Whitepaper November 26, 2024 Network and information security directive 2 (NIS2) The European Commission has revised the NIS Directive, expanding its scope to include numerous new sectors. This revision aims to enhance cybersecurity across the entire European region by unifying national laws with common minimum requirements. For many companies located within European Union (EU) Member States, as well as non-EU organisations that provide services within the EU, NIS2 represents… Newsletter May 8, 2024 Sharpening the Board’s Focus on M&A Due Diligence Whether an acquisition is a stand-alone, complementary entity or an integration, the due diligence process is undergoing a paradigm shift due to the higher cost of funding and the impact of failed transactions. Boards should expect a more aggressive focus on due diligence.How has the due diligence process changed in recent years? For sure, the complexity of certain topics, such as environmental… Flash Report February 12, 2021 Executing Successful Transactions: Key Considerations for Buyers According to Harvard Business Review research, 70-90% of M&A deals fail. Poor planning and execution at all stages of the deal (the deal zone, transaction zone, and post-close zone) contribute significantly to this high failure rate. Further, Protiviti research has shown that the most common mistakes an organisation can make during a transaction include improper planning, poor due diligence,… In Focus August 28, 2024 NIST unveils post-quantum cryptography standards. What does it mean? Earlier this month, the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) approved three post-quantum cryptography (PQC) standards that constitute the first significant steps towards protecting critical services from quantum computers being used to break the encryption of sensitive and classified information for both business and government. Whitepaper January 13, 2025 Sanctions and Export Controls: The Current and Future Landscape for Global Financial Institutions For two years running, Protiviti has published a paper on the major sanction developments in the past year and our expectations for the coming year. We did this, in part, because the pace, scale and enforcement of economic sanctions reached unprecedented levels after Russia’s invasion of Ukraine in February 2022. We now seem to have settled into an environment where world events and geopolitical… Podcast February 20, 2025 Podcast | Topological Qubits are Here! Discussing Majorana 1 — with Microsoft Quantum computing will never be the same again. Join host Konstantinos Karagiannis for a special onsite interview at Microsoft Azure Quantum labs, where he was invited to see the launch of Majorana 1, the world’s first quantum processor powered by topological qubits. On the day this episode is posted, Nature will release a paper validating how Microsoft was able to create a topoconductor, or new… Podcast January 9, 2025 Podcast | ESG Mindset – A Conversation with Matthew Sekol In this episode of Board Perspectives, Protiviti Associate Director Alyse Mauro Mason talks to Matthew about the ESG mindset, technology and where we are headed. Matthew leads Microsoft's Sustainability Partners to help companies understand their challenges through data. In 2024, Matthew released a book called ESG Mindset, a guide for companies to think critically about ESG and take a holistic… Podcast March 19, 2025 Podcast | PQC-Powered Corporate Messaging with NetSfere Migrating to post-quantum cryptography across an organisation will take time. But while you are replacing every cipher to defend against the threat side of quantum computing, you may also want to add systems that bring new functionality and come with PQC out of the gate. Imagine a mobile messaging app like WhatsApp, but with NIST-approved ML-KEM under the hood and enterprise-grade controls. From… Podcast March 5, 2025 Podcast | Error Correction Breakthrough (20X Boost) — with Photonic Quantum computing needs low-overhead error correction to truly scale. Building thousands of qubits to end up with a couple of useful logical ones feels like a bad strategy. Photonic recently published a paper describing a new type of error correction code that promises a 20X reduction in the number of qubits needed to run quantum algorithms that solve real business problems. Are these so-called… Load More
