Hi and welcome to this edition of the Computerworld UK Weekly Digest. We will be in San Francisco next week for Salesforce's massive Dreamforce conference, but Microsoft made a bid to burst their rival's bubble this week with the announcement of new AI enhancements to its own Dynamics 365 CRM product. Expect to hear lots more about Salesforce and its own AI product - Einstein - from us next week. Still on the subject of mega vendors, Oracle had another tough week, with Wall Street railing against the database giant as it reported a pretty flat quarter to start the financial year as it continues to avoid reporting its cloud numbers clearly. Following the European Court of Human Rights verdict on the UK's use of state surveillance last week, Tamlin Magee explains everything you need to know about the lesser known Crime Overseas Production Order Bill and what it means for citizens' privacy. Data breach of the week: It was one of the biggest data breaches in living memory, but credit rating agency Equifax was fined just £500,000 by the Information Commissioner's Office (ICO) this week after 15 million customer's personal data was stolen. ICYMI: A top executive from British cybersecurity vendor Darktrace has broken out on his own to set up a rival company, with grand claims to solve the biggest problems the industry faces. |
