The field of artificial intelligence (AI) traces back to the 1950s. More recently, the increased availability of both data and computing power has bolstered rapid adoption of AI and machine learning (ML) solutions (collectively, AI/ML)

Privileged access is the gateway to an organization’s most valuable assets and is at the core of nearly every major security breach. Organizations must have a strategy in place to manage and monitor privileged access, as well as detect and respond to threats if they’d like to mitigate risk from today’s advanced attacks. Your application stack and infrastructure is likely quite complex and it can be hard to identify which assets are the most sensitive. And there is a never-ending supply of vendors knocking down your door competing for your time and attention. These two realities make it increasingly difficult to identify which security project to tackle next. When thinking about how to prioritize, it is advantageous to take a step back and think about your businesses goals, albeit in a slightly different way: try to envision what you would be looking for if you were an external attacker or malicious insider looking to steal sensitive data, commit Ransomware, or use your infrastructure for illicit cryptomining.

There’s no arguing that preventing failures and accidents is critical for industry. Unexpected incidents can grind operations to a halt for extended periods of time and necessitate expensive repairs. Just 12 hours of downtime for an oil production platform could cost six to eight million dollars in lost production opportunity alone. A single day of grounding for a plane costs roughly four to five million dollars. Because of these disruptions, industrial sectors are always on the lookout for newer, better maintenance methods, and the approach on everyone’s lips right now is predictive maintenance. While everyone agrees on the name, there is less consensus on what it means or how to implement it. But to truly unlock the potential of predictive maintenance, it needs to be paired with artificial intelligence (AI) and machine learning (ML).

Never before has the launch of a new technology so rapidly fired the imagination of enterprises and consumers alike. The arrival of ChatGPT in November 2022 showcased the potential of Generative AI powered by Large Language Models (LLMs) in addressing a vast array of new use cases. These use cases were previously unimaginable with conventional computing and analytical AI (now sometimes described as “traditional” or “classic” AI).

As organizations adopt digital transformation strategies to prepare for the future, a core idea for how to accelerate that transformation is the adoption of AI. While most organizations fundamentally believe in the promise of AI, they are still only just beginning to use it. Only 1 in 5.5 organizations are deeply committed to AI, while more than half are experimenting or beginning to see it around their organization.

Front Line Consulting (FLC) is a government consulting firm—and majority veteran-ownedand-operated Project Manager-as-Agent. Presently, FLC is managing a group of 60 publicly-funded projects for Travis County, home of the unequalled Austin, Texas. Front Line’s responsibilities include meeting a tight “substantial completion” deadline defined in public forum, coming in on (taxpayer-funded) budget, and keeping elected officials apprised of financials and material progress in projects within their respective jurisdictions.
