From smart home devices and industrial sensors to autonomous systems and edge gateways, billions of connected devices now operate closer to where data is generated, and often outside traditional information security (InfoSec) boundaries. This shift toward edge computing creates a basic cybersecurity challenge i.e. cyberattack attack

I find it strange that today, if I am an IT executive, Technical Program Manager, PM, or Dev Manager, I am increasingly likely to face a familiar scenario; projects that once took months are now expected to be completed in weeks, “just deploy AI and results will follow”, even under aggressive deadlines. This expectation creates

Recently, while researching on another AI topic, I noticed something interesting. Nearly every discussion is centered on AI models, GPUs, data, or prompting techniques, yet very few acknowledged technologies quietly connecting all of these pieces together. It became increasingly clear that every impressive AI capability, from drafting an email to generating an image or retrieving
