A few years ago, during the Q&A section of a presentation I gave in Sao Paoo, Brazil, I was asked by the moderator what I thought were the biggest issues faced by organizations going forward. I indicated that it was probably the lack of respect, diligence, and care around issues of computer and network security and that organizations would end up paying a big price for their negligence in what we might call "technology governance."
What's that? Governance? It's the framework that an organization puts in place to guard against future issues, risks, and challenges. I remember saying on stage that what we were currently witnessing with the arrival of many 'smart devices' was the bad implementation of a great idea - since much of the technology out there was suffering from security flaws and other challenges. Organizations that were bringing them to market didn't pay enough attention to the issue of 'governance' - they didn't have an architecture in place that would guard against such flaws - with the result that a lot of problems were happening.
I was thinking about this yesterday while I was knee-deep in the research I'm doing to prepare for a talk to a group of 60 CEOs for an upcoming event - the topic, of course, being AI. My research was confirming my core belief that going forward, in their rush to implement new AI opportunities, many companies are going to fail with security, privacy, and other issues - and so we will once again see a new flood of bad implementations of a great idea.
Consider our past - and the Internet of Things, or IoT as we call it. It's a great idea - as the Internet made its way into homes, there emerged big opportunities for smart devices. Webcam alarm systems, smart doorbells, smart thermostats, and more. The concept is fantastic - hyperconnectivity allows the reinvention of previously unconnected technologies into something new. And so we saw the emergence of the Nest thermostat, the Ring doorbell, and other technologies.
Yet, we saw a really bad implementation of this great idea. We saw a flood of products that were not well architected and did not have a robust, secure architecture, and this led to all kinds of problems - essentially, smart home devices that were not secure and could be easily hacked. Think about it - the last few years have seen smart locks that can be easily bypassed; smart thermostats that can be remotely controlled; and even smart refrigerators that can be used to send spam emails.
I wrote about this a few years back in a long blog post, commenting:
Here’s the thing: most #IOT (Internet of Things) projects today are a complete failure – they are insecure, built on old outdated Linux stacks with mega-security holes, and ill-thought out architectures. My slide on that fact? Simple: a reality which is already happening today. This type of negligence will doom of the future of the products of many of the early pioneers.
The post, "Trend: IOT? It's Early Days Yet, and Most Products So Far Are a Big Failure" went to the root of the problem in this slide:
How bad an implementation of a great idea occurred? Things were so bad there a popular social media account, InternetofS***, spends all of its time documenting the security and privacy failures inherent to many smart devices.
In my post, I went further, suggesting that what was needed was an 'architecture' - or a governance framework for device design and implementation - that would guard against the emergence of such risks. The architecture would ensure that any product design paid due respect to a set of core principles - what I call the "11 Rules of IoT Architecture."
So here's the thing: if organizations are going to build a proper path into the hyperconnected future, they need to understand and follow my "11 Rules of #IoT Architecture." Read it, print it, learn from it : this is what you need to do as you transition to becoming a tech company. Some of the biggest organizations in the world have had me in for this detailed insight - maybe you should.
My inspiration for how to build the future right comes from Apple's robust Device Enrolment Program architecture, which lets an organization deploy, manage, upgrade and oversee thousands of corporate iPhones or iPads; and Tesla, which is not really a car company, but a hi-tech company.
And so in both of these talks, I put into perspective how Tesla has (without knowing it, LOL) been following my rules. First, think about what a Tesla really is - here's my slide....
Going back to my list of the 11 Rules of IOT Architecture, you can see that Tesla has met a number of the conditions ...
This architecture provides a framework - governance framework - that guards against and mitigates inherent risk. Over time, many organizations began to think about this type of thing; over time, organizations realized they could not rush to market great ideas with bad design.
Which brings me back to AI. Many organizations are rushing to get involved with this shiny new toy - either integrating it into their software platform or implementing fancy new AI tools. But the risks in doing so are real - private, internal corporate documents and information might be used for a ChatGPT prompt and over time, become exposed; private large language model systems might be implemented using the same documents, and a future security or privacy leak might expose those same documents to the public. Other risks abound. At least some people are worried about this:
Ahead of a Salesforce event focused on AI, the company is unveiling security standards for its technology, including preventing large language models from being trained on customer data. "Every client we talk to, this has been their biggest concern," said Adam Caplan, senior vice president of AI, of the potential for confidential information to leak through the use of these models.”

Bloomberg, 19 June 2023
Everything we have done wrong in the past might be repeated in the future if we don't pay attention to the issue - if we don't put in place a structure for AI governance.
Because the bad implementation of a great idea is just a great example of a really bad idea!

Pintura, brochas, escaleras, baldes con agua, escobas, fundas para la basura, entre otros implementos fueron necesarios para darle una nueva fisonomía al Centro de Desarrollo Infantil “Manuela Cañizares” del MIES-INFA que atiende a cien niños y niñas entre 0 y 5 años de edad, luego de una minga realizada el último sábado, por los padres y madres de familia, así como la colaboración voluntaria de autoridades y funcionarios de este Ministerio.
El Centro de Desarrollo Infantil “Manuela Cañizares” se ubica al norte de la ciudad de Quito y luego del aseo general y de pintura al que fue sometido, los resultados están a la vista: Un centro infantil limpio, pintado, con pisos lúcidos, sillas y mesas lavadas, todo puesto en orden. Lo que refleja que con voluntad y un poco de tiempo dedicado en apoyo a los niños y niñas, la minga es efectiva, por un lado demuestra el grado de colaboración y por el otro, aumenta la relación de amistad entre las personas que participan en ella.

