Our founder and president, Daniel Schwartz, was published in Forbes this week.

His piece takes on a part of the AI conversation that doesn't get enough attention. The impact on jobs is real and worth watching. Daniel points to a risk that sits right alongside it: we're adopting these tools faster than we build the guardrails around them.

He draws the line back to the Industrial Revolution, when factories ran without safety controls because the protections hadn't caught up to the speed of the machines. The same thing is happening with AI right now, and the fix is the same. Slow down enough to build the safeguards.

For over 20 years we've helped businesses adopt technology the right way, with the security and oversight that keeps it from becoming a liability. This article is a sharp look at why that still matters.

Daniel went to a real mall, set up a fake Wi-Fi network, and showed what can happen when someone connects.

It’s a real-world look at how attackers use public Wi-Fi to trick people, what they can see once you’re on the wrong network, and what you should do instead.

Before you connect at a mall, airport, coffee shop, or hotel, watch this.
