Welcome to our July recap of TechEDGE, the EndeavorB2B newsletter that delivers credible reporting and impactful, real-world recommendations to decision-makers who buy, build and secure technology.
In our July articles, the main theme covered the infrastructure of intelligence. Our two most-read articles sound the alarm about urgent cybersecurity threats. One reports that researchers have documented the first AI-driven ransomware attack where paying doesn’t fix it. The attacker doesn’t back up the data so you can’t restore it even if you pay — representing a shift in the economics of cybercrime.
More AI security topics: Another story warns that AI could reshape cybersecurity in just months. It’s quickly reshaping the security landscape and increasing pressure on IT leaders to strengthen security measures. And you’ll also learn how to embed security into agentic AI deployments so you can stay ahead of evolving risks.
Meanwhile, a great piece explores how to develop an IT emergency response policy before a crisis hits while we also have a good story explaining how CTOs can alight technology investments with product strategy and board priorities to prove tech’s value.
And staying focused on infrastructure, you’ll discover the four foundational pillars of data mesh and how they facilitate scalable, reliable and compliant data ecosystems across industries.
