This past week has been a brutal time to be a Linux user. Under normal circumstances, we gloat at Windows users about how our daily drivers are virtually unhackable. We laugh about how they use malware scanners and antivirus software. “Maybe try a real operating system,” we say. But the Copy Fail exploit revealed last week, and now the Dirty Frag exploit that was just announced, have us Linux users eating a big slice of humble pie.Dirty Frag is the latest in a growing line of devastating Linux privilege-escalation vulnerabilities, and security researchers are already calling it one of the…
iOS 27’s unveiling is only weeks away, and rumors for new features keep coming. Here are the rumored iOS 27 upgrades coming for two of iPhone’s most popular apps: Camera and Photos. Camera app adding new Siri mode with visual intelligence The Camera app on iPhone is rumored to add a brand new ‘Siri’ mode in iOS 27.

It is no secret that the market for AI tools and services is rapidly growing. According to Statista, for example, the value of the AI market in 2026 promises to reach a staggering $335.29 billion and grow at a rate of 25.38% per year, reaching $1.3 trillion by 2032. This astonishing expansion has been made possible largely by various AI applications, such as in marketing & sales, customer service, automotive, and, of course, software development. Recognizing the potential of artificial intelligence for creating software solutions, many tech companies, from startups to giants like Microsoft, IBM, and Google, have invested heavily…
Cybersecurity in healthcare carries uniquely high stakes—when systems fail, the consequences can directly impact patient care. In this episode, Orus Dearman joins Zohra Ibrahimi to discuss how security leaders protect sensitive healthcare platforms while enabling innovation. Drawing on his experience leading security programs in highly regulated environments, Orus explains why governance is critical for AI adoption, how organizations should approach vendor ecosystem risk, and why strong relationships across engineering, product, and legal teams are essential to building a resilient security culture. Topics explored include: Why cybersecurity in healthcare focuses on patient impact, not just compliance How security leaders enable innovation…
AI’s cost paradox Something has quietly changed in how buyers talk about Artificial Intelligence (AI). The early discussions centered on feasibility: where AI can be used, how quickly it can be piloted, and what value it can deliver. Today, the conversations revolve around AI adoption costs and urgency. Buyers are now questioning rapidly rising AI expenses, even as headline model prices appear to be moving in the right direction. Reach out to discuss this topic in depth. There is no doubt that the per-token cost of Large Language Models (LLMs) from OpenAI and Anthropic has been dropping significantly. However, this creates…
A generation or two ago, when you had a medical question, the solution was obvious: Ask your doctor.But these days, as trust in doctors and other traditional medical authorities like the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention has eroded, Americans are more and more likely to consult their Instagram or TikTok feed.According to a major new study of popular health- and wellness-related influencers from the Pew Research Center, 40 percent of Americans — and half of adults under the age of 50 — get medical and/or wellness information from social media accounts.What they’re encountering is a chaotic ecosystem where MDs…
Every data leader has a version of this story. A regulatory audit surfaces a metric that doesn’t match across systems. A board member catches conflicting revenue numbers in two reports presented back-to-back. An AI tool generates a recommendation based on data that hasn’t been governed since the analyst who built it left the company two years ago. The specifics change, but the pattern doesn’t: Somewhere in the stack, data risk turned into business risk, and nobody saw it coming.In my first article, I covered what a semantic layer is and why it matters. In my second, I spoke with early…

Microsoft is weighing whether to delay or abandon one of its 2030 clean energy targets as it expands data centre capacity for AI and cloud services, Bloomberg has reported, citing people familiar with the matter.The target, announced in 2021 and known as 100/100/0, aims to match 100% of Microsoft’s electricity use, 100% of the time, with zero-carbon energy purchases. It applies on an hourly basis and in the same power grids from which the company draws electricity.The target requires more than annual renewable energy matching. Under annual matching, a company buys enough renewable power over a year to cover its…
