Most digital-native (83%) and digital-forward (81%) companies list multicloud support as a consideration when implementing on-demand technology provision, says research from the International Data Group (IDG) and Google. Michael Cole, CTO of golf’s European Tour and Ryder Cup, is one technology leader who believes that adopting a multicloud approach is the best way to ensure his organisation’s on-demand IT systems and services are a stable platform for digital transformation. “I do believe that it is the right approach,” he says....

In the three months from May to July, a total of 106,000 transactions that contained words it deemed threatening or abusive were blocked, and those customers responsible were required to resend those payments using appropriate messaging, Cohen said.

Tell us about ControlCase and how you came to be involved in IT Security and Compliance? ControlCase was founded in 2004 when IT security and compliance were relatively new.

According to a new report from the North American Securities Administrators Association (NASAA), cryptocurrency scams are the number one top investor threat “by far.” NASAA said it is of the utmost importance that in 2022, investors understand what they are investing in and with whom they are investing when it comes to cryptocurrency. “Stories of ‘crypto millionaires’ attracted some investors to try their hand at investing in cryptocurrencies or crypto-related investments this year, and with them, many stories of those who bet big and lost big began appearing, and they will continue to appear in 2022,” said Enforcement Section Committee Co-Chair Joseph P....
