Today, I was reminded of two remarkably prescient 1997 ACM, Association for Computing Machinery presentations: the first by Nathan Myhrvold and the second by Bran Ferran. If you are not a member of the ACM - I highly recommend joining. Nathan Myhrvold The future of software, the software industry, and Windows '47 https://lnkd.in/egMwYty Bran Ferran How IT will transform the experience of telling and listening to stories https://lnkd.in/gqF7C7TK

Exabeam making the SiliconANGLE & theCUBE news: "Enhanced R&D and service in focus as Exabeam and LogRhythm finalize merger." Excerpt: Exabeam ... unveiled its new product roadmap and strategy, highlighting how the cloud-native AI-driven Exabeam Security Operations Platform will serve as the foundation of its future product offerings. On-premises LogRhythm SIEM customers will benefit from the analytics offered through the Exabeam platform to combat sophisticated and credential-based attacks.

SIERRA Ventures is back in The Wall Street Journal discussing our CXO Advisory Board, a consortium of F1000 technology leaders - CIOs, CTOs, CDOs, CISOs. Sierra built our CXO advisory board and launched our first CXO Summit (originally called CIO Summit) almost 20 years ago. "Mark Fernandes, a managing partner at Sierra Ventures, has experience working with corporate buyers. For nearly 20 years, Sierra Ventures has hosted an annual summit that brings together executives, including CIOs, CTOs, and CDOs, with founders and investors to discuss emerging tech. Though deal pitching and matchmaking aren’t the explicit purpose of the meetings, resulting business deals aren’t uncommon. Tenry Fu, CEO and co-founder of AI-related software company Spectro Cloud, said deals, particularly with large Fortune 500 enterprises, that might typically take up to two years are being sealed in months. Last year at Sierra’s office in San Mateo, Calif., Fernandes introduced Fu to a Fortune 50 consumer product manufacturing company. Fu did a roughly 20-minute speed pitch for the CIO and head of innovation. The two companies closed a commercial deal in the fourth quarter of last year."

“It’s all about the data” and a plethora of other advice on what is takes to secure #biotech funding in today’s environment from Rahul Ballal, Marian Nakada, Ph.D., Chong Xu, and Issi Rozen at MassBio’s #AlignSummit24, including: - have a clear - and realistic - plan to achieve clinical proof of mechanism - demonstrate operational execution by having and following a plan - recognize the risks and share the plan to derisk the assets and approach - understand that having data to derisk the asset is more important than building big teams and broad portfolios - before pitching to VCs, test the pitch with industry veterans to ensure the funding ask and timeframes are credible - embrace the resourcefulness and resilience of start ups - ensure a 2 year runway (because additional raises may take a year) - share with investors why the asset is important and how it impacts patients and their families - remain optimistic and keep going #venturecapital #IntentionalInvestments

Thanks to Authority Magazine Medium for the opportunity to tell the story of Tidal Cyber. Our unique approach to achieving threat-informed defense allows security operators to focus their activities on the threats that are relevant to their organization, and take action at the speed of their adversary. This, in turn, allows security teams to gain more control over their time, and save money. #ThreatInformedDefense #startup #cybersecurity

In the Creators Lounge at IMTS, Mika Devonshire, Go-To-Market Specialist, Security and Compliance, Google Cloud sat down with Jim Mayer, content creator, Business Coach, and Host at Manufacturing Culture Podcast, to discuss cyber security and data storage best practices for manufacturers. To aid cyber defenders, gen AI can be used to analyze vast amounts of data in order to identify anomalies, automate routine security functions such as rule creation; and serve as a helpful assistant to aid human analysts when triaging and actioning alerts. Over time, AI will help us go much further. Organizations can address their tough security challenges with Google’s intelligence-driven security operations platform, and a secure-by-design cloud foundation - all leveraging AI to assist security professionals and boost their productivity. #Security #AI #IMTS #Manufacturing #GoogleCloud
