This Flash Report summarises developments during the second week and the agreements reached, and offers suggestions… Whitepaper February 4, 2021 Healthcare Digital, Innovation and Advanced Analytics Solutions Overview The healthcare technology landscape is experiencing a full-blown disruption with growing global health impacts from the likes of pandemics (COVID-19), global cyberattacks (WannaCry) and the overall push to innovative digital and advanced analytics capabilities aimed at increasing the quality of care, improving the health of communities, reducing costs and connecting the patient across various… Whitepaper September 29, 2021 Funding, Privacy, Security and IT System Changes Dominate Priorities for Healthcare Internal Auditors Key Findings From the Latest Survey Conducted by Protiviti and AHIA on Healthcare Provider Organisation Internal Audit Plan Priorities Even before the COVID-19 public health emergency, healthcare organisations were challenged in their mission to deliver high-quality patient care due to provider and staff shortages. Many healthcare organisations have been forced to make severe and often morale-… Flash Report March 3, 2021 Virginia Becomes the Second State to Enact Consumer Privacy Law The Commonwealth of Virginia passed the Consumer Data Protection Act (CDPA) into law on March 2, 2021, following overwhelming bipartisan support for a state consumer privacy law. The November 2020 election results provided the much needed impetus to strengthen consumer privacy for the Commonwealth of Virginia. State officials wasted no time in introducing the privacy bill. Now that the… Flash Report November 9, 2021 U.S. Department of Defense Updates Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification Requirements: CMMC 2.0 On November 4, 2021, the U.S. Department of Defense (DoD or Department) published a proposed update to its Cybersecurity Maturity Model Certification (CMMC) and defined a path forward that has Defense Industrial Base (DIB) contractors eager to understand impacts to their business and anticipated next steps in the evolution of the CMMC programme. In addition to simplifying and consolidating the… Flash Report November 9, 2021 The Bipartisan Infrastructure Bill: Who Wins, Who Doesn’t? It's finally here - a historic spending package from the U.S. federal government amounting to more than $1 trillion in infrastructure investments. The question now becomes: What's next? In May 2021, President Joe Biden, following through on a campaign promise, outlined a $2.3 trillion plan[1] to re-engineer the nation’s infrastructure. After weeks of negotiations over the spring and summer… Podcast June 1, 2022 Podcast | A UK-Based Quantum Computer via Amazon Quantum computing via cloud access feels global, but there are reasons to have these machines located in a particular region. Oxford Quantum Circuits released a quantum computer named Lucy on Amazon Braket that not only helps customers with regulatory concerns, but also brings an exciting new type of transmon technology to the industry. Join host Konstantinos Karagiannis for a chat on the coaxmon… Podcast November 1, 2022 Podcast | Trapping Ions for Powerful Quantum Computing with IonQ It’s hard to improve the purity of an atom. Identical and easy to find, atoms such as those in ytterbium can make flawless qubits. We only need to be able to trap and control them. Can using trapped ions as qubits therefore yield the most powerful quantum computers on the planet? How scalable is this approach on the road to quantum advantage? Join host Konstantinos Karagiannis for a chat about… Podcast August 24, 2022 Podcast | Designing Quantum Computing Building Blocks for the Future with Quantopticon Building better quantum computers requires improving every component. What if there was a quantum CAD tool that could help develop higher-fidelity qubits or effective quantum memory? Quantopticon has developed a software design tool to help photonic quantum computing live up to this promise. Join host Konstantinos Karagiannis for a chat about enabling the creation of futuristic components with… Podcast September 7, 2022 Podcast | Topological Quantum Computing with Microsoft Azure Quantum An 85-year-old idea may hold the key to nearly error-free qubits. The Majorana fermion has taken on almost mythical status, but Microsoft recently solved a critical technical hurdle to creating topological qubits with the particle. How close are we to quantum computers with this technology? What other future developments can we expect from Azure Quantum? Join host Konstantinos Karagiannis for a… Load More
