The company is switching over to passkeys \u2013 a technology that utilize biometrics (facial\/print recognition) and PIN numbers \u2013 to simplify and speed up the sign-in process. (Source: TechRadar)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why this is important for your business: <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Passkeys are phishing-proof and more secure in that they use cryptographics (coded information) that makes the hacker\u2019s job much more difficult. Google has started the process with a brief overview of why they will eventually replace password sign-ins with passkeys. They also noted passkeys are a welcome alternative and \u201cspare people the headache of remembering all those numbers and special characters in passwords.\u201d Microsoft and other tech companies are doing the same. Which means we\u2019ll all be doing the same very soon.<\/p>\n<p><strong>2 \u2013 The best webcams for 2023.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Valentina Palladino of Engadget reported on the best webcams for 2023.

One the best deals yet for Office has surfaced on StackSocial \u2013 a lifetime license for just $30 dollars (limited time offer). StackSocial is one of the go-to websites to find product deals (computers, software, gadgets and more). (Source: Android Police)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Why this is important for your business: <\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Typically, users of Microsoft Office pay a one-time purchase price or a monthly subscription fee. But according to the Android Policy report, by taking advantage of such a low price point, subscription-based users save hundreds of dollars. Also, for those who only use Word and Excel then find they have a need for PowerPoint, they pay extra to download additional applications. If you plan to seize this cost-efficient offer, it will include the complete Office suite but excludes access to cloud storage.<\/p>\n<p><strong>4 \u2013 Zoho ramps up communication platform Cliq to take on Slack and Zoom.<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Tech company Zoho announced on Monday several updates to its communication app Zoho Cliq that \u201ccentralizes the workspace\u201d for teams that work remotely.

The company noted these numbers are a \u201csignificant increase\u201d from those found in their April 2023 poll (15 percent and 4 percent respectively). For this most recent survey, Gartner collected feedback from 1400 executives and found more than half (55 percent) have increased their investment into generative AI. Forty-five percent of those surveyed said they are scaling genAI investments across multiple business functions, and nearly half of those (22 percent) are deploying the tech across multiple functions. Software development, marketing, and customer service (chatbots) are the areas seeing the highest rate of genAI adoption or investment.
