Network giant Cisco has recently acquired SPLUNK SERVICES UK LIMITED, a cybersecurity and analytics company, for $28 billion in cash.
According to Reuters, “the deal is meant to strengthen Cisco's software business and capitalise on the boom in artificial intelligence;” it is also this year’s most significant technology transaction.
According to a recent interview by The Wall Street Journal, Cisco CEO Chuck Robbins and Splunk CEO Gary Steele stated that “AI [is] central” to this deal, which they aim to “open the path toward cybersecurity and IT platforms that are more predictive and simpler for organisations to use.”
An early adopter of predictive AI, Cisco is now incorporating generative AI to problem-solve.
“Our customers have threat intelligence coming from multiple vendor platforms…Independently, they look fine, [but] when you correlate those [through AI]—we would then say, ‘Based on what we see happening at three different places of your infrastructure, we think someone is going to try to initiate a ransomware attack or something,’” Cisco CEO, Chuck Robbins said.
“We think about AI as human-in-the-loop, though. You are not just going to let an AI agent reconfigure your network…But how do you leverage AI to understand those next steps and help the user be that much more sophisticated in how they can perform those actions?” added Splunk CEO Gary Steele.

Last Tuesday, we celebrated World Mental Health Day to raise awareness about this critical issue and drive positive change.
This year's theme, set by the World Foundation of Mental Health, is ‘Mental health is a universal human right.’
At Firebrand, one of our core values is Care — we care about what we do, our community, our learners, our partners, and our team of colleagues worldwide.
The mental health of everyone involved with Firebrand is very important to us, and perhaps nowhere is this more clear than in how we support our learners' mental health on Apprenticeships and Skills Bootcamps programmes.
We offer a range of one-to-one support, from a cup of tea and a chat to signposting and more formal referrals to mental health organisations such as Mind or The Mix.
This support includes:
- Learning Mentors both on the Firebrand side and at the learners' workplace, keeping them on track with programme requirements,
- Success Coaches who help learners orient themselves and carefully plan their careers,
- Subject Matter Experts (SMEs), tech experts whom learners can reach out to for specialised help,
- Tutors who can help learners develop their Maths and English skills to the requirements of their programme,
- Learning Support and Welfare mentors who can lend a sympathetic ear to complex issues and help our learners stay on track,
and more.
With the right help and support, most of our learners go on to achieve their programmes and continue to life-changing careers in IT.

October is European Cyber Security Month (ESCM). Let's find out more about it.
What is ECSM?
Since 2012, ECSM has been raising awareness about prudent and responsible use in the cyber space. Since then, the action month has been a regular pan-European format.
ESCM encourages people to engage with Cyber Security issues and to take action themselves. By raising Cyber Security awareness, individuals and businesses can effectively mitigate risks posed by both unintentional mistakes and malicious intent.
What is Cyber Security?
This field encompasses protecting systems, networks and programs from digital attacks. Cyber attacks typically aim to access, alter or destroy confidential information, extort funds or disrupt normal business operations.
The increasing data volume and the trend of more people working and networking from anywhere have resulted in sophisticated attack methods. Organisations, people, processes and technologies must complement each other to build effective protection against cyberattacks. An effective Cyber Security program comprises people, processes, and technology solutions that work together to reduce the risk of business disruption, financial loss, and reputational damage.
According to the Verizon Data Breach Investigations Report (DBIR) 2023, 74% of all security breaches are due to human weaknesses. Human error, misuse of privileges, use of stolen credentials, or social engineering — people play an important role in cyber attacks.

At Firebrand, Microsoft courses have been a core part of our offering ever since we opened our doors in 2001.
Our learners receive access to Microsoft Certified Trainers (MCTs) and learn from the latest Microsoft Official Curriculum (MOC). In addition, Microsoft certifications form the basis of our Government-funded Apprenticeships and Skills Bootcamps programmes; learners earn both a certificate of completion for these programmes and, for most programmes, additional Microsoft certifications.
We offer both classroom-based and Microsoft online training courses, including everything you need to get certified at twice the speed.

The world's leading member association for Cyber Security professionals, ISC2 has changed the spelling of its name this week, from (ISC)² to ISC2.
According to ISC2, this was done in order for the name to be “more easily understood” and “more accessible” to audiences and search engines around the world. ISC2 has more than 500,000 members worldwide.
The change does not impact the content of any ISC2 certifications (CISSP, CCSP, CGRC, CSSLP, SSCP, CC) other than their logos being refreshed for consistency.
According to ISC2, “With the need for qualified and certified Cyber Security professionals growing exponentially, we’re facing new challenges...Our vision remains; A safe and secure cyber world.”
ISC2 was established in 1989. Their first certification, the world-recognised CISSP, was launched in 1994.
