a time, for example, and walking long distances. 'It takes above-knee amputees anywhere from 40-70% more energy to walk the same distance.' Cashmore said during his recovery and adjustment period, he 'kept a positive mindset'. 'This resulted in me being able to excel with prosthetics very quickly compared to the average person. 'I am always going to be thankful I never let it get the best of me,' he said. Cashmore is participating in the Heart Foundation's MyMarathon initiative and will be walking from the southernmost point in Tauranga to the base of Mauao, then to the end of Papamoa. MyMarathon challenged participants to walk or run 42km during May to raise funds for heart research and to help save lives. He hoped his walk inspired others who struggled with their mobility to push themselves. 'A lot of people, especially amputees, fall into despair when it comes to their mobility and give up when they are capable of so much more than they realise. 'For a long while, I couldn't even manage a walk to the dairy around the corner, now I'm doing quite well.' Having never done anything like this before, in preparation Cashmore had been swapping his usual strength and bodybuilding training for cardio until he felt he was at an acceptable level. He said there was no mental preparation, just a 'strong will and can-do attitude'. 'Anybody can make a difference, and to all my new amputees that may be struggling with their recovery, be patient, keep trying and never give up, you will get to where you want to be. 'I just hope that I can inspire other people to make a sacrifice to do some good in the world.' Cashmore will finish his walk mid-May and hoped to get as much support as possible. 'I reached out to Ottobock, the company that makes my prosthetic leg I currently use, and they are going to help me get my message out. 'If I'm lucky, I will be able to use their new top-of-the-line microprocessor knee for the duration of the walk, which would make my journey much easier.' Ottobock will be sponsoring Cashmore's mission, and any additional support can be given via the MyMarathon website by searching his name. His advice to others facing adversity or considering taking on a challenge is to 'give it your best shot'. 'Test your limits, push yourself, don't let a mental obstacle stop you from achieving your goals,' he said. 'Worst case, you will find out what you are capable of.'

RMM pioneer outranks competition in leadership and earns praise for the strong technological capability of its RMM offering BURLINGTON, Mass., January 28, 2025--(BUSINESS WIRE)--N‑able, Inc. (NYSE: NABL), a global software company helping IT services providers deliver remote monitoring and management, data protection as-a-service, and security solutions, today announced it has been awarded Champion Status for the second consecutive time in the 2024 Canalys RMM and PSA Leadership Matrix. According to the prestigious matrix, a Champion demonstrated the highest levels of excellence in channel and technology capability over the last 12 months compared with their industry peers, as rated by channel partners and Canalys analysts. N-able obtained the highest leadership score out of the Champions and was praised for the strong technological capability of its RMM offering. "N-able is focused on the success of its partners, and it shows in everything they innovate around and bring to market to better our business," said Paul Cashmore, co-founder of Solace Global Cyber.

"It's great to see Canalys celebrate the roles people and platforms play in the success of the MSSP," continues Cashmore. "N-able is a great example of a vendor who listens and invests to enable us to become a leader in Incident Response. Congrats to the team on your repeat recognition." The Canalys RMM and PSA Leadership Matrix focuses on vendors active in the MSP channel. The minimum qualification criteria for vendors are threefold: at least US$10 million in annual RMM and/or PSA revenue, an established sales model for engaging MSPs, and 50 percent of the company's revenue must come from the channel. Analyst assessment, ecosystem feedback, and performance metrics are then used as metrics to determine a ranking. Canalys defines RMM as software that provides remote monitoring and management for endpoints. PSA is defined as software that allows a company to manage projects, billing, provisioning, and other services related to a customer's IT estate.
