Lunar Cyber Launches Token Exposure Monitoring as Infostealers Target Developer and AI Credentials

Why we need technology economists

The advent of AI is precisely why organizations need technology economists, not just IT finance professionals. IT finance is primarily concerned with budgeting, accounting, cost allocation, depreciation, chargebacks and financial reporting. These disciplines remain important, but they assume a relatively stable relationship between technology spending and business outcomes. AI breaks that assumption. Technology economics asks a fundamentally different…

Bedrock, Vertex or build it yourself: The AI infrastructure decision most CIOs get backwards

As he conversed with the experimental model, he felt the chatbot responses were becoming more humanlike. The AI programming…

Why technically brilliant PMOs still lose the room

If you’ve ever watched a PMO do everything right and still lose the room, you already know the frustrating part: it wasn’t the framework. In nearly two decades building PMOs across UAE and GCC government, energy and enterprise organizations, I’ve learned that the PMOs that get defunded are rarely the ones with weak methodology. They’re…

The Trump Administration’s decision to punish Anthropic for its stance forbidding Claude’s use in domestic surveillance and autonomous weapons by identifying it as a supply chain risk to national security was “arbitrary and capricious,” a federal judge ruled on Thursday. US District Court Judge Rita Lin said federal authorities had no legitimate reason to tell…
