Why Protecting Data Centers Requires A Personalized Security Approach

Since each industry has its own unique security and privacy needs, businesses should work with security providers to vet their services and ensure they’re a vertical fit. Beyond HIPAA and PCI, these can also include standards in government like FISMA and FEDRAMP as well as FERPA in education. For businesses in these industries, partnering with a security provider with background in their respective vertical is a must. Security needs vary from data center to data center, so security providers must do a thorough analysis of all potential risks and threats. These solutions providers should ask hard questions of their customers to truly understand the security level needed. Businesses need to be prepared for a worst-case scenario and determine how they can secure customer data in the event of a disruption. If there’s a power outage, how long can they be down for? If they’re a retail business, what’s the impact on the bottom line if an outage happens on Black Friday? How much damage to a business’ reputation will happen if customer information is leaked in a breach??


ChatGPT’s ‘Perfect Storm’: Managing Risk and Eyeing Transformational Change

At the eye of this storm lies the rapid evolution of ChatGPT’s capabilities, marking the advent of what we refer to as the “Age of AI” or the “Fourth Industrial Revolution.” I shed light on ChatGPT’s transformational capabilities, especially its potential to reshape business operations. In my personal experience, ChatGPT has proven itself valuable in tasks such as drafting initial document versions and creating LinkedIn posts, even suggesting suitable emojis! However, accompanying this storm is a limited understanding of associated risks, further compounded by an absence of a regulatory framework tailored to such advanced AI models and varying levels of organizational preparedness for AI-driven future. ...?It calls for interdisciplinary collaboration involving technological expertise, regulatory compliance, risk management and operational understanding. By ensuring this balanced and holistic approach, organizations can fully exploit the advantages of AI technologies like ChatGPT while mitigating potential risks and pitfalls.


The Six Disruptive Forces That Will Shape Your Business’s Future

Technological advances and digital innovations – the primary driver of growth in the US economy during the past 25 years – will continue to drive new business models and ecosystem relationships. The past few decades witnessed a massive explosion of computing and communications capability, along with the scaling of new business models, and the ability to connect every person on the planet through the internet. The next decade promises even more of this, perhaps exponentially so, driven by technologies such as artificial intelligence, blockchain, 5G networks, and edge computing. ... A proliferation of new communication technologies enabled the widespread adoption of hybrid work models in the wake of the pandemic. Some see this shift in working patterns as an evolutionary step in how work occurs – an incremental change. We see it differently: in our view, remote work represents a step change in how labor markets are organized, raises big questions about productivity, and creates important collateral effects in other areas of the economy.


How to use the new AI writing tool in Google Docs and Gmail

The AI tools in Slides and Sheets are not yet available, but Help Me Write is in limited preview; you can try it out in Google Docs or Gmail on the web by signing up for access to Workspace Labs with your Google account. (You’ll be put on a waitlist before being granted access.) Like the well-known ChatGPT, Help Me Write is a chatbot tool that generates written text based on prompts (instructions) that you give it. Whether you’re a professional writer or someone who dreads having to write for your job, the potential of AI assistance for your writing tasks is appealing. Help Me Write can indeed write long passages of text that are reasonably readable. But its results come with caveats including factual errors, redundancy, and too-generic prose. This guide covers how to use Help Me Write in both Google Docs and Gmail to generate and rewrite text, and how to overcome some of the tool’s shortcomings. Because it’s in preview status, keep in mind that there may be changes to its features, and the results it generates, when it’s finally rolled out to the public.


Winning the Mind Game: The Role of the Ransomware Negotiator

Professional negotiation is the act of taking advantage of the professional communication with the hacker in various extortion situations. The role comprises four key elements:1. Identifying the scope of the event - Takes place within the first 24-48 hours. Includes understanding what was compromised, how deep the attackers are in the system, whether the act is a single, double or triple ransomware, if the attack was financially motivated or if it was a political or personal attack, etc. In 90% of cases, the attack is financially motivated. If it is politically motivated, the information may not be recovered, even after paying the ransom.2. Profiling the threat actor - Includes understanding whether the group is known or unknown, their behavioral patterns and their organizational structure. Understanding who the attacker is influences communication. ... This can be used for improving negotiation terms, like leveraging public holidays to ask for a discount.3. Assessing the "cost-of-no-deal" - Reflecting to the decision makers and the crisis managers what will happen if they don't pay the ransom.


RFI vs. RFP vs. RFQ: What are the differences?

Each document -- a request for information (RFI), a request for proposal (RFP) and a request for quote (RFQ) -- has a distinct purpose when undertaking a significant project, even if some overlap exists. While it's possible to issue all three types of requests for a single project, buying teams will typically only issue one or two of them, given the overlap. ... Software buying teams use a request for information when they want additional information from vendors before finalizing the RFP or RFQ. The buying team may lack clarity on requirements, want more information on available options in the market or need details validated, which the vendors' industry experts can do. ... The RFP will list the requirements in detail, provide a recommended timeline and request pricing from the vendors. The buying team might ask specific questions about the vendor, such as the length of time they've been in business, completion proportion of similar projects, annual sales and number of staff. The RFP response may have mandatory terms to follow, such as a submission due date and other critical information.
