Where Presidio’s experts weigh in on where technology is headed.

The first Statement of Work (SOW) I wrote by hand took two to three days, most of it spent going back and forth, rewriting scope language, and finding gaps later than I should have. My most recent one took two to three hours. What changed most was how I work with AI. I’ve been in presales for 10 years, and for the last year nearly all of my work has been in generative AI. I’m still learning. But one thing has become clear to me, and it rarely makes it into an AI business case: what you get back from […]

Every time an AI agent runs, it starts with a clean slate and no memory of what came before. Presidio CTO Rob Kim joins Q2 CTO Adam Blue to explore what that means for AI accountability, why changing models can disrupt proven processes, and how banks can unlock greater value from the AI tools already available today.

CEOs, CIOs, CFOs, and operations leaders need to agree on what their AI investment is supposed to accomplish. That means defining where AI can strengthen your competitive position, which opportunities deserve investment, and what governance you need to manage the risks. Only then can you judge the bill against the business value you expect it to deliver. The misdiagnosis The pattern is consistent enough now that I can almost hear it before the call starts. The client has deployed Copilot across the business. Engineering picked up Cursor on their own and likes it. A handful of use cases have shipped, […]

Building a Store With Signals Angular is no longer a Zone.js + RxJS-only framework. It is evolving into a signal-driven, reactive system similar to SolidJS and Vue. This blog demonstrates how to design a real-world state management architecture using Angular Signals. Why Traditional Angular State Management Often Feels Heavy For years, Angular developers have primarily relied on: While these tools are powerful, they often introduce unnecessary complexity for common application scenarios, such as: Common challenges include: Signals reduce this complexity by making state: A signal: const count = signal(0); count();                    // Readcount.set(1);               // Writecount.update(v => v + 1);   // Update […]

A practitioner’s honest take on where AI is genuinely changing how data pipelines are built, monitored, and fixed—and where it’s still just vendor marketing. THE SITUATIONThe noise arrived before the capability did Something unusual is happening in data engineering right now. The hype curve for AI in data pipelines is running months ahead of the production reality. Every platform vendor has rebranded their product as agentic. Every conference talk promises pipelines that write themselves and heal themselves. The skepticism data engineers bring to this is earned — but so is the interest. AI is genuinely changing how pipelines are built, […]

Turning fragmented technology signals into operational knowledge and better business decisions.

A microsite built directly from a meeting transcript often becomes too text-heavy and tries to do the job of a presentation deck. Decks are best for scannable information such as scope, objectives, risks, team structure, and commercial details. Microsites add the most value when clients can make live decisions, edit assumptions, test scenarios, or preview deliverables. The strongest approach combines a concise PowerPoint with an interactive microsite designed around one or two meaningful client moments. Give a consulting team a Claude subscription and a Teams meeting transcript, and within an hour they can hand you a working HTML microsite. That […]

The North America Cortex Partner of the Year award, in particular, recognizes Presidio’s excellence in deploying the Cortex platform – Palo Alto Networks’ autonomous platform for the modern Security Operations Center (SOC) – to support customers in detecting and preventing […]

Vulnerability exploitation is now the top initial access vector for breaches, at 31%, while the median time to fully remediate has slipped from 32 days to 43 (Verizon 2026 DBIR). Frontier AI cuts both ways. Defenders surface exposure faster, and adversaries compress the time available to respond. CrowdStrike recorded a 27-second fastest breakout in 2025. The constraint has moved from finding vulnerabilities to fixing them. A longer findings list does not make an enterprise safer. AI earns its place in four steps: validation, prioritization, fix generation and verification. Security and engineering teams still approve every change that reaches production. Presidio […]

Tokens are becoming workplace infrastructure. Like laptops and mobile stipends, AI access is moving from a competitive perk to a baseline expectation for knowledge workers. AI spend is reshaping the cost-per-hire equation. Token budgets could become a meaningful part of an employee’s fully loaded cost—not just another software line item. “No Hire, No Fire” is emerging as a workforce strategy. Organizations may use AI capacity to absorb growth while headcount stays flat or gradually declines through attrition. Token spend must be tied to measurable productivity. The advantage will go to companies that connect AI usage to defined workflows, trained employees, […]

DATA & ANALYTICS | POINT OF VIEW For two decades, building the platform first was the right call. AI moved where the hard part lives, and the old order no longer makes sense. Most enterprise data modernization is built in the wrong order. And hardly anyone stops to question it. Here is how it usually goes. A program is funded, and a roadmap is drawn up carefully, layer by layer: land the sources, stand up the lake, build the pipelines, model the warehouse, wire in the governance, and then, at the very end, deliver something the business can actually use. […]

OpenAI says an internal evaluation model escaped a sandbox and reached Hugging Face’s production environment, turning a controlled cyber benchmark into a

The Thesis  Most enterprises already believe their data is ready. They have a governed warehouse, curated models, dashboards the business trusts, and years of cleanup behind them. By every standard our industry has used for a decade, that data is considered ready.  Then the AI pilot stalls, and nobody can quite say why. The model is fine. The platform is fine. The data has passed every quality check. Yet the agent hallucinates a metric, joins the wrong tables, or cannot find the one dataset that would have answered the question.  The reason is not quality; it is that the consumer has changed. Data that […]

Healthcare organisations depend on technology every day to deliver safe, efficient, and high-quality patient care. From clinicians accessing patient records to frontline staff collaborating across departments, having the right devices at work is no longer optional it is essential.
