3 Orange is applying agentic AI across several operational domains, including 5G security operations, telco cloud operations, RAN energy optimization, lifecycle management, and incident management In sum – what to know: Operational outcomes — Orange said AI success should be measured by faster incident resolution, improved customer experience, and reduced manual coordination rather than AI activity metrics. Business value — The operator said agentic AI use cases should be prioritized based on measurable business impact, not technical feasibility. Trust first — Orange argued governance should enable AI adoption through risk-based controls, while operators should build trust progressively before expanding agent…

When a company falls victim to a ransomware attack, it is not uncommon for it to turn to experts for help.Specialist ransomware negotiation firms handle communications with criminal gangs on a victim’s behalf. They know how the ransomware gangs operate, how to buy time, and how to push back on extortionate demands. They can help manage the technical side of any payment if needed, and help a corporate victim assess whether decryptors actually work.What victims don’t expect is that their trusted negotiator might be separately sharing details of the victim’s cyber-insurance policy and negotiation strategy directly with the attackers themselves.That’s…

Grid constraints in countries such as the Netherlands are driving renewable operators to adopt new software tools capable of coordinating large fleets of solar and battery assets in real time The Netherlands’ worsening grid congestion is providing one glimpse of how renewable operators across Europe may be forced to manage increasingly complex portfolios of distributed assets. Businesses and energy projects in several regions of the country face lengthy waits for new or expanded grid connections as transmission and distribution infrastructure struggles to keep pace with electrification and renewable deployment. Dutch independent power producer DSG has completed the rollout of software…

Occasionally topping off the battery in a development board that is being used as a smart home sensor is a mild inconvenience. But when that sensor is in a remote location — especially if it is part of a large network of sensor nodes — keeping everything charged can quickly become a nightmare. As an alternative, many such devices are connected to a solar cell to keep the battery charged without manual intervention. The problem with this approach is that it introduces a lot of extra hardware and complexity into the equation.Andrei Pokotylo developed the Solar Devboard V1 to address…

When an Artificial Intelligence (AI) system produces biased output, fails an audit, or triggers an unexpected action, accountability often fragments. Data governance teams point to the model. AI governance teams point to upstream data quality, lineage, or usage policies they did not control.  Both may be right, that is the issue.  Enterprises are scaling AI in an environment where data, models, applications, agents, and workflows are becoming tightly connected. Yet many organizations still govern data and AI through separate operating models. Data governance is often centered on the asset. AI governance is often centered on the model, application, or use case. Risk builds in the handoff between…
