Friday Tech News

5/10/2024 - RSA Week!

Good morning and Happy Friday!

This is always one of my favorite weeks of the year in tech. The RSA Conference is by far one of the most influential events of the year, where new names in technology emerge in particular to the security arena. For more info on the history of RSA, read about it here. It’s quite fascinating.

No surprises this year for me with a lot of the press I read this week. As of Monday, I had nearly 30 pieces of news to relay to the community at large around the goings-on at RSAC.

So, what do I think is going to be hot next? I’m happy to engage in discussion any time. Just reply back to this email and we’ll have a discussion on what we’re seeing in the market!

Also - I’ve been given some feedback and want to start incorporating more of my own voice inside of these articles. Events that I deem to be the biggest of importance or magnitude will always come first and might even come with a different look and feel in the future.

Anyway, I digress. I hope you had a wonderful weekend with your family and friends and are looking forward to a great Mother’s Day weekend (buy your cards everyone!) with loved ones. Onto this week’s edition of FTN below.

Thank you so much for making this a part of your Friday morning coffee time. I'm Phil Moroni, and I'm an Account Executive in the Information Technology industry here with another edition of Friday Tech News!

What is this? This is a newsletter that provides updates and insights on the latest trends and developments in the technology industry. I am a professional who specializes in supporting IT leaders in evaluating, investing, and managing people, processes, and technology tools that support their businesses.

Each week, I summarize relevant industry updates from popular Original Equipment Manufacturers (OEM's), software publishers, and managed providers. The goal of my research and newsletter is to keep you informed about current trends and events that may impact your business from a trusted and reputable source. It's just information I'm sharing, and I follow and work with hundreds of partners in the industry, keeping track of their growth, changes, and evolution so that you don't have to.

Bottom Line: As you focus on improving your business through digital initiatives, my commitment is to keep you informed of the fast-paced changes and trends taking place so that you can plan ahead and stay ahead of the game.

Key areas of focus for me are:

  1. Cloud Computing, Security, Trends

  2. Developer & Security Tools

  3. Networking & Infrastructure Tools

  4. End User Tools & Workspace Tech

  5. Emerging Technologies and Future Concepts

If you have any questions, would like information about any specific vendors I follow, or would like to have a conversation about any topic that is challenging you, I invite you to engage with me! I value feedback immensely and would love to know what you find valuable about this newsletter so feel free to reach out!

Thank you for reading and stay digitally and physically safe!
