Aricoma has been involved in cybersecurity since it started its business in the first half of the 1990s. It actively examines clients' information security levels and the resilience of their technology. Clients often need to find out how secure their business perimeter is and what they need to work on. This is aided by a community of experienced penetration testers who simulate a cyber attack on a client's system. At both the network and application level, they can test the ability to withstand real-world cyberattacks from the external environment. But that's not all.

The future of AI? ChatGPT-based language models for businesses

Chances are, you're already familiar with it and are no stranger to the word "prompt". The use of generative AI tools has massively increased in recent months, but they can't be used everywhere. Sensitive corporate data doesn't belong in the public domain. So people are looking for ways to create protected systems that allow analysis and generation of information without data leaks. Aricoma's specialised team is working on this and has therefore also teamed up with the mathematics institute of the Brno University of Technology.

We kept getting rid of chip production in Europe, now we struggle to get it back. But it is worth it

17. 9. 2024

"We've been carrying chip debt since the 1970s, Europe was happy to get rid of chip production because it's water and electricity-intensive. And now we're slowly and painfully catching up. At the same time, we will need more and more chips, and even more sophisticated ones than today," says Tomáš Pitner, professor at the Faculty of Informatics of Masaryk University and head of the research centre, about the situation in which the Czech Republic and Europe find themselves. But in exactly which way?

The number of cyberattacks will not decrease. Let's face it and defend ourselves. This is how one could sum up the words of Paula Januszkiewicz, a Polish cybersecurity expert who spoke this spring at Security 2024, Aricoma's annual conference about IT security trends.

65,000 kilometres, 22 countries and 606 days. In 2016, motorcyclist and traveller Vojta Lavický set off with his then-girlfriend on the trip of a lifetime around the world. Thanks to this, he saw with his own eyes the remote villages of Peru and Huascarán National Park, the yurt pastures and wild horses of Kyrgyzstan or the Mongolian lunar-like landscape. The trip showed him many times that even bad things are good for something in the end and that the most important thing about travelling is to have the courage to actually go.

New technology has arrived and with it a lot of new questions. How many times have you experienced this? Lawyer Petra Dolejšová has done it many times, and right now she is dealing with almost nothing but the legal aspects of using artificial intelligence. "We revolve around questions of who owns the output from AI, whether it is possible to generate images of specific people and whether you can use styles such as of the painter Mucha or heroes from Marvel movies.
