AI Growth Exposes Gaps in Governance and Readiness
Veeam’s new study of 300 technology and business leaders across finance, healthcare, government, manufacturing and tech finds that AI deployment is now near‑ubiquitous, with 95% of organizations using the technology in some form. Yet the rapid rollout outpaces governance, with more than half of respondents scaling back or delaying projects and 28% abandoning initiatives altogether. Talent shortages, integration hurdles and regulatory uncertainty are the top obstacles, while only 31% have completed a formal AI regulatory audit. Executives remain confident—80% say they can scale AI—but that confidence often rests on intuition rather than measurable metrics.
AI Is Reshaping the Future of Cyber Resilience
Artificial intelligence is dramatically accelerating cyber threats, compressing the window for detection and response to as little as 15‑30 minutes. The technology amplifies existing weaknesses in identity, access, and configuration management, turning basic gaps into high‑risk vulnerabilities. At the same...
Browser Threats Expand Across Enterprise Networks
