Technology is not neutral or objective; it is fundamentally shaped by the racial, ethnic, gender, and social inequalities that exist in society. Though our omnipresent digital technologies can be used as tools for good, their built-in biases can –– and often do –– make these inequalities worse. As society adjusts to the era of artificial intelligence and automated decision-making, recognizing and mitigating these discriminatory practices is critical to ensuring a fair and just Information Age for all. 

Developing a robust cybersecurity strategy for your business is crucial in today's digital landscape, where cyber threats are ever-evolving and becoming more sophisticated.

Fire safety has always been one of the paramount concerns for individuals, businesses, and communities. Every year, fires result in devastating losses of life and property worldwide. According to NFPA research,  local fire departments responded to an estimated 1.5 million fires in the United States in 2022. These fires caused 3,790 civilian fire deaths and 13,250 reported civilian fire injuries. The property damage caused by these fires was estimated at $18 billion. Fortunately, with the advent of technology, particularly the Internet of Things (IoT), there has been a significant shift in how we approach fire prevention, detection, and mitigation. By integrating IoT technology into fire safety systems, we are ushering in a new era of proactive and efficient fire management.
