CTO in Finance (non-banking)3 years ago

Cloud, Web3 and ML are still going to be in focus.

Co-Founder and Director in Software3 years ago

3-5 years - more adaption of SAS ( software as a service ) and xAS ( x: many services ), 5G based value added services, IOT based data instrumentation, Effective Sharing the data without revealing the data. faster NVRAM memories, Edge computing where intelligence sits on the edge. Multi cloud, horizontal security and prevention, decentralised control, effective use of AR/VR are some of the trends.

In next 2-5 yrs, most important is nocode platforms for functions like 
- apps/CRUD/basic logical workflows

- devops
- decsecops
- rudimentary data pipelines (solving 60-70% of an org data problems)

No code platforms for data science models testing and deployment will also mature.

Beyond this I think web3 which still in nascency  in terms of adoption and understanding, will take some time to mature and gain mainstream adoption, probably a window of 10 yrs or so. 

AI is gonna mature in terms of the avoiding underlying biases a tech agent should avoid.  

CEO in Services (non-Government)3 years ago

My take
Distributed Ledger Technology
Edge Computing
Identity as code
Cyber-physical systems
Spatial computing

Chair and Professor, Startup CTO in Education3 years ago

I think Augmented Reality will be the next thing. This will make remote work more meantingful. Remote surgery and doctor visits become real. Autonomous cars will start to get to the market in 5 years.

As part of our NYSE IPO prep, we’re debating how to communicate our system hardening efforts in regulatory disclosures (e.g., SEC Form 20-F, SFC).

Would you recommend sharing % compliance (e.g., “85% CIS Tier 2”) or sticking to qualitative descriptions of how we identify and mitigate risks? Also, do SFC/ISO 27001 expectations require full ISMS integration, or is a % model acceptable?

Why do you think there are so few mature AI-driven autonomous pentesting solutions on the market, and why does this topic seem to generate more hype than in-depth technical discussion?
