I was watching a wonderful webcast by Marie Forleo. It was part of her “Copy Cure” course, and if you are unfamiliar with Marie and her work, take the time to explore some of her wisdom. Her webcasts are gems, particularly if you work in the consulting space.

Among security professionals, one way to identify a breach or spurious entity is to detect anomalies and abnormalities in customer’ usage trend. At Google, we use Forseti, a community-driven collection of open-source tools to improve the security of Google Cloud Platform (GCP) environments.

Cybersecurity is aimed at protecting the company’s digital assets against the ever-growing cyber-attacks.

The world enabled by 5G is on the horizon. AT&T and Verizon have already started rolling out their 5G networks, using a combination of new and existing technologies, such as WiFi, LTE, etc. These 5G networks promise speeds north of 10Gbps, which means they are capable of delivering an online experience that is at least 1000 times faster than what we are used to today, with 4G.
Every visionary business wants to onboard the best of the best when it comes to talent.
