CrowdStrike is making a very deliberate bet on where the next cybersecurity battleground will be fought: not in a perimeter appliance, not in a network tunnel, but at the endpoint and the increasingly crowded execution layers around it. The company’s newest Falcon platform innovations extend AI...

AI can promise dramatic workplace transformation — but without role-specific upskilling and governance, that promise quickly turns into an expensive liability that slows people down, increases risk, and buries ROI under a pile of unused licences and fractured workflows. rview The rapid spread of...

Teramind’s new AI Governance platform pushes the enterprise debate from “should we use AI?” to “how will we control it?” and arrives at a moment when unsanctioned AI use — what security teams call shadow AI — is no longer hypothetical but a measurable, enterprise-scale risk. Background AI...

Teramind’s new product announcement marks a deliberate attempt to stitch enterprise-grade governance around the very behaviors that make modern AI useful — prompts, responses, and autonomous actions — and to do so across the entire spectrum of tools employees now use, from sanctioned copilots to...

Teramind’s new AI Governance product lands at a moment when enterprises are moving from curiosity to deployment—and the company stakes a bold claim: for the first time, organizations can apply enterprise-grade behavioral oversight, continuous audit trails, and automatic enforcement to every AI...

South African boards heading into 2026 face a stark, immediate choice: treat technology spending as an engine for growth — or as the single greatest controllable threat to next year’s balance sheet. The plain truth, argued in recent commentary from local industry leaders, is that routine IT...

Microsoft’s new Cyber Pulse report lands like a wake-up call: AI agents are no longer experimental assistants — they are operational digital coworkers running across Fortune 500 workflows, and organizations that fail to treat them as first‑class identities risk creating a vast, invisible attack...

Microsoft’s warning is blunt: the AI assistants and low‑code agents built to speed work can, if left unmanaged, become literal “double agents” inside an enterprise—performing legitimate tasks while quietly following malicious instructions or leaking sensitive data. Microsoft’s February security...

Generative AI is no longer a niche experiment tucked inside R&D labs — it is rapidly reshaping how employees create work, make decisions, and interact with corporate systems, and that speed has left a sprawling governance gap that most organizations are only beginning to notice. Background The...

Australians and New Zealanders are taking AI home—and they want their workplaces to catch up, but only on their terms: more transparency, stronger controls, and clear security rules before generative tools become decision‑grade at work. Background / Overview Salesforce this week published...

Australia’s experience with AI is splitting along a private/public line: while the majority of knowledge workers in Australia and New Zealand are experimenting and building confidence with AI at home, they are asking employers, unions and government for clear rules, stronger controls and safer...

Bosses across law firms, banks and corporate America are quietly adding cash carrots to their AI playbooks — one‑time spot bonuses, “Copilot prompt” prizes and team bonus pools designed to reward the behaviours executives say will unlock productivity from generative AI. The rapid deployment of...

Intersys today published a freely downloadable AI in the Workplace: Governance Policy Template aimed squarely at insurers, MGAs, brokers and market service providers — a pragmatic, role-based policy pack that sets out mandatory staff training, data-redaction controls, centralized account...

Asia‑Pacific M&A is surging, but beneath the deal‑courting headlines a quiet, technical contagion is spreading: fragmented data estates, uncontrolled “shadow AI,” and brittle integration patterns are already turning many acquisitions into value‑destruction exercises rather than growth...

Microsoft's own research has pulled back the curtain on a growing, messy reality inside corporate IT estates: employees are freely using consumer AI assistants and chatbots—what Microsoft calls “Shadow AI”—and the scale of that unsanctioned use is wide enough to force security, legal, and...

Microsoft’s own research now says the UK workforce is saving huge amounts of time with generative AI — but that gain is shadowed by a fast‑growing wave of unsanctioned “Shadow AI” tools that could undo the benefits if organisations don’t act. Microsoft’s UK study calculates roughly 12.1 billion...

The manufacturing sector — long defined by assembly lines, shift rosters, and physical labor — is now at the intersection of a new debate: do AI tools truly deliver sustainable productivity gains for the modern workforce, or do they create a creeping dependency that erodes core skills and raises...

A new executive paradox is reshaping corporate strategy: while a large majority of CEOs privately fear that artificial intelligence could unseat them, those same leaders are aggressively folding advanced models into core operations—testing AI on the tasks that matter most to governance, finance...

There has been a sharp and measurable shift in how Irish mid‑market executives view artificial intelligence: the proportion who described AI as “over‑rated” or mostly hype has collapsed, firms are moving rapidly to formalise generative‑AI rules for staff, yet anxiety about data privacy has never...

AI is already everywhere in the enterprise — and the biggest short-term risk may be that most employees don’t even realize they’re using it. Background The conversation about AI risk has, until recently, centered on sophisticated threats: algorithmic bias, model explainability, intellectual...
