Introduction I recently joined Stephen Foskett from Gestalt IT on a video podcast to discuss “Improving AI with Transfer Learning”. This podcast is part of a series of podcasts on “Utilizing AI”.

COVID-19 and its security ramifications continue in 2021 and well beyond. All of the threats brought to the fore when we were sent to work from home got added to the already-growing set of risks we were already trying to mitigate.

Cloud technology has become indispensable for many organizations, however there are common mistakes and misconceptions that you should be aware of in order to keep your data secure, even as it travels off premises.
Digital transformation (DX) is the natural evolution of traditional business operations allowing organizations to capitalize on the full capabilities of our technological advancements, meet consumer expectations and keep competitors at bay (or at least be on par with them).

2020 was another troubling year in the cybersecurity world. We saw a repeat of 2019’s data breaches on a larger scale. Instagram, TikTok, YouTube, Nintendo, WaWa, and many more fell victim to some sort of compromise.
A black swan event is an incident that is unpredictable and has widespread ramifications – and, after it occurs, many say it actually was predictable.
