Mounting congressional oversight means more agencies and orgs have more to explain

As AI accelerates the pace of business, organizations need to move decisions closer to those with intimate knowledge.

"I think it's an important time to be in this government technology business because we're able to shape what happens next," said John Boerstler.

Despite a surge in AI experimentation, many agencies remain stuck in pilot projects, struggling to scale the technology. SAP expert offers approach.

Agencies are reevaluating technology deployments with an eye toward future savings and more flexibility, expecting more funding and business shifts in 2026.

The challenge is not to halt innovation. It is to ensure that as AI gains agency, agencies retain control and remain protected from fast-evolving threats.

The organizations that get the most from agentic AI will be those that understand the threat model clearly enough to design against it.

For years, meeting room technology was evaluated primarily on ease of use and audiovisual quality. If people could walk in, plug in, and start presenting, the job was considered done. That mindset no longer holds. Today’s meeting rooms are deeply connected to digital environments, and security has become a business-critical concern rather than a technical afterthought.  According to IDC, 50.8% of organizations now rank security as the most important factor when selecting collaboration and videoconferencing technology, ahead of price or quality considerations. That shift reflects a broader reality: what happens in meeting rooms has direct implications for data protection, regulatory compliance, operational resilience, and corporate trust.  The meeting room as an expanded attack surface  Hybrid work has fundamentally changed the role of the meeting room. It is no longer a closed, isolated space. Instead, it has become a convergence point where corporate networks, cloud services, collabor

The way organizations support collaboration today still varies widely from space to space. Small huddle rooms, project spaces, and large boardrooms often come with different setups, different workflows, and different expectations.  For employees, that inconsistency creates friction. For IT teams, it creates complexity. And for organizations, it quietly undermines the promise of hybrid work.  What’s becoming clear is that the meeting room is no longer just a physical space. It is where hybrid work either flows or fails.  Meetings remain the backbone of collaboration  Despite new ways of working, meetings remain central to how teams align, make decisions, and move projects forward. People come to the office not to sit behind individual screens, but to connect, co‑create, and build momentum together.   In a hybrid reality, those moments increasingly involve a mix of in‑room and remote participants.  That places a new kind of pressure on meeting spaces. They must support different group si
