In this episode of the Futurum Tech Webcast, Futurum’s Shelly Kramer and Daniel Newman tackle the thorny topic of cybersecurity and the fact that security breaches are frequent, inevitable, expensive, and risky. Security has been a foundational layer within IT since the beginning of time, but it’s clear that it’s not working. There are many factors that contribute to this, and there are some nascent technology solutions, like Confidential Computing, that we think are going to play an important role in the not too distant future. This is one of a series of conversations we’ll have on this topic, and we’ve got a soon-to-publish research paper on the topic of Confidential Computing that you won’t want to miss.
