How collaboration technology defines the next phase of hybrid work

As agents move past demos and into enterprise workflows, organizations are confronting the governance, infrastructure and operational problems posed by more autonomous AI systems.

Silicon Valley giants have transformed from asset-light cash machines to huge infrastructure investors

As AI accelerates the pace of business, organizations need to move decisions closer to those with intimate knowledge.

Once again, digital tools are running ahead of regulators. Civil liberties must not be sacrificed to policing It is a familiar story. Extravagant claims are made on behalf of novel computerised tools. The public are told that this or that digital application or system is going to change the world for the better. Efficiencies will be unlocked and problems solved as human limitations are overcome by networked devices plugged into vast stores of data. Anyone who questions the narrative is a pessimist or, perhaps, a criminal. This appears to be the logic behind arguments put forward on behalf of one such tool – live facial recognition technology. Law-abiding citizens have “nothing to fear” from the police’s increased reliance on mounted cameras, said the Home Office minister, Sarah Jones, last month, after a high court challenge brought on human rights and privacy grounds failed. The use of AI-powered identification software, made by the Japanese company NEC, “only locates specifically wa

He built fault-tolerant infrastructure for 100,000+ users in finance and healthcare before the first user arrived. Here is the sequencing framework that kept those systems running, and what enterprise AI teams are getting wrong by doing it in reverse.  Most enterprise AI systems do not fail because the model was wrong. They fail because the […]

The organizations that get the most from agentic AI will be those that understand the threat model clearly enough to design against it.

From Salt Lake City to New York City, parents are demanding more sway over the digital tools that schools give children.

For years, meeting room technology was evaluated primarily on ease of use and audiovisual quality. If people could walk in, plug in, and start presenting, the job was considered done. That mindset no longer holds. Today’s meeting rooms are deeply connected to digital environments, and security has become a business-critical concern rather than a technical afterthought.  According to IDC, 50.8% of organizations now rank security as the most important factor when selecting collaboration and videoconferencing technology, ahead of price or quality considerations. That shift reflects a broader reality: what happens in meeting rooms has direct implications for data protection, regulatory compliance, operational resilience, and corporate trust.  The meeting room as an expanded attack surface  Hybrid work has fundamentally changed the role of the meeting room. It is no longer a closed, isolated space. Instead, it has become a convergence point where corporate networks, cloud services, collabor
