Workplace Biometrics, Keylogging & Wiretapping Laws: Enterprise Risk Assessment Guide

For years, employers assumed that owning the laptop and the network meant unlimited monitoring rights. In 2026, that assumption no longer holds. Federal wiretap law, state biometric statutes, all-party consent requirements and the EU Artificial Intelligence Act each limit what an employer can collect and how. Most workplace surveillance software must weigh the competing goals of safeguarding corporate resources and respecting employees’ right to privacy.

The AI Marking Deadline That Applies Only to Systems Already Running

Transitional relief normally works one way. A new rule arrives, existing products are carved out or given years, and anything built afterwards complies from the start. ‍ The marking obligation for synthetic content inverts that. Article 50 has applied since 2 August 2026, and a targeted transitional period gives extra time to systems that were already on the market rather than to new ones.

Cyber Loss When the Stolen Asset Is a Trained Model

A trained model is expensive to produce, cheap to copy and impossible to recall. Where one is taken, the organization still holds it, and the loss is not that the asset is gone. ‍ What ends is exclusivity. Lost exclusivity is a different quantity from a destroyed asset, it carries no notification obligation, it appears in no breach cost dataset, and most estimates therefore put it at zero by omission rather than by judgment. ‍

The first 72 hours of a ransomware attack: Why restored isn't recovered

You start the day with reports that your employees cannot access critical systems.

Make life difficult for cyber criminals

This year's Cyber Security Awareness Month is encouraging us to "Make Life Difficult for Cyber Criminals" and I think this is a really useful way of looking at security awareness. We cannot stop criminals from targeting our organisations and we cannot expect every employee to recognise every attempt. What we can do is reduce the opportunities available to an attacker and make sure that one mistake, one compromised account or one weakness is not enough to get them where they want to go.

A Simple First-Project Workflow for Trying Seedance 2.5
