We cover key topics for the IT channel, integrators, MSPs and vendors, offering in-depth insights into industry trends, strategies and developments.
Just two years ago, regulatory compliance (compliance) was treated in boardrooms as a necessary evil – a costly item in Excel that had to be minimised. Today, in January 2026, we are waking up to a new reality. The protective…
For the past decade, there has been one almost dogmatic rule in the IT world that dictates buying best-in-class solutions. Chief Information Security Officers (CISOs) built their digital fortresses by selecting individual components like building blocks, where the firewall came…
If we look back, the common denominator of almost all of mankind’s revolutionary achievements was speed. From the invention of the wheel, to the internal combustion engine, to the printing press, which radically accelerated the distribution of knowledge. The internet…
In growing geopolitical uncertainty, the mantra of unconditionally moving resources to the global cloud is losing relevance, giving way to the urgent need to build digital independence. Infrastructure leaders (I&O) need to prepare for a year in which physical data…
Until recently, in the world of digital security, the simple, analogue rule of thumb was ‘you’ll see it, you’ll believe it’. The year 2024 has brutally verified this assumption, and the coming months will finally bury it in the archives…
The traditional division between ‘office security’ (IT) and ‘industrial security’ (OT) is becoming a dangerous anachronism. With the coming wave of autonomous threats driven by artificial intelligence, 2026 will be a turning point. For systems integrators and technology decision-makers, the…
We require IT departments to innovate, implement artificial intelligence and digitise business processes. At the same time, we charge these same teams with an unprecedented amount of regulation and security requirements. In 2026, with increasing geopolitical tensions and the complexity…
Klaudia Ciesielska, Brandsit: Sharp is a brand with over 100 years of history of innovation. What made you decide just now to bring together three previously separate worlds – printing, visualisation and IT services – in such a fundamental way?…
The IT industry likes to think of security in terms of products. New generation firewalls, EDR systems, advanced network segmentation – these are concretes that are easy to price, sell and deploy. However, in the face of the EU’s NIS2…
The wireless market continues to grow, but the euphoria of the beginning of the year is clearly subsiding. Although the third quarter of 2025 closed with a solid result on the upside, the real revolution is not happening in the…
We live in a time of digital paradox. On the one hand, threat awareness has never been higher and multi-factor authentication (MFA) has become a standard in the corporate vocabulary. On the other hand, recent data suggests that Europe is…
Just a decade ago, the definition of a ‘secure business’ was simple: a robust firewall, up-to-date anti-virus and regular backup. Today, in the age of hybrid environments and ubiquitous artificial intelligence, this approach sounds like an archaism. Data has given…
The world of technology today is looking in one direction, mesmerised by the promises made to us by artificial intelligence. However, behind the scenes of this media and stock market spectacle, there is a brutal battle for resources that could…
The tech world is alive with headlines about the new leap in performance Google is offering with the launch of Gemini 3. Benchmarks, token processing speeds and ‘human’ conversational fluency, however, are just a facade. The real revolution – and…
The hype for artificial intelligence continues in earnest, but the uncomfortable question, “Where’s the money?” is increasingly being asked in CFOs’ offices. Recent years in the AI industry have resembled a gold rush, where the mere fact of having a…
Each edition of the AWS re:Invent conference in Las Vegas sets the azimuth that the entire cloud industry follows over the following months. However, if in previous years the theme was that humans were ‘assisted’ by artificial intelligence – as…
We all marvel at the possibilities of generative artificial intelligence, analysing its impact on the labour market or data security. However, we look less often at the bill this progress is footing for the hardware industry. This is not about…
It is rare in the world of government technology for budget forecasts to go up against macroeconomic gravity. However, 2026 promises to be an anomaly. Despite global pressure to cut spending and balance sheets, government IT departments – excluding the…
Recent years have seen an unprecedented democratisation of technology. Driven by the falling cost of computing power and increased productivity, artificial intelligence has come out of the labs straight to our desks. Looking at the pace of innovation overseas or…
In the media and at industry conferences, artificial intelligence conjugates the financial sector through all cases. However, when we look behind the scenes, the picture is not so crystal clear. A new report by Cloudera and Finextra Research acts as…
Every one of us has seen it in the grocery shop. Your favourite chocolate bar, which used to weigh 100 grams, suddenly weighs 90, even though the price on the shelf has not budged. However, the phenomenon of shrinkflation –…
