AI in 2026: Agentic Systems, Cloud Intelligence, and the Next Wave of Enterprise Transformation
Artificial intelligence is moving from experimentation to large-scale production, and the next two to three years will define how enterprises compete, automate, and innovate. By 2026, AI will be less about standalone models and more about composable, agentic systems tightly integrated with cloud, automation, and an emerging layer of physical and quantum capabilities. Organizations that…

The Compliance Countdown: How the EU AI Act’s Enforcement Phase Is Reorganizing Global AI
Europe’s AI Act has moved from legislative theory to regulatory reality, and the clock is now ticking toward its most consequential deadline: 2 August 2026, when the core obligations for high‑risk AI systems and enforcement powers fully bite. For global businesses, this is no longer a “future regulation” but a rapidly hardening compliance regime that…

Years of Silence: How Chinese Spies Infiltrated America’s Communications and Congress
Chinese state-linked hackers from the group known as Salt Typhoon have spent years quietly burrowing into the digital backbone of U.S. power—from telecommunications carriers and data centers to the email systems of congressional staff on the most sensitive House committees. The recently disclosed breach of House email accounts is not an isolated incident but the…

Playing Checkers While China Builds Chess: How the U.S.–China Race in Chips and AI Is Rewriting the Global Tech Order
U.S.–China competition in chips, AI, and advanced manufacturing is crystallizing into a long-term structural race: the United States holds a widening hardware and fabrication lead, while China is choosing to sacrifice performance for sovereignty, betting that domestic capacity and energy advantages will eventually erode Washington’s leverage. The Trump administration’s decision to approve exports of Nvidia’s…

A Silent Exposure: How Illinois’ Human Services Agency Left 700,000 Residents’ Health Data Public for Years
Illinois’ largest human services agency left sensitive health-related data for nearly 700,000 people exposed on the open internet for years—then waited more than 100 days after discovering the problem to tell anyone. The Illinois Department of Human Services (IDHS) now faces questions that go far beyond a single misconfiguration. The breach, disclosed publicly in early…

The EU’s Quiet AI Revolution: How the AI Act Is Rewiring Global Rules for Artificial Intelligence
Europe’s Quiet AI Revolution: How the EU Is Rewriting the Rules While the World Watches The European Union is no longer debating whether to regulate artificial intelligence—it is already doing it. Since the EU’s AI Act entered into force on August 1, 2024, Europe has been methodically switching on a comprehensive set of rules that…

The Ransomware Paradox: How 8,000 Attacks, State Hacks, and a 700,000-Record Breach Redefined Cyber Risk in 2025
Ransomware in 2025 reached a historic paradox: law enforcement notched some of its biggest victories against cybercriminals, yet the world endured more attacks, more disruption, and more victims than ever before. Instead of killing ransomware, the takedowns helped transform it—away from a few powerful “brands” and toward a fragmented, industrial-scale ecosystem that is harder to…
