Chatbots or conversational services today are either rule-based or AI-powered computer programs that interpret customer requests via natural language to predefined Intents and Actions. There is a number of AI conversational service platforms in the market today, however; choosing the right platform for your use-case or your organization as a whole can sometimes be very challenging; factors such as data privacy and security can quickly become a barrier for leveraging chatbots or implementing meaningful use-cases. For instance, in healthcare, using a cloud-based platform to build a Health Advisor that provides general health recommendations based on a member’s activity, diet, and medical history will legitimately raise data privacy concerns since sensitive PHI data will be going through a third party (i.e cloud service provider). When implementing chatbot solutions in these highly regulated industries (such as Healthcare) where data privacy and security are primary concerns, it’s imperative to look for chatbot solutions that can reside within enterprise firewalls (on-premise).

The goal is to prevent documents from a user’s managed device from being shared through such channels as a USB device connected to the machine, or via the corporate email system. Note that the user’s physical location could potentially have a regulatory impact, based on data protection jurisdiction (e.g. a US-based user working on a mobile device while traveling in Europe) None User activity from devices in any location, on any network Forward proxy covers most use cases, other than the access to sanctioned applications from an unmanaged device that is not connected to the network. This is the use case where the user is accessing an unsanctioned application from an unmanaged device that is not connected to the corporate network.

And, far beyond consumer applications of the technology, industries of all types are quickly adopting functionality to make their own business processes work better, faster, and smarter than ever thought possible. And with more than 962 million people aged 60 and over worldwide—comprising 13% of the global population—the need for extended care to the home is becoming a pressing argument for the adoption of new ways to connect to and care for the world’s aging population. As for the adoption of theses types of technologies, here are just a few statistics that show IoT adoption rates: * 60% of healthcare organizations have introduced IoT devices into their facilities. For all institutions looking to implement IoT technology the majority cited increased workforce productivity (57%) and cost savings (57%)  as key drivers.

Now, companies not only can know where assets are at all times, but they can also know the environmental factors surrounding the goods—monitoring everything from temperature, potential impact thresholds, moisture, and more—ensuring that asset damage is greatly minimized. When quantities reach a certain threshold, management can be notified in real time that additional goods must be ordered or, in many cases, the system using advanced AI can simply place the order as needed without human interaction—greatly streamlining the process and making for a better end-user experience knowing that goods are in stock when needed. By connecting the supply chain to other business units, companies can work in real time to increase sales and to reduce expenses on goods that are not as popular—better efficiency, better margin and, again, a better bottom line. In all, AI and IoT are being used in so many different ways that, though the average person may never realize, the impact on business is almost undefinable—making for a future that is far more efficient, far more manageable and, of course, far more profitable.
