I recently came across a video that referred to the enormous “value” AI supposedly generates. And then it clicked: that is the bullshit!
The presentation is ready. It has become a knowledge session about cyber security, linked to a current case that affects a significant portion of the Netherlands. The target audience is non-technical business managers. Interested? Fill in the contact form!
I read a white paper the other day from a company that is making a big effort to lead the AI transition for many large corporations. It was, of course, a huge hype story. However, seeing how enthusiastically "technology executives" are jumping on this bandwagon, and knowing how clueless these people usually are (there are…
I was recently asked who I thought would win the AI race. My answer was, "NVIDIA. When there's a gold rush, be the one selling shovels." The reasoning behind this is that selling the resources needed during a gold rush (shovels, hardware) will definitely generate revenue, while the participants in the gold rush will have…
The rise of AI in all (administrative) processes will change society beyond recognition; we are truly not ready for that.

Not long ago, I wrote that around €5 billion in damages were caused by transferring far too much information to a lab (which also had poor security). Meanwhile, the number of victims has already risen to almost 1 million! How do I arrive at such a high number? Below is an overview of the costs…
Be careful when moving a process to the computer (or even the cloud)! The possibilities for efficient processes are increasing, but so are the risks. In the data breach at Clinical Diagnostics, important private data was stolen from almost 1 million people. This data could easily be used for fraud, with ten thousand euros (or…
Data security traditionally had been an abstract concept that only techies understood and lawyers talked about. You'd think that after the recent hack in which sensitive data from half a million people was stolen, including their full name, address, and social service number (BSN), this would change. That does not seem to be happening anytime…
Cloud networking is unnecessarily confusing in dashboards like Azure’s. You need to simplify it.
How much common sense is left during a tech boom?
