5 Security Automation Myths Debunked

It has been argued that automation in the workplace tends to be misunderstood. Analysts are keen to point out that, despite myths to the contrary, automation isn't going to put most people out of work, for instance. Nor is AI going to become a real substitute for actual human intelligence. These are compelling arguments for rethinking the way we think about automation in general. But you can take the points further if you analyze the impact of automation on specific domains, such as cybersecurity. Indeed, automation is perhaps nowhere more misunderstood than in the realm of cybersecurity. To prove the point, here are five common myths about automation's impact on security, and why they're wrong.

Network-As-A-Service And The Cloud

The almost wholesale shift of enterprise workloads into the public cloud have cemented the appeal of greater business flexibility and agility through on-demand consumption of services (X-as-a-Service) and pay-as-you-go pricing.

How Do You Monitor Cassandra Performance: Key Metrics to Measure

Apache Cassandra is a distributed database known for its high availability, fault tolerance, and near-linear scaling.

gRPC-web: Using gRPC in Your Front-End Application

At Torq, we use gRPC as our one and only synchronous communication protocol. Microservices communicate with each other using gRPC, our external API is exposed via gRPC and our frontend application (written using VueJS) uses the gRPC protocol to communicate with our backend services. One of the main strengths of gRPC is the community and the language support. Given some proto files, you can generate a server and a client for most programming languages.

SBC Interoperability: How Do I know if This Works with That?

Growing up, I was the youngest member of my family, so I was not very fond of the game “Keep Away” that my older brothers liked to play. The idea of the game (it has a few different names) is that two people toss a ball back and forth while the third person stands in the middle and tries to intercept it.

How Real Estate Investors Can Use Artificial Intelligence

How do you determine whether one multifamily deal is better than another? Let me start by saying that a deal is only as good as the assumptions you’re making as an investor, and assumptions are not guaranteed to materialize. As a real estate investor, operator and syndicator through my company Blue Lake Capital, a significant part of our analysis when considering properties to invest in is looking at how the property performed in the past.
