A single cloud pen testing methodology is a great starting point for businesses to create a checklist or assessment. Unfortunately, one methodology can lead to missed vulnerabilities in cloud systems. Cybersecurity teams should use multiple methodologies to create a comprehensive checklist and achieve better vulnerability detection
In a DevOps environment, Infrastructure-as-Code (IaC) can create bottlenecks and risks that include misconfiguration and inconsistent infrastructure. Platform engineering shifts these tasks to specialized teams to ensure infrastructure is automated to meet organizational needs. CIOs and IT leaders should understand how platform engineering can revolutionize their software development processes and then determine whether it suits their organization’s DevOps practices.
Healthcare practices improve their reach and level of care with telehealth and modern technology. Unfortunately, small practices are less likely to implement telehealth systems due to a lack of resources and other barriers. Now, system administrators can leverage newly emerging telehealth systems to increase efficiency and productivity in small healthcare practices.
Stanford University researchers have developed a prototype of universal computer memory, revolutionizing data storage with faster, cheaper, and energy-efficient performance. This type of memory integrates RAM and persistent storage, potentially enhancing speed and efficiency for modern applications. Technology leaders should monitor universal computer memory developments to leverage its benefits when commercially available.
While better applications and workflows are important to improving developer experience (DevEx), a negative work culture reduces developer satisfaction and productivity. Learn how to create a positive work culture as part of your DevEx strategy to increase developer retention.
Modern businesses must manage large amounts of data in various formats from different sources. This challenge leads to data silos and creates a negative developer experience (DevEx). Data integration can reduce these data silos and positively impact DevEx leading to increased satisfaction and retention.
With the rise of AI technologies, the European Union (EU) has introduced the AI Act to ensure ethical guidelines and transparency. The Act, the first comprehensive law for AI, mandates compliance from large enterprises to SMEs. Early action by SMEs will ensure compliance and foster trustworthy AI development. SMEs must understand how to navigate this new regulation and the provisions made for them by the EU.
Legacy systems or applications have performance issues, are vulnerable to security threats, and have high maintenance costs. Businesses can fix these systems by using cloud migration as a legacy system modernization strategy. Cloud engineers and architects can shift to a cloud-native approach to modernize applications, boost innovation and productivity, and reduce development and maintenance costs.
A positive developer experience (DevEx) increases developer retention. An ineffective workflow cripples software development and reduces productivity and satisfaction, which leads to burnout. C-level executives and IT team leaders must create effective workflows to benefit from improved retention from a positive DevEx.
