No cyberattacks are good, of course, but some are much worse than others. And in the age of the Fourth Industrial Revolution, with increased connectivity and emerging technology, even disconnected network systems can still be confronted with potential cyber risks. And when it comes to critical infrastructure, cyber defenders absolutely have to get it right. On this episode of If/When, we discussed the topic of operational technology, or OT, Cybersecurity with Adi Karisik, Global Technology Principal – OT Cyber, ���سԹϺ���һ����������. Adi shared his insights on the types of threats that OT Cyber defends against, the principles for operating an OT network, the challenges of staying ahead of the bad actors out there, and some examples of successful OT cyber projects.

In 2005, the United Nations designated January 27 as International Holocaust Remembrance Day, with the stated goal to “mobilize civil society for Holocaust remembrance and education, in order to help to prevent future acts of genocide”. The date was selected as the day when Auschwitz ceased operations as World War II drew to a close. In honor of this, we wanted to produce a special edition of the If/When podcast. On this episode, it was a very special privilege to sit down with Leslie Rosenthal of Toronto, Canada. During World War II, Leslie’s mother Miriam was pregnant with him during her internment at Auschwitz in late 1944. By a miracle, she and her unborn son escaped being selected for death. Miriam was then transferred to one of Dachau’s subcamps, where Leslie was born at the end of February 1945. By a series of miraculous events, both Miriam and her infant son survived the war and were reunited with their husband and father, Bela.

Not all digital innovations and new tech is developed by folks working out of their garages. Sometimes, the next start-up that’s waiting to happen is being developed within an existing organization – even a big, global one.

Hence, the rise of the intrapreneur.

The beauty of design automation is how it leverages computing power to bring an unbelievable combination of scale and efficiency to projects, while also managing repetitive tasks and freeing up professionals to focus on higher value, higher thinking responsibilities. Thanks to design automation technology, you can really shift thinking about your computer as a tool, and instead look upon it as a partner. On this episode of If/When, we’re discussing design automation with Anthony Hauck, co-Founder and COO, Hypar, and Jerry Dehn, Vice President, Design Delivery Transformation at ���سԹϺ���һ����������. Anthony and Jerry shared their insights on some of the amazing things that design automation can deliver, how it benefits clients and the professionals who depend on it, and what organizations should consider when investing in design automation, upskilling opportunities and removing barriers to adoption.

When it comes to cyber-based threats, few things are as critical to safety and success as the element of time. With the proliferation of bad actors, malicious activity and the exponential growth of technology, it is imperative that to survive, you need to be able to identify and respond to a cyber threat very, very quickly. Sometimes it’s not enough to go it alone. You need strategic alliances to develop innovative solutions to stay a step ahead of the dangers around you. On this episode of If/When we explored the topic of technological alliances with Shep Bostin, Enterprise Architect for Hewlett Packard Enterprise (HPE), and Doug Wolfe, Vice President and General Manager for ���سԹϺ���һ����������.
