Remember Moore’s Law? It’s the famous observation that the number of transistors on computer chips doubles about every two years, leading to exponential growth in computing power. Now, as we witness the breakneck pace of AI development, many wonder: Is a similar pattern happening with artificial intelligence? The

In recent years, open-source intelligence (OSINT) has emerged as a critical tool for gathering and analysing information from publicly available sources. As the digital landscape continues to expand, the potential for OSINT to provide valuable insights has grown exponentially. In this blog post, we’ll explore OSINT, its place in

In the ever-evolving cybersecurity landscape, the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has recently unveiled a significant update to its widely adopted Cybersecurity Framework (CSF). The NIST CSF 2.0 introduces substantial changes and enhancements, marking a pivotal moment for CISOs and cybersecurity leaders to reassess their strategies and

The “AI copilot” concept has recently grown increasingly popular in software and technology (aviation copilots are a very different thing). Multiple vendors now offer solutions that include an AI copilot to provide assistance to users. But what exactly is a copilot in software, and how does it work? This blog

The aviation industry has always been at the forefront of technological innovation. From the early pioneers who took to the skies in rickety wooden craft to the development of massive 400-ton aircraft that can fly halfway around the world nonstop, aviation has constantly evolved to leverage the latest and greatest

Zero Trust has become one of the hottest buzzwords in cybersecurity over the past few years. The core concept – that organisations should not automatically trust anything inside or outside their perimeters – seems intuitively sensible in an age of cloud computing, mobile devices, and distributed workforces. However, perhaps a controversial view

We live in an age where technology allows the creation of increasingly realistic fake videos and audio, known as deepfakes. At the same time, cyberattacks and hacking grow ever more sophisticated. Together, these trends threaten to undermine public trust and global security in profoundly concerning ways. In particular, the upcoming

As 2023 draws to a close, the cybersecurity arena is at a pivotal junction. The digital transformation fuelled by the pandemic has expanded the potential attack surface with a growing number of devices connected to the internet, increased cloud adoption, and more avenues for malicious actors to exploit. Simultaneously, the
