System of Systems: The Key to Unlocking Building Intelligence

💡 Buildings are more than brick and mortar! They’re complex systems of interconnected technologies working together to create comfortable, efficient, and sustainable spaces. This #SystemOfSystems approach is revolutionizing how we design, build, and operate buildings

Why OT leaders are getting rid of VPNs

Real estate organizations commonly rely on Virtual Private Networks (VPNs) and desktop sharing apps to enable remote access. However, these technologies are increasingly the targets of hackers as they provide an easy point of entry for ransomware attacks and data breaches. Understand these risks and learn about a more secure alternative: modern cloud-based remote access platforms.

Understanding the System of Systems -Buildings as Assets

The final MondayLive! session in September, encapsulates the challenge and opportunity at the heart of asset management in smart buildings. It acknowledges that technology is a powerful tool, but ultimately, its success hinges on its ability to drive positive change in human behavior and organizational practices

The Open Source Revolution: Why Industries Are Collaborating Like Never Before

Open source is no longer a niche concept. It’s a powerful driver of innovation across all industries. By embracing open collaboration, companies can overcome challenges, reduce costs, and unlock new opportunities for growth. As the Linux Foundation continues to expand its support for open-source communities, we can expect to see even more transformative changes in the years to come. One of the most exciting aspects of this open-source revolution is the cross-pollination of ideas and best practices across different industries. For example, the energy sector is learning from the successes of the telecom industry in adopting open source for grid modernization and the integration of renewable energy sources.
