How Exploitation Claims Are Expanding Against Digital Platforms

Exploitation on digital platforms often becomes visible through changes that do not look legal at first. A child in a St. Louis classroom may start avoiding friends, an Illinois parent may notice late-night panic after messages, or a California clinician may hear about headaches, poor sleep, and secrecy tied to an app. These patterns matter because claims are moving beyond single bad actors and looking at how platform design, reporting delays, and moderation gaps can keep children exposed.

Collective IQ: DEX Made Simple, Fast, Without Dedicated Specialists

There is plenty of talk about the value of Digital Employee Experience (DEX). But how can you use it a typical day? Do organizations need a DEX specialist? And what about AI — must you master the art of prompting? During a casual conversation on the road to HDI Support World in Las Vegas, Dave Wagner (Almaden executive) and Bob Kruger (Chief Product Officer) answered these questions directly. Below are their key insights, preserved exactly as they shared them.

7 Proven Steps to Maintain Operational Continuity During S/4HANA Migration

Migrating to SAP S/4HANA is one of the most consequential system changes your organization will undertake. The technical complexity alone is significant. But the real risk is operational: maintaining uninterrupted service delivery while transforming the core systems your business depends on. Failure to manage this well causes outages, data inconsistencies, user disruption, and cost overruns. None of those are acceptable outcomes. The good news is these risks are manageable.

From Phishing to SQL Injection: How Breaches Actually Happen

Critical vulnerabilities are critical because they're easy to exploit — but most breaches don't even need them. Tony explains why phishing remains the dominant attack vector, why strong instrumentation matters for forensics (tracing an API call through a database to see exactly what was leaked), and how observability data becomes security data when something goes wrong. The system is harder to breach than the human. And that's the whole game.

One Collector, Two Teams: How Bindplane Bridges Security and Observability with OpenTelemetry

Observability engineers will spend weeks tuning instrumentation. Security engineers? They want a collector installed and logs flowing — yesterday. And that's actually the magic of OpenTelemetry + Bindplane: from day one you're routing firewall logs, endpoint data, server logs straight into your SIEM with zero instrumentation lift. One toolchain. Two teams. No silos. Filmed at Google Cloud Next '26 — Las Vegas bindplane.com#OpenTelemetry.
