  🔮 The Perimeter-Only Email Security is Dead: The Mandate for Layered Defense in the AI Arms Race. 🥽 Dive into the tectonic shift defining the email security market, projected to reach up to $19.8 billion by 2032. The crisis of trust is fueled by sophisticated, AI-generated threats, including polymorphic phishing and Business Email Compromise (BEC). This reality demands that organizations move beyond single Secure Email Gateways (SEGs) and embrace a layered, ecosystem approach for comprehensive protection. 💻 The modern defense is defined by a “better together” strategy: combining a Native Platform Anchor (like Microsoft Defender for Office 365 for baseline hygiene) with a Specialized Augment Layer. This augmentation, often an API-based Integrated Cloud Email Security (ICES) solution (e.g., Abnormal, Sublime), targets “human-layer” attacks like BEC and conversation hijacking that native security often misses. Research indicates that 63% of enterprises now utilize this “Microsoft...

  🔮 The past, the present, and the future of remote work 🥽 Dive into the definitive inflection point of End-User Computing (EUC). The market is fracturing, ending the two-decade reliance on monolithic VDI architectures and binary choices between complex on-premises VDI and exposed VPNs. This transformation is driven by the maturity of cloud-native control planes and the emergence of non-virtualized secure enclaves. 💻 The EUC landscape is now defined by a “bifurcation of philosophy”: the Cloud PC model (e.g., Workspot, AVD), which treats the desktop as a cloud utility with guaranteed Service Level Agreements (SLAs), versus the Secure Enclave model (e.g., Venn), which rejects VDI’s high latency and cost by securing applications locally on endpoint hardware. 🔎 Discover the essential strategic framework for navigating the new EUC landscape, structured by the three primary market dynamics of 2025: 1️⃣ The Operational Hinge: From DIY to Turnkey SaaS 2️⃣ The Licensing Reckoning: The P...
