IT leaders are drowning in metrics, with many finding themselves up to their KPIs in a seemingly bottomless pool of measurement tools. The result is wasted time, confusion, and, in some cases, conflicting insights.

New research suggests, however, that there are effective ways to discourage the use of pirated broadcasts and boost payment for legal ones.

Aqua Nautilus researchers have identified a security issue that arises from the interaction between Ubuntu's command-not-found package and the snap package repository. While command-not-found serves as a convenient tool for suggesting installations for uninstalled commands, it can be inadvertently manipulated by attackers through the snap repository, leading to deceptive recommendations of malicious packages.

Generative AI continues to dominate IT projects for many organizations, with two thirds of business leaders telling a Harris Poll they’ve already deployed generative AI tools internally, and IDC predicting spend on gen AI will more than double in 2024. But the usual laundry list of priorities for IT hasn’t gone away. Fundamentals like security, cost control, identity management, container sprawl, data management, and hardware refreshes remain key strategic areas for CIOs to deal with.

The need for "glue" code is a fact of life for programmers. Sooner or later, that app you’ve crafted, that shining monument to software engineering, will need to be sullied by actually running it on a real system. Perhaps you need a boot script, or you need to build a container. Maybe it’s a tool that needs to be invoked as part of some larger orchestration process.

By Chet Kapoor, Chairman & CEO at DataStax Along with the exciting possibilities of generative AI (genAI), there have been concerns around job (in)security and displacement. Leaders are feeling the pressure to implement genAI quickly and automate as much as possible. Some will see this as an opportunity to “get lean” and reduce headcount. Others will keep the people they have and find new ways to become super efficient.

In the ever-evolving arena of executive recruitment , the quaint notion of measuring a search firm’s prowess by the girth of their Rolodex—or the extent of their social registry, if you will—is as archaic as the term “Rolodex” itself. It conjures images of dusty offices filled with towering stacks of index cards, each bearing a name and number, a relic of a bygone era.

Four years ago, German multinational Henkel found itself at a crossroads. Like many incumbents in the consumer packaged goods (CPG) industry, Henkel was slow to embrace digital technologies, resulting in a widening disconnect between the 147-year-old company and the changing needs of its customers. As Henkel CDIO Michael Nilles puts it, by 2019, Marc Andreessen’s pronouncement that “software is eating the world” had come true for the CPG sector, and Henkel was at risk of falling behind.
