Fast-forward to today and we are living through another information revolution as digital technologies such as the internet change how information is created and communicated.

Several clients of ours have mixed digital infrastructures with education and e-commerce in mind that allow them to sell online courses and other digital products.

The mobile apps installed on our smartphones are one of the biggest threats to our digital privacy. They are capable of collecting vast amounts of personal data, often highly sensitive.

Increasingly, rampant cyberattacks target critical civilian infrastructures, including health facilities, pipelines, water plants and food supply chains. Attacks on technology firms have also become commonplace.

Throughout history, whenever new technologies have emerged that change our means of production and ability to communicate they have tended to transform society.

Each day on Earth we generate 500 million tweets, 294 billion emails, 4 million gigabytes of Facebook data, 65 billion WhatsApp messages and 720,000 hours of new content added daily on YouTube.
