7 Best Security Practices for Your Generative AI Tools

Generative AI (GenAI) tools are transforming the way organisations operate, streamlining everything from content creation to workflow automation across sales, marketing, product development, and IT. With 65% of companies now using GenAI in at least one business function—and this figure set to rise—security is more crucial than ever. Without robust protection, these tools can expose your business to data breaches, cyber-attacks, and compliance failures.

Is Your Manufacturing Network Ready for the AI Revolution?

Artificial intelligence (AI) is reshaping industries at an unprecedented pace, and manufacturing is no exception. From predictive maintenance to AI-driven automation, the integration of AI into manufacturing processes demands more from enterprise networks than ever before. But is your Wide Area Network (WAN) ready to support the AI-driven future?

Top 5 Technology Trends Shaping Manufacturing in 2025

The past five years have been a whirlwind for manufacturers. From pandemic-induced supply chain disruptions to geopolitical tensions, economic shifts, and rapid digitalization, the industry has faced challenge after challenge. Yet, these disruptions have also paved the way for a more resilient, agile, and technology-driven future.
For IT leaders in manufacturing, 2025 is shaping up to be a year where digital investments will no longer be optional—they will be essential for staying competitive. As technology continues to redefine industrial operations, the focus is shifting from experimental implementations to full-scale digital transformation.

The SD-WAN Solution: Elevating Wireless Connectivity for Manufacturing and Construction

Reliable, high-performance connectivity is essential in manufacturing and construction, where real-time data, IoT devices, cloud applications, and AI-driven systems are becoming the norm. However, traditional wireless connectivity has struggled to meet the rigorous demands of these industries, often falling short in terms of reliability, security, and performance.

Escape Broadcom’s Price Hike for VMware: The Smart Alternative

The tech industry has been rocked by Broadcom’s acquisition of VMware, bringing sweeping changes to licensing models and pricing structures. Businesses that have relied on VMware for their virtualisation infrastructure are now facing significantly higher costs due to the elimination of perpetual licences in favour of a subscription-based model. With reports of price increases reaching up to 700%, IT managers must urgently seek alternatives to avoid budget overruns.

SD-WAN Leaders in the 2024 Gartner Magic Quadrant: Shaping the Future of Networking

In the fast-evolving world of enterprise networking, Software-Defined Wide Area Networks (SD-WAN) have become a cornerstone for organizations seeking agility, security, and performance in their networks. The 2024 Gartner Magic Quadrant for SD-WAN identifies six key Leaders that are driving innovation and adoption in this space: Broadcom (VMware), Cisco, Fortinet, Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE), Palo Alto Networks, and Versa Networks.

How to Secure Multi-Cloud through SD-WAN

SD-WAN is a relatively new technology that is being adopted by many organizations in order to improve their WAN performance. SD-WAN offers a number of advantages over traditional WAN solutions, including improved performance, lower costs and easier deployment. One of the main benefits of SD-WAN is its ability to improve video performance. Video is one of the most demanding applications when it comes to network bandwidth.

Difference Between SASE and SD-WAN

There are various technologies used for Wide Area Networking (WAN) connectivity. Two of the most popular technologies are Software-Defined WAN (SD-WAN) and Secure Access Service Edge (SASE). While there are some similarities between the two technologies, there are also key differences that make them well-suited for different use cases. SASE is relatively new, while SD-WAN has been around for a few years. However, to understand the similarities between SASE and SD-WAN, it is important to understand both the technologies and their evolution out of traditional WAN.

SASE vs SD-WAN: Things You Need To Compare

The network edge is becoming an important part of the enterprise-owned network that is being used to provide a variety of services. Two of the most popular technologies for the network edge are Software-Defined WAN (SD-WAN) and Secure Access Service Edge (SASE). However, with the rise of new technologies, the network edge is evolving. Traditional technologies are being rapidly replaced with new solutions that provide more functionality and flexibility. One such example is the evolution of traditional Wide Area Network (WAN) into Software Defined-Wide Area Network. While SD-WAN has been around for a while, SASE is a newer term that is being used to describe a secure network edge.

Cloud Security with SD–WAN

With an increase in cyber-crimes across the globe, cyber threats are becoming disastrous for vulnerable victim organisations. Whether these are phishers, scammers, viruses or even bots, they can be very dangerous to corporate data. During the days of the pandemic, corporate data had become more vulnerable to cyber attacks with orders to work from home. Hackers across the world are exploiting remote working networks during these unfavorable times, taking advantage of very minor human errors and weak network security layers.