Persistent Gender Inequality in Iraq Calls for Coordinated Efforts in Developing 2nd National Action Plan on Implementing Resolution 1325
Baghdad, Iraq, 3 October 2018 – Gender inequality continues to prevail in Iraq with worrisome signals that it is deepening, requiring intensified efforts and coordination in developing a new action plan on implementing UN Security Council resolution 1325, UN Representative to Iraq Ján Kubiš said today at the high-level consultation meeting on the development of the 2nd National Action Plan. Although he was encouraged to see progress in the protection pillar and dedicated efforts to strengthen the participation pillar in the National Action Plan, the legacy of the conflict with the terrorist Da’esh continues to hamper steps forward and there are other worrying signs of women being targeted.
Mr. Kubiš condemned the recent attacks against women, including the assassination of two women and the sudden death of two others in the past month, all of them active in political and social spheres. Other civil society activists including women are targeted by social media and political threat campaign, among others for their contacts with foreign embassies. This is unacceptable.
“Only once politically and socially active women are protected and safe, Iraq can claim to be making real progress towards women’s equality and empowerment,” he said.
The development of a new NAP with all the diversity and complexity of issues will require continuous coordination and collaboration across sectors, in particular involving civil society, and drawing from the lessons learned from the previous plan, the Special Representative said.
“By making your deliberations open to the society, by publicly broadcasting them you could mobilise even broader support for your objectives,” Mr. Kubiš said.
The Special Representative of the UN Secretary-General for Iraq noted with disappointment that political forces that negotiate the formation of the government do so, again without the participation of women. “We all need to ask: “when the political leaders intend to deliver on their pledges to empower women and advance their rights as a part of the democratic entitlement of all Iraqis thus strengthening equal representation and inclusiveness? The time is now. Otherwise, all the exclamations about commitment to equality of women and values of democracy continue to sound hollow.”
Mr. Kubiš outlined UN efforts in support of women empowerment, noting that UNAMI supports women parliamentarians in their quest to establish a cross-political women’s parliamentary caucus. UNAMI will continue to impress on Political Parties who are key to advancing the participation of women in all processes to include women in their leadership structures, urging men advocates to assume a more prominent role, and parliamentarians to consider gender responsive budget in the next budget law to enhance the implementation of the NAP. The UN will also continue to advocate for the establishment of a dedicated institution in the next government structure with budget and authority to coordinate the implementation of the NAP and national frameworks and policies on WPS.
The UN in Iraq will also mobilise support of the broader international community, including through the International Gender Group from among embassies here in Baghdad, Mr. Kubiš concluded.

During a working trip to Mykolaiv region, President of Ukraine Volodymyr Zelenskyy took part in the presentation of the projects implemented under the patronage of the Kingdom of Denmark over the region.
The Head of State took part in the presentation of the office of the Embassy of Denmark in Mykolaiv and the representative office of the Danish company Bright Bird, which deals with risk management and organization of contacts for Danish companies in Ukraine.
The Head of the Mykolaiv Regional Military Administration familiarized the Head of State with the work of the Regional Office for International Cooperation at the Mykolaiv Regional Military Administration established pursuant to the instruction of the President of Ukraine. The office coordinates and oversees projects implemented at the expense of Denmark, the main partner in the restoration of Mykolaiv region, as well as its partners, including municipalities, government organizations and companies from Germany, Japan, the Republic of Korea and other countries.
The Regional Office for International Cooperation is working on proposals for priority areas of economic reconstruction and development, as well as for eliminating the consequences of Russian aggression in Mykolaiv region.
Volodymyr Zelenskyy thanked Prime Minister of Denmark Mette Frederiksen, the Danish Parliament and society for supporting important projects in Ukraine.
"We need such stories of success with very specific results," the President said.
The Head of State emphasized the importance of implementing programs of patronage over Mykolaiv region.
"This is indeed a success story. The patronage program for this region, and especially for those regions that are under attack on a daily basis, is very important. This is an example that shows other countries what we can do. And they can help rebuild Ukraine now, without waiting for global post-war recovery plans. So help Ukraine, because our country is living in a struggle right now," Volodymyr Zelenskyy said.
The President emphasized that Ukraine will do everything possible to preserve infrastructure, institutions and security for business even in the face of full-scale Russian aggression.
The presentation was also attended by: Ambassador of the Kingdom of Denmark to Ukraine Ole Egberg Mikkelsen, Ambassador of the Republic of Lithuania Valdemaras Sarapinas, Ambassador of the Republic of Azerbaijan Seymur Mardaliyev, Bright Bird CEO Thomas Trust Have, and Head of Bright Bird's representative office in Ukraine Rasmus Ulfeldt
